I work at MAC....right?

Hello everyone!! This is my first post on here that I have written for myself. My amazing sisters are so diligent at posting, but I am lacking.  The three of us all have very different styles and different interests, but at the same time they all sort of mesh together. I love animal print, bold lipstick and loose shirts and today I combined all three of those into one look. 

Funny story: I was walking around the mall with my little baby girl B, and I decided to walk into the MAC store and take a look around. The second I walked in, a woman that worked there stopped me and said, "Your lipstick is Ruby Woo isn't it?" So I smiled and nodded and we chatted for a little bit about lipstick. Then a woman that didn't work at the store came up to me and started asking me all kinds of questions about some of the lipsticks and other products in the store. I was answering them all very well, if I do say so myself! Then she asked me how long I had been working there.....oops! I guess that will teach me to walk into MAC wearing all black and bright red lips. Oh, and that proves that I am slightly obsessed with  makeup!

sunday snapshot


Just me today peeps! I am obsessed with leopard print and fur right now, so I am almost shocked that I don't have any fur on. But I do have my pop of color with my green and coral accessories. It has been highs of 20 the past couple weeks, so I am glad to have even gotten this picture out in the cold, even if I do have "the sun is too bright and I am freezing" look on my face. It'll do.

stop motion in progress

The first stop motion with all 3 of the sisters is being worked on right now! Full of lots of randomness and a lot of things that would only be funny to us. Like this picture... I am the shortest one but I look freakishly tall. Awesome:)

watched this video in spanish class


I thought that it was pretty funny.

I have been in Spanish class since pretty much Elementary school. You think that I would be fluent by now. I mean, it should just be in my blood because I AM half Puerto Rican (yes, you heard me right. don't let the blonde haired blue eye thing fool you.) And in college it took me a while to get started in taking Spanish again. I cannot say that I procrastinated for no reason, because when I did finally start taking it again that is where I met my hubby, Josh. But then last semester I avoided moving forward to the next class again. I attended a few classes but the teachers were boring, or there were really annoying girls in the class and really, I just was not feeling it. I knew that I had to get back to it eventually though. I feel like I am meant to speak Spanish.

Sometimes I just get the feeling that I am walking but getting no where at the same time. I am hoping that feeling will go away as I try to push through all the learning. Even though I feel like I am meant to do certain things in my life, thinking about how much I have to grow to get there is a little scary and some days seems impossible.

This scripture, and reliance on my Heavenly Father, gets me through these sometimes taunting thoughts.

Ether 12: 27 And if men come unto me I will show unto them their aweakness. I bgive unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my cgrace is sufficient for all men that dhumble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make eweak things become strong unto them.

Knowing that my weaknesses can become my strengths is an amazing gift. I feel blessed just to even understand and know this scripture. It gives me perspective and strength to push through, not jut with Spanish, but other trials that I have and other weaknesses that I want to overcome.

found this little gem

May 17, 2009 

Dear Webit,
I just wanted to inform you that I miss you lots. My life just isn't complete without my little sister who wishes she was me (I know you wanted to keep it a secret, but the hair is a dead give away ;)) You are the sunshine to my banana split and the cherry to my day :) I love you so much and I think that you should graduate already and come to college with me. We would have lots of fun! haha. :) I love you Webit and I hope you have a wonderful week of school. Text me if you ever need me... or call if you want me to sing you a lullaby as you fall asleep (Smack That, Right Now, Let it Rock) (These are song titles not something dirty :))
LOVE YA MEAN IT
Chelsers :)




This is true sister love. :)
