I like big BUNS and I can not lie!

Ok so I have a confession... I like big BUNS! I have been wearing them a lot lately, mainly because I feel I have NO time whatsoever to get ready and this is the easiest and fastest way I can look and feel "put together" :)

I don't necessarily feel like I look amazing wearing a bun but I feel its a look most people can pull off, because it doesn't have to be perfect, and in fact it looks better if its not, the messier the bun the better!

I HEART Lauren Conrad buns!:) (sounds funny I know) I just love her style, she has the most laid back but yet polished looks, she and Rachels Zoe are at the top of my fashion guru list.

I love this "romantic" rendition of the messy bun.

Who thought the word "messy" could look so fabulous!

 

My bun is a bit to Prim and Proper in this photo, normally a bit more messy than this but dressed up or dressed down its perfect if you don't have the time on your hands to fuss with your hair!

 

Now alot of you, like me, don't have super thik hair and are probably thinking how the heck do I get a full volume bun with so little hair, You can do the way I did it with gym socks!

Yep! I said socks! Just head over to Openning Ceremony to get the full tutorial on how to make your own magic hair donuts and they have several ways to wear them!

Or if you don't feel like making your own you can go to Sally Beauty Supply store and buy Hair Stylers Mesh Chingnon its only about $4.00

Falling in Love with Fall

I don't know about you but my favorite time of the year is Fall, I love the trasitional seasons don't you? They are the most beautiful times of the year.  I could live without the snow that the dead of winter brings, and I could live without the scorching heat of summer, but If the year only had two season's I would pick spring and FALL!

Every day a different craft, this day we made saltdough Mickey Mouse pumkin patch!

Having a fall scavenger hunt for acorns for more fun fall projects

my kids had a blast picking up these acorns pretending to be squirrels!

 Family trips to the park when the weather is just right, catching water skeeters and having boat races...

And relaxing under a tree.

  If I could stay in Fall forever I would, I LOVE falling in love with FALL!

Stayin ALIVE!

All too often we take ourselves and life too seriously and we forget to have fun and let loose.  Luckily for me I have my own remedy for situations like this and it goes a little something like this..........

I love that my sister is always down for my crazy ideas, this is one reason I love visiting my family, they lift my spirit when Im feeling a bit down, and make me laugh hysterically until soda comes out my nose ;) And they always remind me of what is most important..... FAMILY
