A Special Gift (I Hope)

So for Valentine's day this year I decided to do something different for Chris. He is always saying how Valentine's day is more of a holiday for girls. I won't argue.

I started doing what I do best, creeping Pinterest, and found an amazingly cute idea..the idea is inspired from the "52 Things I Love About You", but I decided to do "I Love You Because..."

1. I typed up 52 labels of things I love about Chris
    Ex: You never forget important days


2. I then went out and bought a deck of 52 "playing cards". I tried to stay away from the ones with blue in them.


3. I put the labels in the center of the cards like the picture below


4. I found something to bind it with. I just found this at the house and decided it would work until I found some cute ribbon.


5. And last but not least, I went on to PICNIK and edited a little cover to use and voila.


Good thing he isn't much of a blog reader : )

High Five For Friday

It's Friday so you know what that means!
Here are my top things from this past week.
Oh this day couldn't come fast enough even though this week has been pretty low key.

1. I am starting to make an adorable coupon book for Valentine's day for Chris. He keeps telling me now to spend money on him so I went with cheap. It's so cute and clever. I'll put my step by step post up on how I did it when Vday gets closer.



2. I have decided to start the "Fab-Ab-February" exercise routine for February. I am just a few days late but I am starting tonight. I bought a kettlebell a few weeks back and will some how work that in since I am a little behind. Wish me luck!!


3. I have had more time lately, since I'm in pretty easy classes this semester, to read my Nook. I started reading "One For The Money" last week and I am so close to being done. I can't wait to read the rest!


4. I found my weekend Pinterest craft. I am going to organize my keys. 'Bout time I do something with them. Chris is always giving me a hard time because all of my keys look the same. I just don't know which colors to use..



5. And last but not least..tonight is Hello Texas. One of my favorite nights of the year. It is a night where the talen of Deer Park HS gets to shine. It jsut keeps getting better & better every year.


I hope everyone is having a fabulous Friday : )

Product Of The Week

For Christmas my mom got me the microdermabrasion set from Mary Kay. I've never been one to get excited about Mary Kay products like I do with other things, but I must say it is absolutely phenomenal. Every night I was my face using Lever 2000's bar soap, Clean & Clear Morning Burst Shines Control, and mousterize with Loreal's Futur E.
Every couple of nights, if I'm not too tired, I open up my cabinet and pull out that set and go to work.

There are 2 parts to the kit:
Step 1: Refine
Step 2: Replenish
(I use this as an around-the-eye cream instead of all over my face)

HERE is a link to Mary Kay's website incase you want to try it out. If you need a name of a consulatnt, I would be happy to help you out!

 The good thing about this set is that you don't have to use it long to see results.


You're My Bestfriend

For almost 2 years now, I have shared my life with not only my best friend but he is also my boyfriend. Today I couldn't help thinking about how blessed I am to have him in my life.

Christopher Jordan Roy,
I love you to the moon & back : )

Invisalign

So mostly everyone knows that I started wearing Invisalign about 6 weeks ago.
I absolutely love it..way more than I would have ever loved regualr braces at the age of 21.
When I first hear that I was going to have to have braces, I was terrified. All I could think about were my lips getting all cut up and when I would smile at someone, all they could see was metal.
I was NOT having that at all, so I settled for Invisalign which is NOT covered by my insurance.

I have the most amazing Orthodontist, Dr. May, who is absolutely incredible! He has worked with me in everyway possible and I appreciate him for that. He has an outstanding staff who I adore. I definetly recommend their office!
Here is what my mouth looked like at week 1.


Looks a little worse than it does up close..
Every 2 weeks, you switch your trays. Pretty easy to remember.

Here is tray 2



And I just finished tray 3 yesterday and started tray 4.


Not too much of a difference since I 1st started, but I am making progress.
For those of you who care, HERE is a link to the video of progress from beginning to end.
