Blogger Vacayyy

Now... thats out the way, let me explain! 


My life has been a serious whirlwind. Have you ever felt like you're at crossroads? And you're like what the H-E-DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS am I suppose to do? Welp, thats me... NOW! 


But no more bloggy hiatus for me. I MISSED YOU GUYS BUNCHES! 


sooo... Tomorrow Razzle is back at it FULL FORCE!

Hot Cocoa and Donuts

Several weeks ago I dabbled with homemade hot cocoa.... It was good, but not worth all the trouble when you can just open a pack of diet swiss miss and its ready in a minute and a half. This past weekend the weather was CRAY! We had freeze warnings at night and then it would hit mid 60's during the day... 

Cold weather makes me want hot cocoa and chocolate glazed KK donuts. 

BUT

I fought the urge and reminded myself of BIKINIS! 

{so I stared at these pictures like a freaking lunatic} 

COME ON FULL TIME SPRING! 

Birthday Pictures 1

 THANK YOU FOR ALL THE BIRTHDAY WISHES. YALL KNOW HOW TO MAKE A GAL BLUSH! 

As I'm editing my little heart out on my birthday pictures, here are a few from the celly! Those two are my best fraannns.

I want to say a super special thank you to my beautiful dear friend Kizzy! She sure does know how to make a girl feel special. Love you! 

It's My BIRTHDAY!

I'm 22 today!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day. Eat a piece of cake, chocolate, or some ice-cream for me. 

Take Me Back..

Lord help the people if a Spice Girls song comes on. I am that person in the store who sings along to the tunes and ,sometimes, I may even bust out a jig or two.  { I may have forgotten to tell you I'm the 6th member of SG!}

There is nothing that can take me back like a song.

When I hear any Alanis Morissette, Jewel, Tracy Chapman, Dave Mathews, or Goo Goo Dolls I think of cassettes and family days. Makes me have a warm fuzzy wuzzy feeling. {My ma' has good taste in music}

I can remember things to a T when certain songs come on like the smells, what I was wearing, who I was with, if I was happy or sad, all the emotions come RUSHING back for that 3 and half minutes.

I think thats the closest Ill ever come to time travel.

What songs take you back? What'd you grow up grooving to?

{by the way my students are like "what are cassettes?"-they're about to be schooled!}


Memory you won the giveaway! I'll contact you today

Beauitful Me

I've always been a believer of "Fake it til you Make it". My 22nd birthday is monday and for the FIRST time I like what I see in the mirror. I've spent too much of my life judging myself through someone else's eyes and trying to be someone else instead of being the BEST ME.

Now when I'm looking in the mirror  I don't see flaw after flaw I see a beautiful ME that God spent His precious time molding, creating, and still tweaking. 

I have a big scar on my back from heart surgery that I've always been self conscious about but now I see a miracle. A constant reminder of God's love, grace, and to live life with purpose. 

"Never be ashamed of scars that life has left you with. A scar means the hurt is over, the wound is closed, you endured the pain and God has healed you."

{found quote on Pinterest}

For any lady {or man} out there, you know this is a big AHA moment in life. I feel an overwhelming sense of peace and patience. I know that God isn't finished with me yet, and we're just getting to the good part. 

March Sponsors

Ladies, 

It's about that time where I take down old buttons and add new ones. 

BUT

I'm only going to put up 10 from now on. I think its starting to look a bit cluttered and I know you want the most traffic flow headed to your blog.

Ive seen a lot of blogs lately that cram like 30 blog buttons, and its so distracting and no one pays attention.. I won't more for my readers and monthly bloggy friends.

Ive been a bad blogette for the past week and a half. I promise this is changing... TODAY! 

CUPID HAS A SURPRISE FOR YOU TOMORROW

My face has cleared up and its beaming, so I guess the hives for a week was WORTH IT! 

Have a fabulous weekend my little nuggets. 

Lobsta Face

Don't judge me- no makeup. ;)

Last thursday I had a chemical peel. When I left it looked phenomenal, when I woke up friday it was still looking great, and then saturday I woke up and I was covered in hives. My ear lobes are going to be the death of me. They are super sensitive already and now they itch and ugh. Just know I am miserable! I'm hoping that this will all be gone by thursday! {FINGERS AND TOES CROSSED}

Oh and if you noticed the bling on my nose, NO it is not real, I just stuck it on to see what it would look like.

DONT FORGET TO MAIL YOUR VALENTINE'S OUT!!
