Happily Ever Johnson: 6 Months to Go!

Did you enjoy all that snow we got this weekend? My son was super happy to get outside and play in the snow! Well we are six month away from the big day!! I don't think I started freaking out yet but probably will as it gets closer and closer. I put up this picture on Facebook on New Years Day with the caption Mr. and Mrs. Johnson in 2017!



I have been in full wedding mode for a while and just trying to get things together, make sure we have everything and so on. The invitations have been ordered and I love them! That process was so hard! There were way too many choices to choose from and it was hard trying to narrow it down but the person who I ordered them from was super helpful! She really explained what I could and could not change on certain invitations, how my wedding colors would fit into the invites, how different fonts would look and so on. I was glad that I could make a decision because I honestly would still be looking at invitations lol. I have my centerpieces, bouquets and boutonnieres picked out (Thank you Pinterest lol) so I just have to go out with my wedding planners (aka My Mom and Aunt) to find everything we need for them. I have the guest list pretty much done, just need to figure out the seating charts which will probably drive me crazy lol! I'm trying to figure out wedding favors and other small things. Our plans are really coming together and its exciting! Here is an inspiration of the color scheme for the wedding that I got of course from Pinterest lol!

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post  here.  I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

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 ...
