The M.A.C. World

I totally live in the M.A.C./Makeup world and love it! I would love to share it with you as much as I can. Here's what's going on...

(I can't handle how beautiful this makeup is. Look at those amazing lips. Fall will be all about dark eyes and dark lips.)

Mineralized makeup is the rage these days. It's in Vogue, InStyle,Elle... all the fashion mags and even on an infomercial late at night. Here's why people love it...
1.It contains Calcite which is skin rejuvenating. Zinc which is great for people with sensitive skin or acne and has a natural form of ant-bacterial. Selenium which fights environmental damage. Seracite which gives a healthy sheen finish to the skin.
2.It's so natural that you can sleep in it.
3.It's made with yeast so it doesn't grow any bacteria.
4.M.A.C. is the number one seller of mineralized products in the industry and that is not even what they are known for. They also use 77 minerals in their products. That's a lot! You only have to have one mineral to call the product mineralized so make sure you ask questions about how many minerals are contains when buying a brand other than M.A.C.

We just launched a line called "Electro Flash"-"Electricity is our most precious resource...everybody, electrified! Light up this world, and the next!" The colors are amazing and all mineralized! Something for everyone. Go to their website to view the colors (maccosmetics.com).

Snack Time

Tostitos Multi-Grain Chips with Parmesan Artichoke Dip with Spinach...heat the dip in the microwave for a minute, stir and serve it warm...delicious! The chips are so flavorful and taste so much better than regular corn chips...not to mention they are better for you. Chips are at your local grocer and the dip you can find at Costco.

Mullet Kid Rock Weekend

Each year I go back to my hometown for some good mullet watching, cig smelling, and some serious family time. I love every second of it! It starts with a pedicure with my Mom from my lil sis Brenda, then lots of cake, tasteless bean Navajo tacos from the carnies, and some good music live from Rodney Adkins and Chris Young with the fam.


Saturday was the HUGE parade full of trucks, horses, and more trucks. No floats, just trucks. Bret Micheals from Poison was there on Saturday night and we had access to back stage. We were a little nervous and thought it would be scandalous so we chickened out. I know...we're crazy for not using our resources. It was a mullet fest...long, short, you name it it was there. It was a great night with my sisters.

Ok, your going to die...this is the best carni food ever...curly fries (deep fried of course) with feta cheese crumbles on top. I will never forget it! Find it wherever the carnies hang out.

I look forward to this weekend every year and especailly for the time I get with my great family. Mullets and all!

M.A.C. here I come!

I'm bbbbbbbbbaaaaaaaaack! Started back at M.A.C. and am loving getting all my creative juice flowing again. That's partly why I have been a slacker with my posts. It's a rough job playing in makeup all day. Ha!

B-Day

I love birthdays! However, it's weird but I seriously forget how old I am now. It's always a day full of gratitude for all that love and think about you, pampering, good food, and feeling like you can do whatever you want. This year was no different...
The day started off with a delivery of these beautiful flowers from Boogie.
My adorable "Rock Star" sister was here to spend time with me for my day.

My Mom got this delicious cake from "Sweet Inspirations" in Green River, Wyoming. This place knows how to make some seriously good cakes...chocolate with buttercream frosting is this one and my sister and I ate most of it in 2 days. If your ever passing through, you have to stop at this place. It's totally worth it!
Boogs took me to the "Roof" in Salt Lake City where we ate with Moroni. He was practically standing right next to our table. Food is amazing...Shrimp Cocktail, Seafood Chowder, Lion House Rolls with Honey Butter (my most favorite) and they bring them warm, Prime Rib, Marinara Halibut, Creme Brule, Chocolate-covered Strawberries, oh my gosh I could go on forever. If you've never been there, it's at the top of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building so you are level with the top of the temple. You're view is unbelievable and the atmosphere is very classy, but comfortable. There is a large white grand piano with a pianist in the middle playing classic hits. One of my favorite parts of the night was the waitress brought out a dessert plate and while she brought it out the pianist played "Happy Birthday". I loved being there with my sweet husband. He makes each birthday special.

Snack Time

Snack time today is homemade salsa with Tostitos white corn chips while watching the city workers mow the city property behind us. Ummm...I think there is something wrong with this picture. I think I'll start working for the city if I get to watch someone else work with all my buddies. I'm also listening to Top 20 on XM however, it got scandalous so I switched it to Contemporary Christian. I'm feeling better already! Here's the recipe for this amazing salsa that won't stop going into my mouth...shoot!...how do I get it out of the keyboard?

Moab Family Vaca!

Boogs and I went to Moab with family this weekend. Holy fun, holy warm, holy Audry can't stop taking pictures and eating. Here are some photos and I know...they are a great looking family

Right before hitting the BIG rapids on the river.

All of us still waiting to get on the BIG rapids.

Boogs and his bro.

On Boogie's birthday gift for the first time heading to a place called Gemini Bridges. It's so fun being behind your sweetie with the wind blowing in your face, screaming deep conversations to each other.

Boogs and his other bro Jrrd. No it's not misspelled, that's how we say it.

We were in charge of dinner the first night so we made Pulled Pork sandwiches on Granatos hard rolls, Bean and Corn Salsa with Corn Chips, Bowtie Oriental Pasta Salad with Fresh Spinach, Fresh Watermelon (from Costco of course), and Caramel Popcorn for dessert.

Pulled Pork Sandwiches

3-4 Pound Pork Roast

2 Onions, sliced (optional)

16 oz. Sweet Baby Rays BBQ Sauce

1/3 C. Honey

Place pork in the crock-pot with onions. Mix the bbq sauce and honey together and pour over the roast and onions. Cook on low for 8 hours. Shred the meat with 2 forks and keep it in the sauce. Serve on rolls (needs to be on hard rolls so the bread does not get soggy) or hamburger buns.

Sunday morning for Father's Day we went to a breakfast place called Jailhouse Cafe. It used to be the old jail and they are now a Cafe that is only open for breakfast. Menu was great:

Eggs Benedict, Swedish Pancakes, Berry Waffles and hot chocolate oozing over the top with

chocolate and whipped cream.

This was such a great weekend with the family! We were missing two people and we definitely missed them. Each person's personality contributes something to a family and it's obvious in our family when these two are missing. We love you Autumn and Aaron and missed you!
