There are just a few things that I must share with you today.  Let me start by saying everytime I walk in a store for something I come out with something else.  Happen to you?  Thought so.  So my list here are things not on my list of needs, but rather wants once in the said store.  Glad I took a chance.  The first being this ridiculously perfect Divine Oil body spray by Claudalie.

Have you smelled this?  Pure heaven.  Reminds me a little of the Kai body oil.  Just love this stuff and not that much considering how much you get!  The scent stays around all day too.  A win win!

Next up, Eye Definer by Sonia Kashuk at Target.

Totally obsessed with this stuff.  Cheap and very easy to apply.  The pencil is not hard and goes on very smoothly.  Easy to smudge too if thats the look you are after.  Thank you Elizabeth for introducing me to this stuff! My favorite shade so far is "Blue Denim" but definitely want to try out a few other shades.

On to the face.  Not sure what the deal is, but my face has been looking horrible lately!  I am 34 years old and still getting bumps all over my face!!!!  WHY!!!!!!  Ugh!  Well, anyway, just discovered this face wash and am loving it so far. Has a wonderful grapefruit smell too and really feels like you are getting your skin clean!

This next one is  a DIY that my neighbor informed me of after our late night rendezvous in the cult-de sac.  Wondering why I said  "CULT de sac"-well it's a little nickname we gave ourselves after my husband's brother moved in two houses down from us.  So we have one neighbor in between (our age) which equals some late nights of wine drinking after the kiddos go to bed.  So back to my point, after one of these said nights, I spilled red wine all over this dress.

Arg!!!  Only worn it twice and I thought it was ruined!!!  

Here is the picture of a small area of red wine spilled before.

Well on to the awesome combo of ingredients and......

 during the process....

Voila!!!!!  

Y'all this combo really works!!!!  I didn't even deal with the situation that night either.  This is the next morning I decided to give it a try.  Can't believe it but I am so happy!!!!!

My Faves

Let's be random, shall we?  Here are some things I can't live without.

Rio Star Grapefruit

Are you kidding, so refreshing when ice cold.  No need for sugar, it's sweet as candy!

Um, this soap is my new favorite!  Have you smelled this stuff?  Keep sniffing my hands, ha ha!

Caldrea Palmarosa Wild Mint

A junk store find a few weeks back.  I just love.

Had  a date night last night with the hubs to our fave place, Red Drum!

Natalie, I thought of you while ordering these delish lime mojitos!!!  Put me SO in the mood for summer!!!

Of course my sweet boys!  Little R turns 5 tomorrow!!!  How do I have a 5 year old????  Today is picture day and someone was not happy about it!  The boy hates a collared shirt (probably because I do and he wants the opposite of any and everything I suggest)

And this guy has no idea what I dress him in which is so great because I still can get him in the girly boy clothes:)

And for those interested, a few shots of the progress of our house.  Scroll no further if not interested.  I have a hard time choosing pics so I end up putting WAY too many!

Front door looking in.  

BTW those are temporary doors out to the back porch for inspection purposes.

Kind of love the diagonal direction of the wood in here but unfortunately just sub flooring.

Leaving the ceiling exposed in here and our new windows out the front of the playroom
