Texas Skies

I'm in Texas, with my parents & dog child, visiting my sister and her family for the holidays. I lived in Texas for four years and forgot how beautiful the skies can be here. Good to be reminded. God is so talented. Here are some sky shots I took the past few days:

Pink Christmas Tree-2013

Living with your parents as an adult means living out of your small childhood bedroom. Which does not leave much room for your very own real Christmas tree. So instead of no tree this year, I found a cute mini PINK Christmas tree that sits perfectly on top of my printer. It makes me so happy. Pink just makes everything better, doesn't it? It is definitely beginning to look a lot like Christmas. :)

New Find-Hurraw Lip Balm

One thing I absolutely love about the blogging world is the opportunity to learn about awesome new products via other bloggers, that I otherwise may have never found out about. Some of my favorite things that I have purchased I discovered via other bloggers. And I am not just talking about product reviews & advertisements-but bloggers sharing their favorite things & all the products that work for them. I bought an awesome shirt, Scentsy burner, drawer organizer, a monthly planner, books, and makeup products all because of bloggers sharing their awesome finds. I vow to continue this awesome opportunity that blogging brings by sharing my favorite things & awesome new finds {when the budget permits} with all of you who may be reading or who happen to stumble upon this little blog of mine. My most recent find I want to share with the world: is Hurraw Lip Balm. { you can learn more about it HERE} My lips are forever chapped & the past lip balm I was using had no SPF in it. {Which I have learned is no bueno for your lips because they need just as much sun protection as your face does.} So this past weekend, I ventured out to my favorite natural grocery store in town and came out with this gem of a lip balm. No SPF like I was looking for but was told randomly and sincerely by three employees that this lip balm was great. I hesitated to get it at first because it had no SPF in it but when I felt how chapped my lips were I bought it anyway. And let me tell ya, those employees were not just saying good stuff to try to sell me stuff, this lip balm is as great as they said! It was well worth the $4.00. So much so that I went to their website and ordered three more, two with SPF even, which made me oh so happy, happy, happy {as good ole' Phil Robertson would say.} If you are in search for a new lip balm that actually works and doesn't just mask the problem-I so recommend trying this one. It may just be the best lip balm out there.
