Hair Flairs Tie-in Hair Tinsels alternative Hair Color Giveaway

Congratulations, Danielle!! Kylie is on a quest for blue hair. Well, not actually a whole head full of blue hair, but she at least wants blue highlights.  You may remember that not too long ago, we did blue highlights in her hair during a UFC party with the cousins!  It didn't take but a few days for the dye to fade, and when we did the touch up, it took only a few days to fade again. We have found a simple, yet effective and profound alternative to harsh hair chemicals and dyes - Tie-in Glitter Hair Tinsel. Last week,…

Taylor Nursing Scrubs – Great Product and Customer Service

You might be wondering why I would want to review nursing scrubs!  The answer is simple!  As  a labor doula, when I'm working in hospitals with moms in labor, I not only want to be comfortable and fashionable at an affordable price, but I also do not want to mess up my personal wardrobe, in the event things get messy (and they always tend to get messy when you're talking about labor and birth!). Most of the hospitals in the area have their nurses wear matching, standard issue scrub tops and pants, so I have been on the lookout for…

Burn the Floor Houston – Sensational Dancing Performance starring Mark Ballas

Burn the Floor - Invigorating.  Fun. Spastic. Sensual. Amazing. Beautiful. Crazy. Flowing. Talented. Fascinating. Captivating. Tangled. Graceful. Illustrious. These are ALL words that are racing through my head as I search for the perfect one to describe the show we saw last night!  Burn the Floor, at the Hobby Center, was SPECTACULAR!  (I literally keep going back and adding words as I think of them!) Kylie and I had the most amazing time, last night, as we watched some of the most talented artists cascade back and forth across the stage, speaking a language that is so full of life…

Looking at Christmas Lights – Adventure or Flop?

Do you have a favorite place to go see Christmas lights? This weekend, we did ThanksChristmasing with the McCrory Family.  Actually, it was a combination of McCrory, Johnston, Smith, Hamilton, and Hensley.  It was FANTASTIC!  What were were thinking, not having our cameras out once everyone arrived?  We saw family we haven't seen in YEARS!  Literally YEARS! Some we'd never met. My little not so little anymore! I've missed him SO much!  We had a great time. More about that but, on our way home last night, Andy mentioned that KSBJ, the local Christian Radio StationChristmas lights specifically mentioned a…

Stocking Stuffers you probably have not thought about!

I'm stuck on Stockings this year, because every year, I always forget until the last minute, and I usually go out and purchase the same traditional stocking stuffers that I always get for my kiddos! Here's a photo from 1987 or 1988 that I found, not too long ago, of my stocking when I was younger!  I vividly remember this Christmas, because it's the year I got my first REAL bike!  It was a bright red Huffy boy's bike!  I absolutely LOVED it! Things haven't changed much, because I see myself falling into the same trap every year of tons…
