Fishtail Braids!

I love braids. I learned to braid when I was 10 years old. I then learned to french braid at about 13, and took a summer to learn how to french braid my own hair at the age of 15. I love doing the fishtail braid! Check out these great ideas on how you can incorporate the fishtail braid into your everyday style!

A few inspirations

  Fall is one of the most busiest times of the year. I often find myself getting used to being so busy that I forget to enjoy life. I got my restricted license this past summer and I have found myself driving without even caring about the world around me. This fall I've really tried to turn the radio down and just thank God for his creation and his beauty that he has created. No matter if its been a bad day and I'm blasting the Taylor Swift, I try to take a moment to be thankful for what is around me. God is SO good, and I tend to overlook his blessings too much. My hardships are blessings from him because I know HE will never fail me and he will always be right by my side.  

   If you've got a busy schedule this week...try to take some time to breathe in this season's blessings. Here are a few inspirational quotes that I have recently found. I hope they inspire you as much as they have inspired me.

Back to blogging!

Hey everyone! I've missed blogging so much! School has kept me busy the past month, so I had to put blogging on the back burner. But have no fear! I'm back and ready to start blogging again! I've got some awesome stuff planned for Thanksgiving and Christmastime! I was shopping the other day and found that stores are already playing Christmas music! :) I've missed you all so much, and I can't wait for you to rejoin me on this journey of blogging.

Thoughts...

Here's a few thoughts that I thought you all might like to read! :) My favorite one would have to be the second one. We are all sinful in the eyes of God. It doesn't matter what we've done. It's all equal in his eyes. But he LOVES us! He created us knowing that we WOULD sin! But he didn't just leave us here alone! He sent his son to be blameless and pure. He died on a cross for you. And when you accept him into your life, you can live in freedom because you are forgiven of your sins! :) This quote by C.S. Lewis always reminds me that I am forgiven, therefore I should forgive others! Do you have a quote that's particularly important to you?

At Home Spa Treatments

These are a few great combinations for at home spa treatments. It's hard on your budget, buying all those expensive spa treatments (masks, bath fizzes, moisturizers...etc). But these treatments are oh so kind to your budget, using things that you probably have in your kitchen! Give some of these a try!
