Olympic Makeup

I absolutely LOVE the Olympics. I cry at the opening ceremonies and bawl when they are over. It reminds me of so many memories watching as a child, and the stories of the athletes are even better than the medal count. I think it's hilarious that the majority of the events I don't have any awareness of for four years and then the Olympics come around and it's like...Half Pipe! Luge! Speed Skating! Even CURLING is riveting. I mean, seriously.
My favorite? Figure Skating of course. As a performer I truly have no idea how they go through the pressure of the world watching them, the interviews right after they skate and only having four minutes to prove years of dedication. They fall so hard and have to get right back up with a smile on their faces. Did you see Jeremy Abbott's performance? The ultimate pick yourself up of the ground situation and the way the Russian crowd supported him was so moving. I was crying again.
So the Olympic gold medal goes to red lips! I was very happy to see red lipstick on so many of the ladies figure skaters. So dramatic and classically beautiful! Here are my favorites.
The Queen-Yuna Kim elegantly wearing red lipstick with a beautiful sequined yellow dress.

The many faces of Ashley Wagner accentuated with...red lipstick.
I don't think I ever see Gracie Gold without red lipstick on and this makes me a proud American. ;)

But these two won the figure skating gold for me. Hope you were able to catch their hilarious, wise, and entertaining commentary!

My Valentine

A little dedication to my soul mate.
No chocolate, flowers, or stuffed whatnots are needed to connect two people at the heart over and over, day by day, year after year. This guy makes me feel cherished, honored, safe, beautiful and admired 24/7 365 days a year, and I am more in love with him than ever. Surround yourself by those who do the same...find soul mates everywhere...be it in a spouse, partner, parent, child, or pet because love is the FUEL of life!

Happy Valentines Day!!

Rupert the Magnificent

The best part about this month was celebrating this little puppys first year on earth. 

I grew up being afraid of dogs, then I kinda wanted one, then I was obsessed with getting one, and then we fought for one, found him, and he has completely exceeded every expectation a person would want from a child. I mean pet. ;) He is kind, loving, fun, playful, loving, obedient, respectful, loving and always "goes" where he's supposed to. That's a big one. And did I mention he's loving?

We love you back Rupert!! so much it hurts!! Happy Birthday!
Next stop...Hollywood! I mean...LOOK AT HIM!!
This was our Holiday card for 2013 
Here are some outtakes:

Watch out for his tricks reel-it's coming to a YouTube near you! 
Yes we are those people and no we are not sorry.
Have a great day leaning to light!
