Frankie's 3rd Birthday!

Yesterday was my sweet angel's 3rd birthday... and I felt like a horrible mom because we already had plans to take the kids to Kings Island before they start back to school. So that morning we made special time for him :) Then he went and played with my mom and her dog all day lol

I remember the first day we went and got him...he was so cute and sweet :) Look what I found...

Aww look at him coming home for the first time ;) This was right after we picked him up and got him in the car! He was a little greasy and hadn't had his first bath yet! Brings back the memories lol

Ok so back to his bday...after he slept in...

We got up, decorated the dining room...

 Then took him to his favorite store, the Barkery!
He rode in his favorite spot (aka Jakes carseat ha)

Then looked out the window and tried to show off his Birthday shirt :)

We made it and he was so excited when we pulled up!

He had fun picking out some new toys and then we got some yummy treats and cupcakes for him!

Frankie enjoyed his new toys... and a new Pee Pad that looks like grass LOL hopefully this will help him not pee in front of the back door anymore when we are not home! ;)

Frankie LOVED his one day a year of getting on the dining room table to enjoy his treats :)

He even is testing the waters with his new grassy indoor space hahahaha

 Then just for fun, we played put the paw on the doggy and ate cupcakes :)

It was fun!

Me and my sweet boy...

Wish I could have had him a major dog party but unfortunately I couldn't pull it off this year..maybe next year :)

Birthday Post!

First and most importantly... today is my best friend since the 5th grade, Chrissy's, 27th Birthday!
Happy Birthday CC I love you!

For her birthday we went to Riverbend last weekend to see Rascall Flatts, Sara Evans, Easton Corbin & Justin Moore... we were so pumped... sadly to say it wasn't the best concert :(

We got stuck in traffic and missed Easton & Justin :( Bummer!

And by the time we got there, it was not only 107 degree heat index at 8pm at night with absolutely ZERO breeze, but it was so crowded I wanted to die ha

On the lawn at Riverbend, you are sure to see some interesting things.. I wish I would have gotten more pics but my phone died... I will have to get some from someone else and post but we encountered people throwing up allllll over the lawn right next to us (vomit), two trashbag girls got in a fist fight and one left with her entire face covered in blood (not a lie, Chrissy being a nurse wanted to help, I wouldn't let her lol).

This girl and her friends creatively made these hats, she thought we loved them thats why we were snapping pics, in reality we wanted to blog about it LOL (I am not a mean person I promise, this was just too funny)

A Bud Light hat... surely she wasn't the first to think of that?!?

Chrissy's hair needed a little Southern Country love for the concert so I braided her up... so cute!

Our group snapshot :) Please ignore the dripping sweat!

I was so excited to wear the pink cowboy boots... and look what I found to wear with them, at Target of all places for $20 ... pink denim jorts! Loved them! lol Don't Judge!

(My hair looked whack and Chris didn't tell me when he took the pic ha so that's why I am headless)

Despite all the drunk high school kids throwing up and the 110 degree sweating heat, we had a pretty good time, stopped at White Castle on the way home and had a dance party in the car! That's how we party ;) I have never felt so old until that night, let me tell you!

The next day we went to Chris's nephew, Jack's, 1st Birthday Party!! It was so cute! His sister, Lisa, is so crafty and creative... how cute is this...??

Jack's Favorite Animal is a Horse - so these cookies were so cute!

She had everything so blue and cute!

Before presents and food the kiddos and Chris fished a little in their pond...

Ava caught a HUGE bass first! So excited! You would have thought she won the lotto!

Then Ella caught a Blue Gill :)

 Look at that face! Too cute!!

Lisa & Paul with Baby Jack :)

CAKE TIME....

Jack's Smash Cake was Out.Of.Control!

Look at that outfit after the smash cake... hahahahahaha too cute!

After cake, a bath was an absolute necessary! Is that the cutest pic ever? What a framer!!

His big present of the night... His first motorized vehicle ha

Chris and Jack in his "My Uncle Rocks" shirt we found him :) Too Cute!

We had such a great, fun time! It was a great party!

I am sure Jack enjoyed all his presents and family being there... but if he really understood, I think he would say this is the best present he is getting....

 Yayyy another new little Baby!

So Excited!

Speaking of Birthdays.... only 2 more days until this sweet little angel's 3rd Birthday...

I may or may not have already purchased minimal decorations for his bday (will post this weekend) and I also may or may not have DVR'd Martha Stewart's show last week about "Puppy Themed Parties" ha!

Don't forget about my give-away!!

For the Ladies... Leg Shine Reveal/Give-Away!!

Sorry it has taken me so long to post this!! I have been crazy busy!
Ok so I know MANY people are thinking I am going to reveal this... .

The coveted Michael Kors Leg Shine stick.... But NOPE... there is something better!

I went to Sephora to buy this and they were sold out, the lady said everyone is asking for it, they can't keep it in stock... but they did have a little travel mini one for $10 so I got that to try it. Maybe it's just me... but I hated it! It was so stinky! Yuck! The smell gave me a headache kinda. And I couldn't really tell that I had even put anything on?? So this was a bust for me. Maybe it's my skin lol but I don't know what all the hype is about!?!?!  So I got another one that my friend Kelly had told me about... Kelly's legs are ALWAYS so shiny and glittery and just glowing!

Drumrollllllllllll.......

Lorac TANtilizer Award Show GLOW!

Ammmazzzziingggg!

I bought mine at Sephora for $32, however, if you don't have a Sephora near you... you can order it HERE from the Lorac website!

Now I will give you a few tips... it is a mousse.... so you kind of have to shake it before you use it, and you have to wash your hands afterwards or they will be very sparkly lol BUT it is all worth the end result!

I know this looks like poo ha but I wanted you to see it so you don't freak out because it looks like kind of gross when you squirt it out, but it rubs right in so don't fret! :)

I tried to take a before and after pic but you really just can't see how great it is... I don't know if I didn't have the right light or what lol but it just didn't do it justice?!!? :(

I know that is hard to see ... and please don't judge by this picture... LOL because in real life you will see the sparkle and shine MAJORLY and I assure you, you will love it!

Just because I am SO EXCITED about this...

I am doing a

Tonight I am going to see Rascal Flatts/Sara Evans/Easton Corbin & Justin Moore :)

SOOO Excited!! Will post pics soon!

BarreAmped

For those of you who know me well, you know that I often wear work out clothes, however the truth of the matter is that very rarely do I actually make it to fulfill the purpose of wearing the work out clothes by going to the gym! HA! Am I the only person who wears them because it is the first step of possibly working out for the day? ;) This time last year, I was going to Pure Barre, loving it, feeling great, not freaked out to wear shorts or tank tops lol... but when Fall hit I got super busy and then came Winter, and it was basically over at that point!

Tonight I decided I am starting back... only this time I am SO happy to say that my friend/most amazing hair stylist in the whole world, Leigh Ann, has opened her own BarreAmped Studio and it is amazing!

Soooo spacious! Even if 20 people were there, you still have room and don't feel cramped! It is so open feeling and just a great location!

Leigh Ann kicked my butt, of course, and what is the most fun thing to do when you know you're going to get your butt kicked? Bring a friend to join in on the pain and suffering!

Emily! Yay! So glad she came, working out is so much better when you have a date!
This pic was post workout so please ignore the skankiness!

I think we got even MORE of a workout because Emily and I were dying laughing the entire time at how hard it was! 30 minutes in Em couldn't feel her legs and was afraid to stand up, 45 minutes in I was 99% sure my appendix was rupturing bahahahaha. It was intense.

Not only are these pics GORGEOUS but if you need a little work out motivation in your life, just take a look at these... Leigh Ann is awesome! I am thinking of printing of putting on my fridge ha!

(This one is the one I need to put on the fridge, in the car, on my phone, basically everywhere lol)

Lexington ladies... if you want more info message me :) I will give you all the info but I do know for new people right now she is doing 1 month unlimited for $100!! You can not beat that! Great Deal!

Thanks Leigh Ann! So proud of you!!! XOXO
Can't wait for you to whip my butt into shape!
