I know it’s only the 5th day of December, but I am on a role with Blogmas this year. I’m kind of proud of myself. 🙂 Today’s post is about my Birthday/Christmas wishlist. I don’t have much that I want and most of it is related to photography/cameras. The reason why I have combined the lists is because my birthday is December 13th, so only 12 days before Christmas. I also will usually get my birthday gifts on Christmas, so it’s just easier this way. 😉
I’m back again with some photos from my mom’s surprise party last month. The party was a lot of fun and my mom was completely surprised. We had it at my grandmother’s house and we got a lot of my mom’s friends from church to make the long drive down. My mom’s cake was so beautiful. It was half chocolate and half vanilla with a butter cream (I think) frosting.
It’s Day 3 of Blogmas and I am back with a recipe for the Snickerdoodle cupcakes that I made for my mom’s surprise party last month. I used the recipe from Deliciously Sprinkled, but I did change one ingredient. Instead of shortening, we used unsalted butter.
Wow! Day 2 of Blogmas! I’m on a roll. Haha. I just noticed that I was nominated for a Liebster Award from Miss Emily from Em + the City. I met Emily at the Texas Women Blogger’s Farm-to-Table Dinner event only a few short weeks ago. She was so sweet. I loved getting to talk to her.
Hello people of the interwebs! I have been horribly absent from blogging and I apologize. College has been extremely hectic/stressful. But I am doing BLOGMAS this year. If you don’t know what Blogmas is, it’s where you post something every single day up until Christmas. I’m going to attempt to do this. Not sure how well it will go, but I want to at least be able to say I tried.
I had the opportunity to attend the Texas Women Bloggers Network’s first event on November 15th. It was called the Farm-to-Table dinner and it was a chance for all of us bloggers in Texas to meet up and talk/network with each other. I had a lot of fun and am so glad I went. I was definitely nervous, but turns out it wasn’t so bad. Since I’m new to the network, I haven’t formed the friendships that the other ladies had already formed, but everyone was really welcoming and nice to me.
Happy Halloween everyone! Today, I am showing you what I am wearing and how I did my makeup for Halloween. It’s a really simple outfit. I am actually not doing anything this year, but I thought it would be fun to dress up. 🙂
In just a few weeks, I will be heading up to Dallas for my first blogging event. The TXWB Network is hosting a Farm-to-Table dinner with some fabulous sponsors on November 15th at 6:30pm. I’m so stoked to meet some fellow Texas bloggers and have a fun-filled girls’ night. In preparation for this event, the ladies attending the event are all doing a little self-interview to help everyone get to know each other.
Hey everyone! Yesterday, I decided (spur of the moment) to go get my haircut. I got a long bob, although I’m not too sure how I feel about it. Every time I try to grow my hair out, I go and get it cut shorter. My hair just seems to look a lot healthier when it’s short. I am also starting to part my hair in the middle, which is really weird for me as I’ve had a side part for about 8 years now.
Is it already the middle of October? Where has the time gone? I’ve been pretty MIA from blogging, which I am sorry about. School has been extremely hectic and it’s only going to get worse from here with the end of the semester coming up in December. So because it’s finally Fall, I decided to do a quick little post about some Halloween decorations that I got from the Dollar Store the other day. Everything I got was a dollar, which is amazing!
