I had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday filled with lots of family and laughter. We celebrated with another family of 4 that we consider part of our own. It was so wonderful, and afterwords the 4 of us 'Kids' watched Toy Story and Toy Story 2. It was like de ja' vu because we have not spent time together like that in a long time. We laughed so much and noticed things in the movies that you wouldnt really notice until you were older. It was quite amusing!

Dinner was amazing, I dont eat meat or chicken though so I didnt eat any of the smoked turkey but everything else was definitely so amazing:) mashed potatos, pineapple 'gloop' (pineapples with crushed ritz crackers, honey and some butter hehe it was amazing), green beans, stuffing, creasant roles and much much more :)

I played it simple with what I wore to dinner last night- I wore dark jeans, a charcoal grey v-neck shirt, with a dark purple circle scarf, pretty dangley heart earrings, and my hair curled. I really liked the outfit hehe:)

After everyone left my sister and I went upstairs to my room and played with my different lipstick samples from AVON, and I ended up creating a beautiful winter look that was so simple but so very pretty perfect for the winter months and also what I am wearing tonight when I go iceskating with my friends!! (cant wait for that!), I took pictures which i will put up soon (I need more memory on my computer first before I can download any more pictures: which stinks but hopefully it will be fixed soon). I also took pictures of how I did my hair for Thanksgiving as well, step by step, it didnt turn out as well as i thought it would but it was a different curling iron than the one I normally use (curling wand) and because the curling wand gets hotter faster and you dont have to hold it as long, I go impatient quickly haha.

OH! Also at my last hair cut appointment 2 weeks ago I ended up having my hair stylist cut bangs for me! I reallly like them and everyone else does too, i've been gettting lots of compliments on my hair recently its kinda funnny haha. OHHH!! Bigger news, every year for the Seniors in the year book we do a 'Who's Who' for ex. best hair, best smile, best laugh... things like that. And I'm sure you will love what i ended up getting..... BEST DRESSED!!!!!!!!:) I'm sure you can imagine how excited I was and still definitely Am! :)

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and stay safe driving to and fro :)

I've got some exciting news!

So a few days ago I got my senior pictures done-

and it had a interesting ending...

For the one shot I sat on a vintage trunk in the middle of a back road. the back round(trees fence ect) was absolutely GORGEOUS&real!

So my photographer kept saying how easy I was to photograph and then she took some pictures of me sitting on the trunk and asked me a question...

"Do you want to model?"

you can imagine what went through my brain.

"really?!"

"Yeah! I need a jewelry model for some pictures of jewelry that I am taking and I think you would be perfect!"

And then She also tells me she wants to do photoshoots with models and wants me to do that as well... and That I would be the advertisement for that project!!!!!!

I am so excited! People tell me alot I should model.... and well... Im going to get to!!!

Just thought I should share with you all:)

I'll post pictures when we take them! It wont be till more late fall/winter till we take them- but it's something to definitely look forward too!!

XOXO

OOTD: Goverment Field Trip

Hey! So my Advanced Goverment class went on a field trip today to meet a Congressman and listen to a couple lectures- and my Gov. Teacher told us to dress up! So here I am all dressed up- I sent a picture of this to my Best Friend before school started this morning and shes like "omg! You look like you came off the Gossip Girl Set!!" :) SO here is my Blair From Gossip Girl Inspired look for my Goverment field trip!

(p.s. you cant really see it but there is a white headband with a bow in my hair- you can see it more in pic #3)

(p.p.s my legs look weird- like i am crossing them, though i am not, my left leg is bent in front of my right and when I edited the contrast of the images you cant really see that- so just in case u were wondering why my legs look weird haha:) )

My kitty Sydney

I ABSOLUTELY loveee this picture! I think this is so cute and I love it so muchhh!!

Sydney again. To get the swirly effect as you click the button to take the image turn the camera quickly, dont move its position (or try to not move it as little as possible) but just turn it- i turned it to the right. (Just keep trying and eventually u:ll get a good one!)

Spaghetti. Mmmmmmm. with fresh basil. So delicious.

From dinner a few nights ago- so pretty I had to post a picture.... Thanks Mom!!

XOXO

Recent Obsessions

Sunsets. So simple, so beautiful.

Different every night.

Coco Chanel. Elegance, class, sophistication.

Things that I want to have someday.

Making to do lists. My "compulsive obsession" says my mother. I like to be oganized; even though I am truthfully not THAT organized. Things have their places.

I go through phases. Purple pens, Sharpie pens, Black or blue pens for awhile.... This past couple months? RED PENS. For editing and doodling. They just make writing things so much more intersting.

I believe there are about 20+ in that cup not counting the ones randomly in my room, backpack, and downstairs desk. Yeah, random things that you LOVE.

Vouge. This thick beast is my copy of the Special Edition September Issue of Vouge. Those tabs sticking out are pages I have marked to draw inspiration from. Sad part? I havent even gotten through the whole thing yet I have been so busy. eck.

My kitty cat, whom you all probably know, Sydney. He helps me out by letting me play with his feather toy and teasing him with it to relieve stress and take a moment for just pure enjoyment. I love this cat. <3

What are your recent obsessions?

XOXO

Waves & IPFTD

Ever since I started working my frequent posts have gone ka-put, and now that school has started?? Yeah, not so good. But work closes the 16th so after that I believe that I might be able to get back on my regular posting schedule.

So theres that quick note and here is a Inspirational Picture For The Day:
