Let's Talk: Summer Plans

A few weeks ago I shared our Summer Bucket List so today will be much of the same!


I'm joining Andrea & Erika for their linkup and today is all about Summer!

We will spend lots of time around the pool....
...with family and friends (that's what we'll be doing today!)

Watch some baseball....


Grill out and spend time with the best....



Drink loads & loads of coffee....oh and I'll be reading a ton.

See??


We Noah will play golf & I will watch from the cart reading :). 

 Later this summer we will celebrate this sweet boys birthday. 
Hopefully we will be invited again this year hehe :). 

Noah is coaching tennis again so I will try to catch a few matches!

And lastly I'll leave you will this......I start half marathon training in two weeks. Ugh I know.
Two summers ago I trained with family members and got all the way to 8 miles. 8 miles and I quit. So this time around I am signing up early and I am letting my readers know so I will be held accountable. 
My summer will consist of running. Lots and lots of running but it will be worth it!
Wish me luck!

There is what our summer will consist of and I can't wait to read what everyone else's will be like!

Happy Memorial Day and I am so thankful for the men & women that have died fighting for our country.

Let's Talk- Hair and Makeup

Today I am joining Andrea and Erika for their monthly link-up where they talk about different girly things :).
It's all about hair & makeup today!

I thought I was really prepared for this post because I took pictures of my makeup but then I remembered all of the hair products I use and then felt ill-prepared. 

I'll start with hair...

I was introduced to this back in January and I use it everyday. I put it in when my hair is wet and I've just brushed it. I massage in into the scalp of my hair and it helps to give my hair some volume.

I recently went in for highlights (I love them) and came home with some styling foam. My hair dresser, Angie, put this in my hair before blow drying it and I was sold! I love how my hair dries when I put it in!

My blow dryer is really old....like 6 years old. I honestly can't believe it's still kickin'.
I couldn't find the same one but if this ever goes out I would buy one similar to this. 

Most days I wear my hair straight because it's less work but when I decide to curl/put some wave in my hair this is what I use and it's the best!!! My hair usually doesn't hold curl well but along with the products above and this wand it curls great :). 

I know what the price is when you click the link and that is not what I paid for it. I follow a few "celebs" on Instagram and they have coupon codes here and there.

I was looking for a picture of just my hair and came up empty....
...but last week one of my besties had her bridal shower and it was the best I could do :).

(I'll post about this later.)

Now on to makeup :).



These are mostly out of order but you get the picture :) 
My sister recently started selling Younique and I love their eyeshadow! 

I am pretty simple with my Ready Foundation, I apply the Original Foundation over the Ready, and then some cheap blush that I've had forever :) 

It's from Walmart!


I use this brush for my foundation, one similar to this for my blush, and a random brush for my eyeshadow. 

Two things I am sold on. The Well-Rested eye primer and the Correcting Concealer.

They are GAME CHANGERS. Not kidding.

And then I use Mary Kay mascara (my mom sells it.)
And cheap Revlon eye liner it is.
