July update :)

So, it's already July and the summer is already half over...yuck. I won't ever repeat that sentence again. I'm sorry you had to read that.

Ok, now onto a happier subject....today is July 11th and even though the first sentence I wrote is technically true...we still have over 5 weeks left of summer and that's a lot! I am hoping to really tackle that summer bucket list the next few weeks and enjoy every second I can :)

We just got back from a little beach time this past weekend. I could live at the beach, I do believe but this time I was ready to be home. I think I was a little beached out, if that is even possible. Mollie is super active and at the beach, it's no different. Plus, this past weekend, it was HOT and HUMID. I mean, really hot and humid. But we made memories and ate good food and saw God's beautiful ocean one more time. The boys played putt-putt and I ate another one of those glorious crabcakes at Beck's. We found a new little doughnut shop called Ahoy Doughnuts and I have to say the Key Lime Pie ones are the best :) I'm thankful for every chance I have to be with my little family doing something fun. I learned a long time ago that you have to live or you will end up watching the world pass you by. I think about that every single day. So, we lived this past weekend and it was great :)

So far, here are the things we have completed on our summer bucket list:

*Putt-Putt
*See the ocean
*Kids cooking day
*Kids craft day
*Chuck E. Cheese day
*get all 3 kids picture made together
*find a hunting place for the fall
*see a concert
*see fireworks on the 4th of July

We are still working on lots of things and I can't wait until we have done them all :)

Happy Summer!!

July Must-Have Beauty Product

Happy July! Today is Monday, July 2nd and I have to say, our July has started out pretty good ;) Today we ate lunch with Daddy, took a quick trip to Walmart (for 4th of July stuff) and went to our neighborhood pool...in almost 100 degree heat. Now, it's about 7:30 pm...I'm exhausted beyond my wildest dreams and The Fresh Beat band just went off on Nick Jr. so that's my clue to get Mollie ready for bed. I'm almost there!!

Now on to one of the greatest beauty products I've found in a LONG time...I love lots of things and I rave about lots of things, but this product really deserves all the praise it can get. So, run, don't walk to your nearest Walmart, Walgreens, CVS or Target and pick up this fabulous product...

Here it is...Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain :) Instant love in my opinion and here's why...

1. It smells minty.
2. It is a creamy pencil shape that you don't have to sharpen! It twists up...super cool.
3. It comes in tons of really pretty shades...my favorite is Precious (the one in the picture). It's one of the prettiest nude colors ever.
4. It lasts. The shine won't last all day, but the stain will last a while.
5. It makes your lips feel great :) Not dry, not like you just put a dry stain on them and now they are stiff, no way. This stuff is creamy and light and feels amazing.

Ok, now, go get you one. I mean it. I got mine last night. I've worn it all day and will tomorrow too :)

Happy July!!
