hurricane Sandy

I am a little nervous about the winds coming!!  I am hoping it calms down soon and passes by us with no damage to anyone's homes.  They are saying it should be really bad in PA starting tomorrow.  I have everything ready ~ flashlights, batteries, water, and food.  Praying for everything to be ok for us and for everywhere it has passed along the way.

It's open house at school

Tonight is open house at Adams school!! I am so excited to go visit his room and see what he has done!!!!!!

Brrr it's cold outside!

My child has autism...

My child has autism….

But that is only one of his many qualities.  He is ~ loving, happy, funny, handsome, strong, respectful, playful, smart, kind, friendly, courageous, forgiving, honest, sensitive, and unselfish.  And the list goes on…..  If Autism is all you see… then look at what else you are missing!  Take the time to sit down and get to know him.  He is more then you will ever know, if you are too afraid to do more than say hi there and then walk away.  My child is so much more than autism….

I love my child with all my heart and I am so thankful I get to spend so much time enjoying his company!!!

Covergirl and Olay foundation and press powder!

COVERGIRL & Olay

 
          Luminous coverage for ageless, radiant looking skin!

I love Covergirl and Olay make up, it is smooth, soft and makes my face look flawless.


I am a bzzagent and received this campaign, which I am so excited about and happy to share with all my family, friends and coworkers!

As soon as I received the box ~ I opened it and used it. I had family members stop by that focused quickly how beautiful and glowing my face looked, which made me very happy! I received coupons with the makeup and everyone has been grabbing them up. They also sent a booklet that explains the facts and how to use the product.

I love the design of the bottle. It is a pump, one pump instantly covers discolorations, lines and wrinkles while one bottle hydrates to help improve skin tome over time. I am plenty surprise that it only take one squirt/one pump to cover your whole face. It covers my blemishes, dark circles and laugh lines.

There are 14 different beautiful shades to choose from. If you visit the covergirl site it will help you get shade matched, you will discover tips and looks, and learn more about the product.

To complete your perfect look make sure to use the pressed powder. I love the way it feels, it is not heavy or cakey. It simply gives you a healthy, bright and soft look that hinds all imperfections.

Thank you Covergirl and Olay and Bzzagent for choosing me to bzz about these products. I am in love with them and I am sure you will be also. You can find them at most stores and in lots of shades. Have fun and watch out people will be looking at you and smiling! Trying to figure out what new.
