Happy Thanksgiving!

I know this post is a little later than it would usually be, but I just wanted to tell you all how thankful I am for you. My blog has grown by leaps and bounds recently, and all of the credit goes to you all! I am so thankful for the opportunity to write and create, and share it with you.

 I am also very thankful for the friends and family I was blessed enough to have spent time with when we celebrated yesterday. We had some of the most people for dinner we'd had in years, and our house was overflowing with love, food, and thankfulness to be there together. 

I am thankful for my friends who I did not spend Thanksgiving with, as well friends who have been gone to college and returned safely for the Holiday.

I am incredibly thankful for the amazing boyfriend I have had for two years now. He has been such a blessing in my life, and I hope I have the chance to spend many more years with him!

More than anything I am thankful for God, my salvation, and all that he has blessed me with. This has not been an easy few months for my family, and we could not have made it without his help. I thank him for allowing my grandfather to survive the massive heart attack he had. I thank him for keeping my grandmother and dad safe during their time in the hospital. I thank him for helping me adjust to Community College and giving me a better attitude about it. Most of all I thank him for working within those around me who need him more than anything.

Finally, I would like to wish you all a happy and blessed Thanksgiving! I pray you have ample amounts of food and love in each of your houses on this day, and remember how blessed you are to be here in this world God created for us!

Also, if you are crazy enough to venture out Black Friday shopping tonight as I am, I wish you all the best of luck, and here are a few coupons to help you find those amazing deals! Be safe!

Homemade Beauty: Ice Facial

It may not sound very pleasant, but running an ice cube over your face has a ton of benefits for your skin! They will help to smooth your complexion by combating fat cells, easing wrinkles, fighting acne, and promoting blood circulation that will help heal past blemishes!  Be sure to  wrap the cubes  in a paper towel, or a baggie  because applying them directly to your skin can cause delicate blood vessels to break For an added  benefits to this  treatment, try freezing your cubes with watermelon, lemon, or rose!

What's in my... Makeup Bag

I would just like to let you all know that I am packing for a 12 day trip, so for some of you this might not be enough, for some it may be to much. I don't wear all of this every single day, but I do like options. I would also like you to know that we are going to be driving everywhere on this vacation, so to an extent I don't have to worry about how much I pack or the sizes of my products.

Ipsy: March Throwback

First of all, this is one of the cuuuutest bag I've gotten in a while! This bag was probably about 50/50 on how I liked the actual products I received, but keep reading for a cool surprise in the end! This is the NYX Liquid Suede lipstick and I really enjoyed it! I was wary of this color when I first pulled it out, but after putting it on I found out that it was really pretty!!  It dries very matte, and lasts quite a while.  This is a really pretty eyeshadow, it is the brand Manna Kadar in the color Fantasy.  It is a pretty basic color and the packaging is kind of cheap, but it is a nice full size, so I'm not mad at it! I never wear my hair straight three days in a row... This is a nice product from Marc Anthony again, and it smells good, it just isn't something I will use often. This is the Pixie blush and highlighter duo in rose gold, and it was sooooo pretty!  And then it fell off my sink and instantly broke on the edge.  And then it ...
