Valentine's Day Makeup

Valentine's Day is just a few days away.  I have entered a contest (which I posted on my blog the other day) and I'm excited to say that I have two more looks that I will be posting tutorials for to enter this contest as I get to enter 2 looks for each theme (2 for sinner & 2 for saint).  I am going to share them with you now and will be posting more pictures and the video tutorials once I have had the chance to edit them. :)

Here is a Saint look - 

Here is the Sinner look -

I used a mixture of products for each look and will list them in the blog posts once I am done editing the video.  Hope you all like it and wishing you all a Happy Valentine's Day.  May it be filled with lots of hugs and kisses and sweet cuddle time with your loved one. :)

Finishing up my 30 day blog challenge, in one day....

Things are so crazy lately with the holiday season in full swing...  I tend to be more busy with my photography & shooting portraits because it's the time for Holiday & Christmas cards.  So, since things are so heckteck, I am going to finish my 30 day blog challenge tonight so I will have time to do other posts for all of you. ;)

• Day 23 - What are your favorite beauty products and why  {I have always loved MAC from the first time I tried it.  I am a huge drugstore makeup lover as well, because there are many affordable and great products sold at drugstores.  I love Cetaphil cleanser - it is one of my favs. Curel lotion and moisturizer is also one of my favorites as well.  There are so many products out there that I am totally loving at this moment. ;)}
• Day 24 - What is your favorite movie?  {I have 3 favorite movies of all time,  50 First Dates, A Walk to Remember and The Notebook.  I am a huge movie junkie and love my chic flicks.  These are probably my all time favs... but trust me, the list is VERY LONG.}
• Day 25 - 10 things you could not live without  {My husband & My 3 sons.  I don't have 10 things I could not live without... it's those 4 things I listed that keeps my life going and what I live for ;)}
• Day 26 - What is your favorite food, why? Do you have a favorite recipe for it?  {This is a hard one, because I have so many favorite foods... especially when my husband cooks it.   I LOVE Italian food and it is by far my favorite.  I don't have a recipe for it on hand, but I think I really enjoy eating Lobster & Crab raviolli's with a butter truffle oil sauce.  Yummy - and I can find it at Sansei Bar & Grill on Maui.}
• Day 27 - A Song that best describes you "today"  {Hmm...  really missing my husband today - he has been working almost 3 weeks straight without a day off.  I think I will choose our song as my song that describes me today - "All my Life" - K-Ci &  Jojo}
• Day 28 - Post a picture of you in Highschool, what memories do you have from those days? {Here's my Senior Portrait from High School.  It's not the greatest quality because I took this photo from my year book and snapped a photo of it on my cellphone.  But, this is me, in all my skinny girl glory ;)}  

• Day 29 - What are your goals for the rest of the year and resolutions for 2011 {My husband and I have had a very busy & interesting 2010 - I hope and pray that things can settle down a bit so that we are not running around like chickens without heads... and hopefully we can move out of the place we are staying in now and move into our own house and some privacy. ;)}
• Day 30 - Post a photograph of yourself today and write about 3 good things that have happened in the last 30 days.

Here's a picture of myself today. ;)  Lots has happened over the last 30 days, good & bad... and I can't really get into detail about it except to say that I am looking forward to 2011 and all the great and wonderful things that will be coming our way. ;)

Blog Challenge - Days 19-21

I promise, I didn't forget.  I have been so busy with the twins the last few days as they haven't been feeling well at all.  ;)

Day 19 - If you know that you were to die tomorrow, what would you say or do and why?

This subject really hits home for me... because I have had so many people leave me to heaven... and I never had the opportunity to say things that I wanted to before they left - including, "I love you!"  If I really were to die tomorrow, I would be sure to make peace with those that I may not be talking to right now... and let them know how much I love them and how much I care.  I would also take the time to write each one of my children and my husband letters from my heart - expressing how much I love them all and how much I will still be watching over them over heaven.  Then, I would make the last few moments of my life count and spend all my time with my husband and children.  They are my life... and I want them to know how much they mean to me.


Day 20 - Post another photo of yourself (taken today) and blog about what happened today.

Not much happened today.  I have been home all day - nursing my sick babies back to health.  It has been a crazy last couple of days because when the kids are sick, they are beyond cranky... and we are unable to go anywhere.  So basically, I did nothing today.  Here's a quick pic. ;-)
