Favorite Things - Week 2

A few different bloggers are having favorite things parties on a weekly basis so I thought I would join. This week I have decided to share my most recent favorite, Avon Luminosity. I am not usually an Avon consumer, however, I got a good deal on this so I thought I would give it a try. I LOVE IT! It makes my skin even toned and takes away all blemishes! I hurried and ordered two more just to make sure I would not run out. Give it a try!

My Favorite Things!

Hello!! Today I am linking up to 320 Sycamore's 2010 Favorite Things Party! I have a ton of personal favorites such as my family, friends, babies (dogs), and baby blanket (yes, I still sleep with my blanky). I know these are things that other people can't go out and buy, so for now I am going to post five of my favorite things that are available in stores. = )

Update: The Speckled Dog is also having a FAVORITE THINGS party. I will be linking up there as well!

In no particular order my favorites include:

1. My MacBook Pro - My boyfriend bought this for me for my Birthday last year and I have used it everyday since. I LOVE my MacBook!

2. Converse - My Converse are my "go to" shoe on the weekend. They are so comfy and I love the look. I have been thinking about trying TOM shoes, but I can't seem to step out of my Converse to give them a try.

3. Marc Jacobs perfume - I have both Daisy and Lola, I love them equally!

4. My camera - My Mom and Dad bought me a simple Kodak camera that I could always carry in my purse. I feel like it takes better pictures than my more expensive camera and love that I can take in everywhere so that I never miss a picture perfect moment!

5. My Hobo wallet - I have had this wallet for years now and I am still not sick of it! Wallets are so spendy but this one is worth the money. If I go out, I can use it as a clutch.

Thankful. Blessed.

I am extremely fortunate, I am exactly where I want to be in life. Everyday I feel thankful/blessed and as Thanksgiving gets closer I feel a stronger need to thank those around me.

I have an amazing family that I love so much. My parents have been there for me during my most exciting and happy times but they have also been there to support and encourage me when I have felt lost. My sisters are my best friends, they are both so kind, generous and beautiful.

Carson, my boyfriend, is unreal. I could not have dreamt of a better partner. He really is my best friend and I enjoy every single minute I am with him.

My babies (dogs) are so sweet and loving. They know how to put me in a good mood when life is tough.

I have great friends who I love like family.

Carson's family has been so welcoming. I feel so comfortable when I am around them. I am fortunate to have another wonderful family in my life.

This year, I am beyond thankful for Maci, my niece. Maci was born in June of this year and she is perfect. I knew I would love this little girl when she was born but I did not realize the affects she would really have on me. I find myself looking at the same picture of her over and over again. Re-watching a video I have already seen a dozen times. It never gets old. I look at Maci and I see my sister, my best friend, my sidekick and I see her Dad, my brother in-law, my protecter, my friend. I am excited to watch this little girl grow and I know my love will continue to get stronger.

I am so THANKFUL. I am so BLESSED. THANK YOU!

3 Months

Not to long ago I was blogging about loosing weight. I was doing pretty good but then completely stopped. I have gained back 3 pounds and am not feeling to happy about my appearance. So, not only it is about time for me to get back on the diet but I have also made myself a new goal. I want to loose AT LEAST 20 pounds in the next three months. In February, Carson and I are going to Washington D.C. and New York and I want to feel good!

I know hearing about diets and weight loss (gain) is not the most interesting topic to read about but I am going to continue blogging along the way to keep myself going. The Holidays are always hard but I know I can do it!! Here's to healthy eating!
