Last week

Sunday is my winding down day. Dustin works Saturdays now as well so I only have Sundays to spend the entire day with him. Yesterday I spent relaxing like I said I was going to do, and making some new little plush magnets in the meantime.  I also managed to set up the Christmas tree by myself and surprised D with it when he came home.  I'm pretty sure he was just relieved that I didn't have to force him into helping me decorate it this year haha.

Things I love waking up to:

Cute emails in my inbox... and this little guy fast asleep in his daddy's spot... complete with pillow and everything. My two favourite boys <3


There is a peek at my new vehicle!  I am in love with it. It's perfect and probably the warmest thing in the world!  Hello, it has butt warmers. I'm pretty stoked about this because after driving a car from 1995 for six years, features like this blow me away.

Our recent guilty pleasure has been this delicious pull-apart rosemary bread and this spinach/cheesey dip from M&M Meat Shops.  I am in heaven whenever we eat it.

Here is a shot of the Christmas tree all up and decorated!  I'll take proper photos later, but for now this will do. That room is going to be so festive!

Lastly, the most unattractive photo of my eye ever in existence.  My eyelids were completely swollen Fri-Sat because I am an idiot.  I've had this happen a few times and always thought it was certain makeup I was using... so eliminated those eyeshadows from my collection. After it happened yet again on Friday, I thought it was a certain brush I was using... but after some research I found out that the brush I thought it was, was synthetic (My normal brushes are goat/pony hair... that sounds so weird, but they're MAC anyways.  This brush I only use occasionally turned out to be synthetic (Urban Decay).)  Apparently, synthetic brushes are hypoallergenic so that ruled that out. In fact, I should have been more allergic to the animal hair types than anything, which I use every day without issues.

Then I did some more detective work and realized that before I was using my eyeshadow, I wiped my brushes on a piece of toilet paper. After my eyes were bugging me throughout the day, I used toilet paper and makeup remover to get it off. It got worse.  Then I realized that this seemed to happen every time toilet paper was involved.  Don't ask why I use toilet paper... I do my makeup in the bathroom and it's the closest thing haha. So anyways, not to self: Never use toliet paper to remove makeup again. I'm back to normal now, but now that I know what's causing it I'll knock on wood that it never happens again.

What did you get up to this weekend? Did you spend all your money during Black Friday, or did you choose not to partake?

Randomness Recaps

Happy Friday friends! Today you're allowed to be lazy, so I'm leaving you with a bunch of random cell phone pics, and a recap of my busy busy week!  Don't forget, my $7 print sale ends tonight! So go grab a print at a discount!!!

Nugget decided to rip apart the underside of our mattress. Normally, I would be pissed... However, how can you be mad at this cuteness? His back feet are sticking out a second hole! I died!
Been meaning to sell off those drums up there. I had them custom made a couple years ago and they just haven't had any use (Like, at all. They are mint.)  I used to play drums a bit but never got around to setting these ones up.

Second pic is the progress of one of my digital prints!
On Halloween, I always dress Bear up in his pumpkin costume! He loves it!  My good friend Becky came over one weekend and we carved a bunch of pumpkins. That was my masterpiece haha. She wrote a book recently and got it published and everything! I helped her out with the cover too!  It will be in major book stores soon and right now you can pick it up at Barnes & Noble online. It's a fiction story about archangels, so if you're into all that Supernatural and Twilight stuff, check it out!
Apple chips have been my most favourite thing ever since I was a kid.  I remember going to the apple orchard and always grabbing a bag. I may have finished these off in about 5 minutes *hides*. 

Also, it snowed today :( 
Winter is right around the corner and I still haven't got all of my outdoor Christmas decorations yet!  Hoping to find a way to put lights on the house this year. Last year Dustin and I were too chicken to attempt it because I swear the height of my house is insane.

In case you missed anything here this week, this is what happened:
