Head over to either Tara's blog or Katie's blog to link up with them for Birchbox Brag.

This is my very first box I ordered. A few of my friends get it and so I wanted to see what it was all about.

If you are not familiar with Birchbox and don't know what it is...basically for $10 a month they send you some trial sizes of various beauty products.

All the links will take you directly to that product on their website.

I also got a sample for the new Birchbox Man.


We'll see how the hubs likes it.

So that's my box for June. I haven't had a chance to use all the products yet, so we will see, but I think I did well for my first box.

Can't wait to link up!

I saw Snow White and the Huntsman a couple weeks ago. I went to the premiere before it opened to the public. I loved it.

I'm planning on seeing Rock of Ages tonight with Falen.

True Blood started last Sunday night. Seriously love that show. So excited to see Christopher Meloni a/k/a Elliott Stabler on the show this season.

The Bachelorette is getting so good. "This week she told a guy to "Get the F**k out."


I was nervous that she was going to be too nicey, nicey, but she is a sassy little thing.

My new nail color this week is OPI Pink Flamenco.

It's the perfect Summer pink.

Loving this song right now: Katy Perry - "Wide Awake"


Our cousins just opened up their new restaurant in downtown Robbinsdale. They officially opened Monday morning. It's called Birdtown Cafe. Hubs has been twice this week already. I can't wait to go and try the Eggs Benedict. It's my fave and he said it was so good! This is where my MIL works as well. She is officially back to work after 1+ year of being laid off. Yay!!

With her being back to work, means that we are in flux with someone to watch Hailey. This week we used my Mom everyday, but she lives about 20 minutes from us. It's not horrible, but some days with the traffic back and forth. I think we might be looking into getting a Nanny. We'll see. 

I can't believe we go to New York next week! I haven't started packing, but I have made a list. Go figure...me with a list. We are so excited for our family trip!

I just got my first Birchbox yesterday in the mail. I haven't had a chance to use anything out of it yet, but will be blogging about that on Monday!

Lately I have been obsessed with these:

Our first weekend in May was spent in Los Angeles, California. West Hollywood to be exact. There was a new show premiering at the end of the month called "Men at Work" on TBS and Wayne was asked to go to the press junket and represent KDWB.

We were thrilled. All expenses paid trip for 2 out to California?? Hell yea!! Here is a breakdown and a slideshow of our trip.

We stayed at The London West Hollywood, which was beautiful.
We had a driver wherever we went.
We had a hospitality suite at the hotel filled with snacks and drinks.
We went and toured the shows set at Sony Picture Studios in Studio #25.
We met the stars of the show and got pictures with each one.
We watched the pilot episode.
We went out to eat at BOA Steakhouse which is a super fancy and delicious restaurant.
We had breakfast each morning at the Gordon Ramsay in our hotel.
We had massages at the Ciel Spa in the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills.
We sat at the rooftop pool at our hotel and got some sun!
Wayne interviewed the cast and writer, Breckin Meyer, of the show one on one. 
We took a cab to Santa Monica Beach.
We walked the Third Street Promenade.
We attended the roof-top launch party with food/drinks and gifts.
We ate at In-N-Out Burger for the first time.
We met some really cool people.
We had a great weekend away.


We missed Hailey so much.
