Happily Ever Johnson- Updates

It is crazy how you expect things to be vs reality of things. I can say that I expected different when planning a wedding and it is pretty much not how TV and movies made it look lol. Everyone has a different experience and mine is not like everyone else's. I'm just glad in a way that I'm not as stressed but this every little detail thing...ugh! I can say I have said YES to a dress! It was such a hard decision because I was between two dresses and it was so hard trying to choose one. I went with the one I kept thinking about, kept looking at the picture of myself in that dress over and over. I am so happy with my choice and can't wait til you guys see it. We have started our registries and still trying to put stuff on there. I didn't realize there was so much stuff and just trying to figure out what we really need and what to put on there. If I could I would put everything but you do have to narrow it down so people are not printing out a 20 page registry list. It can get overwhelming trying to shop for someone, I have shopped for many registries lol. I am getting a little frustrated because of this Zika virus that is around now. We want to have more children and it could be a risk for us having this destination wedding. I'm really trying to figure now the best thing to do. We both really don't want to change our plans again but on the other hand, we want to be healthy to have more kids ....ugh ...decisions...decisions...decisions. At the end of the day, I just want my Dad to walk me down the aisle and have memories with my husband (of course I want to slay in a wedding dress lol). In the meantime we are getting the Save The Dates together and I already started looking at invitations. I've been online and in stores looking. I want something that has our color scheme and just something really elegant and nice. I found this website Minted that you can request a free kit from.





They basically send you a couple sample invitations, different kinds of paper, colors, font and so on. This was so helpful so I can determine what style of invitation I would like. Hopefully it won't be so hard to pick out invitations lol. That is basically where we are right now with the planning. Let me know where you ordered your invitations from or any recommendations. Enjoy the rest of the week and see you guys Thursday!

  1. SO glad you picked your dress! Can't wait to see it! The zika virus is def scary...I feel like invitations were the easy part for me. Just pick a color that you want to be part of your wedding and go from there.

Make Beauty Review*

Happy Friday beauty lovers! I hope you have been enjoying Winter again lol! I hope Mother Nature gets it together soon lol. Today I am bringing you another review powered by BrandBacker! *I was sent these products for testing purposes and this is my opinion after using. Let's get into the reviews! *Powered By BrandBacker* I was pretty excited when I was picked for this campaign. I have tried a Make Beauty eyeshadow before and loved it. Honestly, I was expecting the samples to be a little bigger. I was a little disappointed in the lipstick sample, it was hard to use. It kept breaking when I was trying to apply it. Make Beauty is a very new company to me that I was introduced to through Birchbox.  They have just about everything from eyeshadows to contour kits. They also have a line for skincare as well. Alabaster Eyeshadow This shadow on the Make Beauty site is described as a soft eggshell with peach undertones. This shadow is a matte and can be used as a brow

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over
