Sad Day...

Today was a sad day. I have wanted to be a teacher ever since I can remember. Some of my favorite toys were a chalkboard and grade book growing up. With all the preparation I was given I was never prepared for what I had to do today. I buried my first student. Nic died in a tragic accident on Sunday evening. I can't not even imagine the pain his family and friends are experiencing right now. Please keep them and Bixby high school in your prayers. He was one of my favorites. Nic was such a sweetheart! He was one of the most adorable students at BHS and a total charmer to boot. I will greatly miss his sweet smile and cheerful personality! I am so proud of the young man that Nic was. He will be greatly missed!!!

I saw this quote today on a blog and it was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you Lord for always placing things in our paths!

This is Nic... I know he is just the most precious kiddo!

Nic I truly believe that today was not a goodbye but a see you later!!!

XOXOXO,

New Product!

Ok, Ladies!!! I wanted to share some lovely products I have found lately (through Pinterest and my FAB beautician)!!! First, Pinterest...

This is Aquage uplifting foam. I just bought this tonight (had a hard time finding a place in Tulsa that carries it), so I have NO idea how it will actually work. I'll let you know tomorrow!

The Second being Dust It! OK, my AMAZING hair lady, Miss Dawn G, she showed me this at my appt last week! I can not express to you how AWESOME this stuff is. It gives me body and a poof with no teasing! It's a little pricey but TOTALLY worth it!

I'm pretty darn giddy about these additions to my hair product arsenal!

XOXOXO,

Jaime

Birch Box

So, obviously I have totally slacked on the 30 day challenge. I do have a VERY valid excuse though. With the weather being in between seasons it's hard to couple the seasons in 1 challenge. So, this week I am going to start over and do a Fall 30 days. This will not start until Wednesday because I am a little under the weather with a two day 100 degree fever thus that will be the next day I actually get up and dress. Due to the said fever and absence from school I have been in the lounging position all day. I did find a few nuggets! My fave I found on the cute little blog www.thesmallthingsblog.com... It's called a Birch Box, you can check it out here (www.birchbox.com). It is a box that arrives mid month full of beauty samples for only $10 a month! If you know me you know I LOVE to play with new products, and this feeds my addiction and doesn't break my wallet! I'll post pics when the first box arrives!!! I am SSSOOO excited!!!

Day 2

Day 2... Again sorry for the mirror shot and please excuse the frazzled mess that is me, this was taken after a full day of school!

Day 1

So, today is the first post in my 30 day summer clothing challenge. I was running SUPER late this morning (I know weird and totally out of character right?). Anywhoo... I am telling you this because I had to take the picture of myself. I know it's very Freshman girl and I should probably being sticking my tongue out or maybe holding up a peace sign but I digress...

DAY 1

30 day challenge

So, I was reading a blog recently where she gave herself a 30 day challenge. The challenge is to wear 30 different outfits in 30 days! So, I have decided to do this! I'm actually pretty excited!!! I plan on doing one each season! Summer 1st since Oklahoma is hot until October! I think this will help me change up my wardrobe and use ALL my clothes! I SO easily get in to a clothes rut... feeling like I look like an EEEKKK...Teacher! No, I don't wear seasonal sweaters or denim jumpers but I just feel frumpy! Also, she does a post every Friday which she calls grateful for Friday (BEST NAME EVER... I mean who isn't grateful for Friday!) Where she goes through the week and tells one thing for each day that she is grateful for! LOVE IT!!! Outfit number 1 is up tomorrow... GET EXCITED!!!
