Dream House Ideas- Bathrooms
So Gabe and I have a tiny bathroom. I'm not exaggerating. You have to shut the door to open the drawers and two people cannot possibly brush their teeth at the same time. I hate it. But I know it's not forever and one day (hopefully in the next year) we'll have a house. So today's post is dedicated to bathrooms. :)

Blogging + Summer School = FAIL
Yikes! I can't believe I went an entire week without blogging. Where to begin...
-I have a few exciting things going on in my life that I hope I can share with you in the next few weeks! :)
-One of those exciting things is not me finding an internship for the fall. Ok I haven't really been looking lately due to the fact that physics is taking over my life.
-Taking 15 hours during the summer is just plain dumb.
-The past few weekends we've been going out with friends, so this weekend I'm hoping to have a slow relaxing weekend. Maybe a one on one date with Gabe. Or at least a night at home with some wine!
-If you live in central Arkansas I highly recommend eating at YaYa's in the Chenal Promenade. We went there last weekend with friends and it was AMAZING! It mainly has an upscale Greek menu. 5 stars in my book!
-It is HOT here. I mean miserably hot. To hot to even go outside. To hot to go to the pool or lake. So hot that I feel like my face is melting off the minute I step outside the door. Attractive right?
-My parents are going on a cruise next week since they had to cancel thier Gulf Shores vacation due to the oil. I wasn't invited due to the 15 hours of summer school consuming my life. Thanks mom.
-I'm not bitter though because Gabe and I have two cruises planned over the next year.
-After almost 23 years of perfect vision, my eyes have started to fail me and I now have contacts. Boo!
-I found a grey hair on Gabe the other day. He told me it was just a really blonde hair. It's not. We'll let him think it is though.
-My hair is almost totally brown now. It has a little blond still so its... Bronde? I like it though.
-One of my best friends and her husband are expecting their first baby!! Yay Meg and Greg! I've already started shopping in my mind for what is no doubt to be a very spoiled and loved child.
So there is a little catch up on my life! Hope everyone is doing well and I will try to catch up on ya'lls blogs today. Have a great weekend!

Happy Friday!
It's finally Friday! We have a jam packed weekend planned so no relaxing for me. Tonight we are going to dinner with two other couples and then having a few drinks on the deck at Cajun Wharfs. Tomorrow we are going to watch my little brother play in a baseball tournament. The first game is at nine and it will take us a little over an hour to get there. So as usual I'll be up bright and early. I'm still not even sure what our plans for Father's day are! I've been so busy with school the past two weeks that I feel like I'm going crazy. But I only have three weeks left of this Physics class before I move on to my Microbiology class. Is it sad I'm actually looking forward to Micro? Anything has to be better than Physics right?
Gabe surprised me the other night by suggesting we actually go on a real vacation in October when I'm on fall break. This summer we haven't been able to do an actual vacation since my school schedule is so crazy. (I'm taking 15 hours this summer!) He told me to pick what I wanted to do and we could go ahead and book it. I was torn between a New York trip or a cruise. I finally settled on a cruise because honestly all I want right now is to layout and relax. Oh and eat. :) So now I finally have more than just a quick weekend trip somewhere to look forward to!
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

It's Time For Another Product Review!
Well ya'll know by now that I'm a product junkie. I've tried them all! From department store to drug store. But my favorite products to write about are usually drug store products that surprise me. I also usually try to find a department store version that it's similar to. Anyway, on to the product review!
If you like Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation, retail value- $59.00:
Try Revlon Photo Ready Makeup:
Ok girls, this is a great drugstore foundation.
Lets start with the pros: It's sheer, but buildable and comes in a great bottle with a pump. It leaves your skin with a dewy finish and covers really well without looking cakey. Super blendable and covers most imperfections. It gave an overall healthy appearance to my skin. I pair this with my Make-Up Forever HD Microfinish Powder for an airbrushed finish. It has SPF 20. And it costs under $15.
What kind of a product reviewer would I be if I didn't give some cons though: The color choices are lacking. This is usually the problem with drugstore foundations. I also wouldn't recommend this for someone with oily skin because it does have light reflecting particles that give you that dewy finish. It could leave someone with oily skin looking even more oily.
Would I buy it again? Yes, but before this runs out I will probably be on to the next foundation! I can't seem to settle down with just one.
So has anyone tried this foundation? Love it or hate it?
Hope everyone had a good hump day! We're over halfway to the weekend now!

Dream House Ideas- Closets
So last week I shared my love of wine cellars with you. This week, it's my love of closets. Not just any closets though... ultra girly, ultra spacious, and loaded with storage closets. These are works of art to me.
