the month by iPhone :: December 2015

the end of the year! crazy how things changed so fast this time around. most of the month was spent getting ready for the move at the very end of the month, but then there were also some holidays in there and spending time with great friends (and having a little too much fun). of course I was also working! taking a couple weeks off of the Y for holidays really made me confused about what day it was.


perfect words of wisdom.


forgotten but not lost.


legs of steel.


sometimes this is what happens when I'm checking rooms... I thought it would make a cool image.


yes, I enjoy sitting on the floor.


Charlie Brown Christmas tree.


when your favorite Boy Scout brings you alcohol (;


made it better. gold stars forever.


dog 629 decided he had had enough.


black and grey with a touch of pink.


Bruiser the love doggie. he's so tiny that the tennis ball is too large for his mouth and he carries it by the fuzz!


Christmas present wrapping.


instead of camp planning, I ended up making 120 jingle bells for a swim meet...


mint chocolate chip cookies! I use Betty Crocker's recipe. (:


canvas details.


starting to move, with a raven skeleton.


deep dark red for Christmas.


tub resurfacing quarantine.


bringing more things to the new apartment. this was actually the second thing to go on the wall. (the first was my nevermore mirror.)
{print here.}


a slow Christmas shift.
{print here.}


 new shoesh, as Piper would say.


always only a ring away.


an important and fragile box.


when you don't have enough boxes and don't really care.


moving in a Volkswagen Beetle. fun times.


creepy yet beautiful.


sunset.


goodbye 2015. you've taught me a lot.

xoxo.

Influenster Spice VoxBox

I was lucky enough to be chosen to receive Influenster's Spice VoxBox, so here's a look at what was inside!


What's inside???


First glance.


Here's what was inside!

Botanics Organic Hydrating Day Cream :: This hydrating organic day cream softens and moisturizes skin for 24 hours. Active plant extract, Organic Rosehip Seed Oil is combined with Jojoba Oil and Cocoa Butter to instantly nourish and leave skin looking fresh and radiant.

I'm not a big fan of the way this cream smells, so I only used it once, but it did leave my skin feeling really great.

Foot Petals :: Give 'em the Boot offers a cozy 100% Wool overlay atop Foot Petals' signature Poron insole to keep tootsies toasty while absorbing shock for all-day comfort.

These are so cozy! My complaint with things like these is always how annoying it is to cut them out and then having fluffy stuff all over. They do make your shoes/boots a little bit more smug, but they're so cozy!!!

SinfulColors SinfulShine Nail Polish :: Get over-the-top shine! Introducing SinfulColors SinfulShine 2-step manicure with GelTech. There are 2 easy steps to a statement-making mani. Step 1: Apply 2 coats of any of our 27 bold, vibrant colors! Step 2: Seal with our top coat for added shine and wear!

The Mirror Mirror color I received is a deep dark red. I'm always nervous for these types of polish that don't have you using a base coat...

I have yet to remove the nail polish completely yet, but it did start chipping by day four, so really it's not much different to me than any other nail polish.

Good Health Veggie Straws :: At Good Health, we believe the secret to a great "Lifeitude," aka loving life to the fullest, is feeling good. That's why we pack our Veggie Straws with Extra Goodness! Like nutrients (vitamins!) from tomatoes, spinach, beets, broccoli and carrots to deliver a truly delicious snack so you can... Enjoy Being Good!

I am proud to say that this is the first product I tested. I have had veggie straws in the past, and I do enjoy them. If you've never had them before, they taste just like French fries but they are better for you. (:

SoapBox Shampoo & Conditioner :: SoapBox is a buy one give one company. For every product sold, a bar of soap or a month of clean water is given to a person in need! Our shampoos and conditioners are always free from sulfates, parabens, EDTA and artificial colorants and each one is full of hope.

My VoxBox actually arrived the day that I finished the shampoo and conditioner that I was using, so it was perfect timing. I had never heard of SoapBox prior to receiving these products, but I now am so excited about them because they smell amazing (coconut), they work well, and they help people in need!

Yogi Tea :: Enjoy two intriguingly delicious samples from Yogi's line of Energy teas. The Yogi collection includes 60 varieties of herbal, green & black teas rich in delicious flavor & healthful purpose.

I really don't drink tea. I mean, I like chai lattes, but every time I've had tea, it just doesn't have a strong enough flavor for me. I will say that it did smell really nice!

Not Your Mother's Whip It Up Cream Styling Mousse :: Whip It Up is a delicious vanilla cupcake scented mousse rich in moisturizers to tame frizzies and help thicken strands. It may smell sweet, but this salon formula styling mousse won't leave your fingers (or your hair) sticky!

I know nothing about hair and makeup. Seriously. I just throw on some mascara (and get it on my eyelids always) and sort of do my hair every morning, and that's it. This mousse smells so good and I like that it gets rid of some of the friziness!

I received these products complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster.

the month by iPhone :: November 2015

I nearly forgot to write this intro...

Well, November was an interesting month! It started off with a very long night with some wonderful people, and I was able to go out a few more times throughout the month to spend some time with parts of the #songfamily. I also spent some time with family at Thanksgiving, and there were Monday adventures in between.


big huge thanks to the wonderful people at the Inn at Cedar Crossing for letting us in a few minutes before they opened. going out for breakfast at seven means that we didn't sleep. whoops.


thanks, dancing.


three black stars for luck on my camera. here to stay. thanks to Teflon for making them for me. <3


I was so happy to find the last one in the Target clearance. I actually hung this up on the day of the dead, which is the second, not the first like I had thought!


beautiful maple leaves and the smell of autumn.


"or peas... I like peas too."


lunch at Coyote Roadhouse!!! (delicious bbq pulled pork)


new sunglasses <3


stripes of sunlight.


brick love.


lobby friends.


there were some pretty incredible sunsets this month... unfortunately, especially since the sun sets so early right now, I don't really get more than this for a view.


Lake Michigan mornings.


hiking on some Door County Land Trust property along the canal. yes, this is what I wore.


same place, different day. same subjects, different angle.


not everyone is allowed to leave a mess for me to clean up.


I straightened that painting to take a photograph, but the I took the photo at an angle anyway...


same room, the next day after realizing that the wrong chair had been in there for a month!


a dusting of snow on the way for getting Luna's snow tires on!


 baking Chai Spiced Snickerdoodles from Sally's Baking Addiction for Thanksgiving!


I totally won Candy Land (:


thanks to a conversation with the very convincing Barrett, I got this beauty back out.


Meadow Lane, Baileys Harbor


my Influenster Spice VoxBox arrived in the mail! I can't wait to try and share these products!

xoxo.
