Favorite Things Thursday

Because all motivation is gone...here are some of my favorite things.

I'm so glad my state provides this. Read more about it in tomorrow's post.

This for sure...I WILL have an awesome tan this summer with all the free time I will have. I'm all about a tan...without the cancer.

As I've mentioned before, I recently started couponing with my best friend...and this has been a God send!

I love this stuff! I bought it awhile back when my mom was still an Avon rep and just recently tried it. It makes my face so smoothe!

I'm super picky about eye shadow...especially since my eyes are so sensitive but I love this! It stays on all day!!

Those are a few of my current favorite things...until next time...

Favorite Things Thursday

Look at me go! Two weeks in a row for FTT...nevermind that 3-4 page memoir I need to write...or that looming Math test...or the other 47 (seriously) books I need to read for Children's Lit...or sleep...I have things I need to share!

I guess I could have waited to share my love of these until today...but I couldn't! I HAD to get the urge to buy more out of my system ASAP. My husband probably would have fainted if one more cardboard box from them showed up on our doorstep!

I made these guys for Super Bowl Sunday and oh man...yumm-o! They are pretty rich though so just a small piece did it for me!

We're teaching our children responsibilities...and of course along with responsibilities comes rewards and consequences. We had a handy dandy dry erase chore chart for them UNTIL they got a hold of the Sharpie and wrote on it. ;) So, I was looking online for a new one and found something even better. It allows the girls to log in and check off their chores and as they do this they earn "points" which in turn allows them to "buy" different things from their parents or they can set up a savings goal. It's really cool and I think the girls are going to love it. You can customize it to fit your family!

And as our little ladie's are getting older and wanting to get on the internet to play games I've found this to help protect them. Of course we are never far when they are online but we all know how easy it is to stumble across things online. Our computer is in our family room so we can always see the screen but it's nice to know that this program will block even unwanted ads! And best of all...It's totally free!!!

That's all for today! Please...tell me your favorite things!

Favorite Things Thursday

I know I'm coming at you guys a little late on this Thursday evening but I wanted to share a few more of my favorite things!

Since I've already proclaimed my love for Lush bath products...I wanted to share this sweet website. Seriously, how cute are those cupcakes?! I haven't tried them YET, but I assure you I will soon!

My sister (matron of honor in my wedding) bought these super cute invites for my bridal shower. There are so many cute invitations, announcments, stamps, stationary, and much more on this website!

My little ladies love to play online games here every once in awhile. Of course I'd rather see them play outside but this mama doesn't always get her way! Evidently they play on this website at school because my oldest lady showed ME how to log in using her username! Not sure how I feel about the school setting up any type of account online for my children....::sigh::


I really want my sister to have a baby boy just so I can buy him this bedding! C'mon, you can't tell me that's not adorable?! I'll be ok if she has a girl too...because I can always buy this.

Now, I'm not a scrapbooker...but I wish I was! I do love stamping though! My sister and I go to stamp camps together quite often. We already know what we're going to make as a favor for her baby shower that her best friend and I are throwing! They are super cute and I will share pictures at a later date.

Hope you enjoy a few more of my favorite things! Tell me, what are some of YOUR favorite things??

Favorite Things Thursday

I thought I would share a few of my favorite websites with my fellow bloggy friends. (all 2 of you ;)

First I would like to share my love for these things. There really isn't anything I can think of that can make a hot bath better! Oh except maybe these. That is of course if you like hot BUBBLE baths!

A new found love is this place. I just ordered the cutest address labels ever from them with my brand new last name. Not to mention...the prices are wonderful.

I also just recently found this place. This one is for all my fellow college students. With tuition going up 6% just about every semester it seems, I know books can be an issue. Well for me anyway. I was online buying my books for this semester and realized my math book would cost well over $100 so I began my search for a used cheaper one...and stumbled upon this website. I'm proud to say I paid $35.99 to RENT my math book for one semester. Awesome huh?

I made our Christmas cards here this year. They turned out awesome (besides the fact that they sort of cropped out part of my youngest daughter's body in one photo) That mistake was partly my fault because I waited so long to order them. The folks over there said they would be happy to give me a code so I could reorder them for free...I just didn't have time. There's nothing I love more than excellent customer service.

I also fell in love with this business. Tasha was responsible for my pre bridal pictures and they turned out amazing!! (Can I say that since they are pictures of me?! I don't mean it conceited.) Oh how I wish she did weddings...I would for sure have hired her for that too! Tasha is so friendly and absolutely adorable too! She had the cutest baby bump ever when we took these photos...now she has the cutest baby boy! Oh...and she patiently waited for me as I was running WAY behind that day. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer (in the Houston area) for their newborns, children, or families! I bet she'd even do another pre bridal session!

And last...but certainly not least...my secret addiction. I mean do I need to say more?! 1-click shopping?? Amazing...oh and maybe a little hard on the pocket book. =)

Well that's it for today. I'll share more at a later time...because I have TONS of favorite places bookmarked! Now go...go check out all these wonderful places!
