Half Scary Half Glamour

Just realized I never posted this!! (It was definitely not Halloween last weekend. haha!!)

My little sister had her Halloween dance this past weekend and asked me to do her make up! It was seriously so fun. I did a little research on Pinterest and copied a couple different looks. I didn't have a whole lot of time either, so it prolly could have looked better. And in the same breath, maybe if I had keep going I would have made it worse. I'm going with the former and stickin' to it. :D

Anyway, here's the face of my GORGEOUS baby sister and her cute date!!

Because it was a high school dance they weren't allowed to do a full face paint. When she got to her group dinner she found out that most of the people either didn't know or didn't care. (prolly the latter cuz this is high school, let be real folks.)

So instead we did half creepy skeleton face and half red lip glamour. This is one time when I prolly could have done a better job with better make up supplies but all I had to work with was a super old pallet with 100 colors that no one ever used.

In hind sight, the half face was WAY cooler. Don't you think??

From the infamous instagram of my gorgeous sister! She's amazing. That's one of her friends in the background. Super creepy and not nearly as cool as my amazing sister. Sorry Taylie!

Katie, You're the most incredible woman I know! I love you!

Next Step

I've been avoiding this post for a while now. In fact, a long time... I've been thinking about it since I wrote the post about our little grey circles that didn't make it. I like writing but the last few weeks have been kinda blah. I also think I've been a little hesitant because I've always wanted these posts to be super happy and chipper but that's not exactly how I feel. After the last post I did get a lot of really nice feedback, one in particular that made me feel extra good. My aunt is an incredible person and I love talking to her. She said to me that no matter how long those grey circles were my babies, they still were and I was allowed to grieve as much as I wanted. I think that kind of gave me permission to really cry and it made me feel a lot better. Thanks Kim. :) But now we're on to bigger and better things. I can't lie and say that I'm super excited about this transfer. I think I got WAY too excited for the last one/first one and it

Halloween Murder Mystery Night

Confession... I think it's probably annoying for some of you to read these posts about Mutual activities we do. The reason I post about them is because most if not all of my ideas come from other posts that I've searched for. So while the things we do aren't that great, I still want to offer whatever inspiration I can for those to follow. So... We did another really great activity for the Young Women a couple weeks ago! haha. This one was a Halloween Murder Mystery Dinner and it turned out awesome!!! It was the brain child of one of my fabulous Laurels who participated in the same activity a couple years ago. Fortunately, she was the only one! So it was a perfect activity for the rest. And to top it all off, it was an LDS theme, so it was all perfectly appropriate. Yay! Here's a few pics. :) This was the center of the table. Doesn't it look cool?! I should have take a closer pic of the candles. Those are actually rootbeer bottles that I spray painted. Th

Our little grey circles!

The transfer happened this past weekend!! Yay!! I'm sure some of you are thinking "Yay! What the heck is she talking about?!" Haha. As a reminder... The short story of IVF goes like this. Step 1- Take a bunch of drugs to make my ovaries over produce. Step 2- Collect the eggs via surgery. Step 3- Fancy (and expensive!) doctors take Justin's sperm and inject it into the eggs in a little petri dish. Step 4- We wait patiently while they grow. The next step happened this weekend! They take the now fertilized eggs and put them back into my womb to hopefully implant and grow!! This is also the "moment of conception" for us. A woman will likely have lots of eggs fertilize in her lifetime but she doesn't get pregnant if they don't implant. So this is it! The funny thing about it is that Justin wasn't there. :( He had an appointment at work that couldn't be changed so for the rest of our lives we will be able to joke that Justin wasn't
