Home Sweet 'homa

So many people are asking what they can do to help in the Moore, Oklahoma tragedy.  Right now, there isn't much that can be done because they want people to stay away so they can continue their search efforts.  One thing you can do though, is donate.  You can text REDCROSS to 90999.  It automatically adds 10$ to your phone bill.  I know it doesn't seem like much but imagine if everyone did this...it adds up fast!  I know the Red Cross was on the scene right after the tornado struck passing out water and other necessities so every little bit helps.


Please continue to pray for those that lost their homes and/or loved ones.  This serves as a reminder to all of us that we can't wait till the last minute to take shelter.  We have to listen to the meteoroligsts and be prepared.  I know that they [the weather channel] sometimes like to "hype" it up, but it really makes me sad to have heard people make comments such as "Nothing is going to happen." or "Why is everyone freaking out?"  To those people I say, Better Safe Than Sorry.

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Halloween Treats

For work gifts this year, I used these free printables  and these free printables  to make these cute little treats!  I had a lot of fun making them.  I dragged my poor mom and David around to so many stores looking for different colored Tic Tacs and eyeball candy.  I wanted very badly to make the Vampire Vitamins...who knew it would be so hard to find red Tic Tacs! I also made this easy Halloween Bark. What You Need:   1 Package Halloween Oreos Candy Corn 2 Packages Wilton Candy Melts in White Halloween Sprinkles - I ended up using different sprinkles than the ones in the picture...a girl has a right to change her mind, right? Pretzels - I stole these out of our Trick-or-Treat bowl because I felt like it needed something to offset all the sweetness. 1. Crumble up the Oreos.  I crushed some by hand, some in my food processor and broke some in halves and some in fourths.  Spread out on cookie sheet over wax/parchment paper.  Sprinkle candy corn
