Is your vote amazeballs or hell to the no?! 

I just had to share this new crazy lipstick color—Blackberry— with everyone on Facebook. The results were overwhelmingly hell to the no (75%) but I honestly kinda like it. It definitely needs stronger make-up (which I am not good at) and is definitely a good color for Halloween…

But I changed into this for Curriculum Night at Owen’s school. 🙂

 

I couldn’t do this again if I tried for a hundred years.

I was trying to toss the ball over the railing. I watched as it went and saw it hit the top of the railing so I knew I didn’t make it over—I instantly recoiled thinking it was going to smash into the tile floor and break something and I didn’t want to see it. But nothing happened. No noise. No smashing. Huh? What happened?

Look closely…

  

Do you see it? 

 

Woodland Spirit Week Day 2 

Day 1 was PJ day for Owen and the color green for Katie. I didn’t get a pic before he left and she wanted to wear her pink hip hop outfit… Day 2 went a little better with sports day for Owen and the color white for Katie.

We don’t have many white clothes since they get dirty too easily, but this was the gym shirt I made for her before learning she didn’t need one. 🙂

 

Owen and mom shoot arrows!

Practicing their positioning and stance.

       
   
 

During the last five minutes of class the parents were invited to shoot. Owen immediately wanted me to try and I totally wanted to! I initially grabbed and held the bow the wrong way and Owen helped me out. As I typically do, I had beginners luck and hit the board on my very first shot…then missed the next four (but only by a smidge). It was fun!

 

Prepping for a new Facebook profile pic!

Since I’m promoting my business this month, I figured it would be better to showcase a better color lipstick—so I picked a new color that just arrived: Purple Reign! And since it’s such a bright color, I did a full face of makeup as well!!

And an artsy way to showcase all the products I was wearing:

Happy 45th Tom!

Tom got a half day off work so we celebrated his birthday in style at our first local Diners, Drive-ins and Dives restaurant: The Shanty. I started with Pineapple Sangria…

Then we tried one of the dishes they showcased on the show: Whiskey Shrimp. It was delish.

 

And another dish they profiled in DD&D: Blackened Conch Filet. Super yummy.

 
  

And a free birthday dessert!

 

Then we went to check out the Costco in Wisconsin—just a few miles away!
