Baby Boy Nursery Nails

Turquoise, Gray, and White Baby Boy Nails

I felt inspired to do a fun little mani for my bump today. I’m calling them Nursery Nails because I think this would be the cutest color scheme for a baby boy nursery. I’m not really doing a “nursery” because our house is only two bedrooms so my boys will be sharing a room (if we can get our “man baby” 7 year old out of our bed sometime soon!) If I were to do a room in this scheme, I think I would …

My Favorite Things

Create a Pinterest “Wish List” Board

This might be my best idea EVER! I’ve had my wish list board up for a while now and would pin extremely expensive things like a vacation to the Four Seasons in Bora Bora or a $10,000 wedding ring or couture clothing. I just realized how useful this board is though for my husband and anyone else who needs to buy me a gift! I started pinning inexpensive wish list items, mostly from Etsy, so that when my b-day or Christmas rolls around, my dear …

Darwin. Evolution. Travel. Nails.

A Few Thoughts on Evolution, Adapting, Traveling, and Nails

My friend Jessica, who is also my lash girl and I’m her nail girl, is going on the trip of a lifetime this week to the Galapagos Islands. Not only is she going to the Galapagos, she is going with National Geographic.

If one ever gets the chance to go to the Galapagos, one should go with National Geographic. 🙂

I tried to talk her into the whole turtle/wildlife mani motif…but being the uber stylish hip girl that she is, she opted for a …

Get Your Feet Ready For Sandal Season!

I know other parts of the country are still in the throes of winter but just in case you think you might get a chance to wear sandals soon, I thought I would throw together a few tips to get your feet and toes looking pedi perfect!

Step 1–File Dry Skin

My favorite way to do an at home pedi is to start with dry feet, place a towel under your feet to catch the mess, and gently file away dry skin. This is my favorite foot file. It’s super cheap so …

Feature Friday–Crossfit, Kids, and Cottages…

If you follow me on social media, you might have noticed I LOVE Pinterest. It is definitely my biggest guilty pleasure. I still remember when Brenda Blake introduced me to it while I was giving her a pedicure a few years back. It’s been a passionate love affair with pinning ever since…

I’ve pinned thousands of amazing ideas but just recently decided I was going to start investigating the “Pinner behind the Pin” and thank goodness I did because I’ve found the most amazing blogs written by the most incredible people. …

Imagine Dragons Nails

Imagine Dragons.Nevada.OPI.

This is a little random and I really wish I had a great reason such as an upcoming concert visit or something really exciting for doing these nails…but no…I just felt inspiration because I love Imagine Dragons and I love Nevada and I love this yellow gel polish by OPI called I Just Can’t Cope-a-Cabana.

Ode To The Dragons

Last summer whenever “It’s Time” would come on the radio my little boy would get super excited (he was 6) and say “Turn it up Mom!” and then we’d start …

Flowers, Gardens, Bulbs, 70 degrees….Spring Is On The Way!!!

Hello everyone! We’ve had an absolutely gorgeous weekend here in St. George! It was over 70 and sunny all day yesterday. I am so sorry if it’s cold and miserable where you’re at. I feel for you. But I know deep down in my heart…spring is on the way! 🙂

There are few things in life that make me happier than planting flowers. I’ve been scouring Lowe’s for weeks waiting for them to get just a few flowers in stock. After my son’s Valentines Day party on Friday, I was finally …

Guest Post–My Sister Sarah’s Favorite Skincare Product!

My little sister Sarah is the ultimate Amazon shopper because she lives in the “outback” of Nevada and there aren’t a lot of options for shopping out there. When I told her we were adding an Amazon shop to my site, she immediately started telling me about products I had to add because they are so amazing. I’m going to let her tell you about her favorite product, which I wasn’t able to add right away because they were sold out of it for a few weeks. Hope you enjoy …

Better Homes and Garden’s Best of Blogger Nominations!

I LOVE Better Homes and Gardens! It is seriously one of my favorite magazines, websites, and cookbook. I use the cookbook all the time. Their waffle recipe is our family favorite but I modify it and add 4 eggs to add a little more protein. Westin requests them on any special occasion with strawberries and whip cream 🙂 I get tons of inspiration for home decor from the magazine and their pinterest boards too! Here are a few of my favorite Pins from their decorating boards…I would love for my …

Las Vegas New Year’s “I want to go on a tropical vacation” Nails PLUS my third YouTube Video!

We are going to Las Vegas soon so I couldn’t wait to get my Christmas tree down off my nails (check them out here) and put some FUN nails on that would be inspiring for a New Year and make me think of a white sandy beach and turquoise blue waters! I keep seeing pictures on Instagram of a few lucky souls who are going to Hawaii, the Caribbean, or even my dream vacation The Maldives like Aaron and Lauren Paul did for Christmas. They seem like such a cute …
