New Favorite Thing...

Change.  This year is all about change for me.  And since I've done pretty much the same thing for the past 15 years.  Everything is going to be my new favorite thing!!   This "change" is in regards to my make-up.  I have worn pretty much two colors of eye shadows, one for my browns and one for my pinks--same colors for as long as I've been wearing make-up I think.  Well, I decided to branch out and I'm so glad I did!  I love this new Revlon ColorStay eye shadow stick that just came out.  I have never used anything but powder eye shadow, but this is so easy and looks great on!!  Now this is a stick so you don't have to use the little applicator that comes in eye shadow packs, but I have also changed over to using brushes.  Another huge difference.  It's like I'm learning to do make-up all over again.  

I'm still staying in my general colors---taking baby steps..  LOL!!  But, change is good.....

Chicken Pot Pie---CROCKPOT!!!

I have stated this numerous times in the past, but I'm in love with my crockpot.  If it was up to me, that would be the only cooking appliance in my kitchen!  I found this recipe from Crock Pot Girl via Pinterest and I also follow her Crock Pot Girl blog.  It looks so simple and if it involves chicken, I know Mac will eat it.  

I'll let you know how it turns out!!

Crockpot Chicken Pot Pie

It is going to blow you away at how simple this is!!

• Fill the bottom of the crockpot with boneless chicken
• Pour a can of cream of chicken, cream of celery and cream of broccoli soup over chicken.
• Cover and cook on low for 6 hours
• Add a can of corn, carrots (I think I would use fresh carrots), green beans and peas
• Cover and cook for an additional 45 minutes
• Make biscuits in the oven and scoop pot pie onto biscuits.

EASY BREEZY!!!

Thanks Crock Pot Girl!!!

It's time----VACATION!!!!

Yes, friends...  I'm on vacation!!!

Happy Sunday....

Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday.....

Best Experience...

As most of my friends know, I recently took my house off the market---since it's a crappy market and went with  refinancing  it instead.  Mac and I are going to live in it until he graduates high school.   So three more years in Helena.  Yea!!!
I just wanted to give a huge thanks to my Realtor Fran Robertson for all her hard work over the past six months.  She helped keep a constant flow of traffic coming into my home.  She is also such a sweet dear friend who truly has your best interest at heart.
In doing my refinance, I used Cathy Gapen with Hometown Mortgage.  This was another wonderful experience.  I live by emails and text, and over 90% of all our interactions were done this way.  It really progressed this process as we were never playing phone tag!!  My entire refinance process took less than or right at two weeks.  I signed all the paperwork yesterday.  And I do mean alot...

If you are in need of either of their services, I recommend them whole heartily.  Contact me if you have any questions or just click on the links I have provided to go their respective sites.  I'm also going to give you a picture of Cathy's contact information.  We all know rates are at an all time low, so what will it hurt to give her a call and see what she can do for you..

Best of luck friends and have a wonderful weekend!!!

 

Another Case and Favorite Thing....

First, let me say it's not my fault.  Kerra, one of my friends from work introduced me to this iPhone case and I haven't been able to get it off my mind since!!  And we all know when I get the "bug" for something, it normally doesn't take long before I gotta get it...  If it is within reason, of course.
This is the Lifeproof Case for the iphone 4 and 4s..  It is so pretty in person!  I ordered it from Amazon for $58.00!!  Weird, but the price has changed since then.  But none the less, it's cheaper on Amazon than on the LifeProof web site which has them for $80.00.

I'm still not convinced that I'm going to take my phone into the pool or ocean.  But hopefully if it does get wet--this case will protect it.  I just really like the "thinner" look of this case verses the Otter Box defender case.  I'll give you a full review of how I like it when I get back from my vacation at the beach.  The only other con is that I wish it was in a lime green color.  Black, purple, white or pink are your only choices.  I figured I could find it in my purse the best with pink.  And was afraid white could get dirty...
Can't wait!!!  But this is the last iPhone case I am buying !!!
