Birch Box May

Gossip Girl Birch Box. I do not watch Gossip Girl anymore, but I was interested in what products Birch Box would send



I love love this product. And they sent a full size.

I love trying new lotions, but this one smells a little funny.

I do not have a need for this product, but I am saving it for someone that may want it.

Smells nice. 

They gave out a note card to give to someone.

I was not really impressed with this box, but it is always fun seeing what you get.

Target Beauty Bag

Target about a month and half ago, had a promotion for free beauty bags. In each bag were five samples and coupons for those products. Mine came in the mail a few weeks ago and here is a little sneak peek...


I love this little bag, I use it in my purse, to keep all my little things in one place.


I loved the Simple Make-up wipes and actually used the coupon to get more. I put the Nivea Lotion in my purse. It was a great bag full of fun little samples. Thank you Target!

Cowboy Cupcakes

It was M's best friend's birthday last Tuesday, so M and I decided to make cupcakes for him and bring them to work for him (M and him work together).



He loves football.


He actually loves the Cowboys.

So, we made Cowboy Cupcakes for him.

And added a few sprinkles.

First Wedding Anniversary

I cannot believe it has already been a year since M and I said, "I do." Yesterday we had a really fun day! We went to lunch and then headed to the Japanese Gardens ( I have been wanted to go for awhile). After the gardens M took me shopping! We went into a few store until I found the perfect green dress and necklace ( I also got two sparkly hair bands!). Then went to Ring Side Restaurant and had the most perfect steaks ever! They were amazing, each bite just melted into your mouth. I cannot wait for our left overs tonight! After dinner we decided to go to a movie and we The Avengers, it was actually quite good. I do enjoy action movies, I cannot wait for Batman. Our day was really fun and it was fun talk about the last year and how much out lives will be changing in the next few months.

                                                 








York Steak and Garlic Mash Potatoes 
                                     
                                       
                                                       Look at that piece. So good.


Movie Time!

Succulents

I follow the blog Young House Love and this was one of their posts a few weeks ago: http://www.younghouselove.com/2012/04/what-up-succa/

I liked the idea so when I saw some succulents at a grocery store I decided to pick up two.  I am hoping that these last longer then the plants I planted outside. Hopefully these will make it down to CA!





I really like that you can see the dirt, I feel like it goes with the colors in our home. 


If they survive by the time we get down to CA, I may get a few more.

All About Target

I always enjoy going into Target and seeing what they have since they change there products so often. I love their clothes clearance section because I usually get the clothes I likes for half off or more. One thing I have learned is that at target.com they have coupons on the top right corner of their web page. They usually have $3.00 off clothes coupons and much more! And the greatest thing is that you can use coupons on clearance items! 

Target Facebook:


They give great style tips and have give aways too!:


They give GREAT tips with coupons and how to save even more at target! I have gotten some great deals through this page:






I saw these and cannot wait to they go on sale!

I got about 8 rings for $7.99. Right now on Target has a coupon for buy one Jewelry item get another for half off. 

Here are three of the colors. I love them! I was looking for gold colored rings, since all I had was silver.
