Secret Santa Swap Reveal PLUS My Own Reveal!!

Today is reveal day for the Secret Santa Swap!!!  This is my 2nd year to do this swap and it's always so much fun!

My Secret Santa (I had to do some quick blog stalking before posting this) was Ashley from A Cute Angle!  And she did SO GOOD!!  

Here's my box of goodies!!

Here's what I got:
1. Snowman Ice Cube/Jello/Chocolate/Whatever I Want To Use Them For Molds
2. Wet'n'Wild Nail Polish in Rain Check - shimmery blue....LOVE!
3. Glittery Reindeer Ornament - so sparkly!
4. Ghiradelli Mint Chocolate Squares - YUM!
5. Snowman Spatula - very cute!
6. Avon Skin So Soft Lotion - perfect for my super dry winter skin.
7. A Knitted Drink Cozy - at first I didn't know what this was.  My husband was for sure it was a bracelet.
8. A Glittery Cupcake Candle - too cute to burn! :) My husband thought this was a real cupcake and was very excited about it until I said it was a candle.
9. Black and Pink Slippers - I've literally worn them every night since I got them!
10. Some Assorted Tea Bags - can't wait to try these.
11.  A Rawhide for Ally - I was so excited when I saw she got something for Ally.  How thoughtful!! I was going to take a pic of Ally enjoying it but by the time I remembered, she already had it half gone and it wasn't very picture pretty with all the slobber!!

She seriously spoiled me!!  Thank you so much Ashley....I love it all!!!

I was the Secret Santa for Ricci over at Ricci Explains It All.  I think I totally gave it away when I sent her Posh samples!!  Oops :)

This was so much fun...can't wait to do it next year! 


And for my BIG REVEAL....


Some of you may know we have been trying for quite some time so we are so excited about this.  And even though we've been planning/trying for over a year, it still came as a shock.  We stared at the positive tests, David told me to take another and then another and then another.  After 5 positives, we were pretty sure.  But not certain!  lol  After blood work, I am convinced.  David, on the other hand, wants to see it before he believes it.  hahahaha  

We aren't sure how Ally is going to like sharing all of the attention.  But I think she will be an awesome big sister!   :)

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Loving Lately: My Discovery of MAC Cosmetics

I am 29 years young and I have JUST discovered MAC.  Yes, it's true.  I have apparently been living under a rock.  In a bubble.  Something!!  I ran out of foundation this weekend and decided to give it a try.  And O.M.G. I am so glad I did.  Ok - here are my face issues... 1. Oily Eyelids - eyeshadow creases within an hour...not fun. 2. Oily Face - makeup disappears and the shine is outta control...not fun either!! 3. Acne Scars - the dark spot kind...ugh!  4. Acne - why do I have acne at 29???  It just isn't fair to have to use acne treatment AND an anti-aging cream!!  I went to the MAC counter with absolutely no makeup on whatsoever....I was not lookin' pretty!  They were having a special event to market their "after hours" collection  and there was a model there with her husband who is apparently a famous NBA basketball player from the LA Clippers.  I guess I should've gotten a picture bu...

TRIA Hair Removal Laser

Ok...I'm just going to jump right into this.  Let's talk about hair.  I'm not talking about the hair on your head that you want people to see and love.  I'm talking about the unwanted hair that you loathe and want noone to see!  Embarrassing subject?  Yep!!  I have a medical condition called PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) that has many, many side effects that makes it extremely difficult to get preggers but that's another subject we won't get into right now.  One of the most annoying effects being facial hair!!  There, I said it.  Since high school I've had to deal with this embarrassing situation.  Back then, I hated it and I would cry because I thought I was the only one dealing with this.  Now that I'm older (and wiser), I can laugh about it.  And the more I talk to people about it, the more I realize women everywhere are dealing with this "lady with the beard" issue.  I seriously could join a circus, people....
