Prompt Challenge - Day 29

Day 29 - 3 Wishes

1)  To go to Walt Disney World.  It is a dream, a wish and a lifelong goal all wrapped into one.

2)  To live a happy life.  I don't need riches and lots of material things (don't get me wrong, I will take them as a bonus) I just want to be happy.

3)  Find every pet a home.  I can't stand pet stores and seeing animals up for adoption literally breaks my heart.  If I only had one wish instead of 3, this is the one I would pick.

Prompt Challenge - Day 28

Day 28 - Something That Stresses You Out

I don't get stressed out very easily.  Whenever I do start to get that "I am about to freak out" feeling, I just step back, take a breather and assess the situation.  I don't get stressed out by big things, like most people do.  Money, jobs, family, etc.  No, I get stressed out from overwhelming Creative Team work.  That is usually the only thing that can stress me out. LOL.  I am pathetic.

Prompt Challenge - Day 27

Day 27 - Pets

I am pretty sure that this is the one thing that pretty much EVERYONE knows about me.  I LOVE my dogs.  I am always taking photos of them and they are constantly featured in my digi-scrap layouts. Instead of posting photos, I will go ahead and post some layouts of them =)

Prompt Challenge - Day 26

Day 26 - Picture Of Your Family

I believe this is the most recent photo I have of my family.  It was taken last year after we had some Claim Jumper for dinner, lol. It is hard to find a picture of my whole family because there are so many of us.  Pretty much my entire family lives within 20 miles of each other but we are only ALL together a couple times a year and it is pretty much impossible to get a group shop of everyone.

But, these are the people I see on a daily basis.  In the photo it is me, my uncle Ronnie, my mom, my granny and my aunt Pam.  Chris should be in there too, but he was taking the photo. =)

Prompt Challenge - Day 24

Day 24 - Something You've Learned

I am pretty sure that this comes from working in customer service for every job I have had since I was 16, but I have learned that it is impossible to please everybody.  Some people just can't be pleased.  There are people that are happy, there are people that can be made happy and then there are people that are just never happy.  No matter how nice you are or how hard you try.  It took me quite a few years to come to this realization and I have grown a pretty thick skin because of it.

Prompt Challenge - Day 23

Day 23 - Favorite Vacation

Our family vacations tend to be a little insane. We almost never go on vacation with less than 20 people and it gets pretty hectic.  One of my favorite would have to be from 2006 when we all went to Hawaii!  It was so much fun.  We were there for 10 days so we got to do a lot and had a really great time.  Here is Chris and I in Hawaii!

Prompt Challenge - Day 22

Day 22-What's In Your Makeup Bag

Haha!  I have like 14 makeup bags!! It comes with the territory of being a hair stylist/makeup artist.  I would take photos of everything it is literally scattered all around my house.  So lets go with just the stuff I use on a daily basis:


I use a buttload of eye shadows and brushes. lol.  Most of the eye shadows are Mac and Stila. I use concealer from Cinema Secrets, foundation from Bare Minerals, Mascara is Buxom Lash from Bare Minerals, eyelash curler is Shu Uemura, a black and a white eye liner from Mac and some loose body shimmer from Roxy (i have had it for YEARS) that i apply over my eyeshadow so it shimmers =)

I also have a airbrush makeup machine that I break out every now and then to use, just for a change from the same old same old.
