Just Sharing =)

So now that the weather has been getting a lot warmer I've been researching & trying out some new hair tutorials that I found on youtube. Usually when I get tired of my hair & want a change, I start surfing through the web to try & find new ways to fix it, style it, etc. I have a feeling if I didn't do this then I would chop all of it off - Dan would kill me if I did that! The reason for this post is to share with you a video that I came across last month; I've fixed my hair this way a few times now & each time women have asked me how I did it. I just love it when I can share! Here you go:

Classy

For those of you that watched the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday, June 3rd, you probably saw Emma Stone being presented with the Trailblazer award. She's one of my favorite actors & I've loved her in every movie she's been in - even Zombieland & I hate scary movies. After watching her acceptance speech it just made me love her even more. For those of you that missed it, click {here}. I think she's inspiring & such a class act.

You go girl!  

A Mother's Day Surprise

On Mother's Day weekend I decided to drive up to my parents’ house & surprise my Mom. My Dad already knew that I was coming up, but we decided to keep it a secret from my Mom & Ben. It was just Lexi & I this time because Dan had baseball and golf plans. The weather was supposed to be really nice so Dad had mentioned that us girls should go out for lunch & then do some shopping. I thought that sounded like a great idea & you only have to tell me once when shopping's involved!
We ended up going to one of my family’s favorite restaurants in Washington called Old Mexico; Mom & I both got the chicken chimichangas which were fantastic &, of course, too big for us to finish them. We then made our way over to the Tanger Outlets – our first stop was the Coach store because Mom wanted to get a new handbag & I’m always up for looking at new accessories. A few hours later & several stores later, my Mom & I went back into Coach & purchased 2 new handbags:

Can you guess which one is Moms & which one is mine?

We then drove back to Waynesburg with Phoebe's top down & munched on some chocolate/caramel
covered pretzels. =) We had a great time, but wish it could’ve been a family trip.

We love you, Mom, & we hope you enjoyed your day.

P.S. Mine is the peach one on the right.
