Katy Perry?

I was urged by a few people to post this awesome video of my daughter on my blog...for those that aren't friends with me on Facebook.

The back story around this song is that she went to a Daddy/Daughter dance with my husband about a month ago at her dance studio. She danced with her dance teacher (who she loves) to this song and we've basically been listening to it ever since. Enjoy!!

Monday

In case you weren't aware, it's Monday...again. Bleh! 


On the up side, we're that much closer to the weekend. So drink your caffeine and try to hide out until about 5pm!  


I wonder if I could just get an IV of Starbucks Chai Latte?  It's literally the greatest drink ever!

Weekend Randoms

We had a fun but incredibly busy weekend!  They always seem more hectic when you've been flying mostly solo because your husband has had crazy shifts at work!  I think we saw him 1 night last week for the entire night.

My cousin and his wife were visiting from Colorado, so we met up with my family for dinner when I got off work Friday evening. Of course Edwin had to work late yet again, so it was just Peyton and I.  It was so great to see them both!  

When I got home and put her to bed, I spent the rest of the evening working on Jamberry stuff. I'm seriously having so much fun with it already!  I did my first manicure Friday and immediately got questions about my nails when we were at dinner. In fact, I've been asked about my nails ALL weekend!  Here's a pic of my 1st manicure attempt...


I LOVE it!!!  I've had a busy weekend and my manicure is still going strong!

Saturday Peyton had a play date with her friend Claire. They had a great time playing dress up, painting, decorating cupcakes and running around. 



We celebrated my Nana's birthday that evening and had a great time eating and listening to stories about when she was young. I could sit for hours listening to her!  

Then today we had church then went out to lunch with a couple from our church afterward. After nap time Peyton and I ran errands, did crafts and she crashed hard. 

We're all exhausted and I can't believe tomorrow is already Monday!  But for now I'm going to relax and enjoy The Walking Dead!!!!!  


I hope you all had a great weekend!

Announcement!

Let me start off by saying that NO, I'm not pregnant!  Most of you know that I'm both a Mommy and I work full time.  I'm truly blessed to have a good job with great benefits, but even with 2 full time incomes things come up.  We've had a few of those large, unexpected expenses pop up recently and they were no fun!  I'm not a fan of credit cards and really want to work on growing our "nest egg" for savings, unexpected emergencies, vacations, etc...

That being said, I've decided to take on a new side venture with a company I just recently learned about.  As of today....

I am a new consultant for Jamberry Nails!!!




I actually found out about this company from a sweet blogging buddy, Ashlynn (check out her blog).  She just recently became a consultant and had her first party on Facebook.  I was immediately hooked when I looked at the website and saw how incredible this product is.  Those that know me know my toenails are ALWAYS painted and I love keeping my fingernails painted.  But let's face it, nail polish chips by day 2...3 if you're lucky.  I get so tired of always repainting my fingernails.  With Jamberry's I don't have to, and they're so much more fun than bland polish!  




You're probably asking "what in the world is Jamberry"?  They're non-toxic nail wraps that bond and seal to your nails with nothing but heat from your hairdryer!  They last up to 2 weeks on fingernails and 4-6 weeks on toenails. 

They seriously have a pattern for any outfit you could imagine.  If you're not in to funky patterns, that's fine too.  There are tons of solid colors, french tips, etc...  With spring and summer coming, these things are a dream come true for me!






 Another thing I love is that they have Jamberry's for kids!  My almost 4 year old is already requesting different patterns and I love the thought of not having to paint her nails every few days!




If you have any questions or want to know more about Jamberry, feel free to email me at Jessecu82@yahoo.com.  You can also go on my website and place an order or book a party any time you want by visiting www.jessicakillette.jamberrynails.net.  I can't wait to hear from you!

I've been trying out some different styles and will be posting here, on my Facebook page as well as Instagram (@Jessecu82).

Daddy/Daughter Dance

So whats been going on since the last time I blogged?  A lot actually, but I'm not going to do a huge post and recap all of our holiday festivities or our 2nd Annual WBTB Officer's Gala (which was amazing by the way).  I'm going to keep it current instead.

Last Friday Peyton's dance studio held their Father Daughter Dance and my sweet husband took her.  Y'all it was the cutest thing ever.  I seriously teared up when the left, like she was headed to the prom or something.  He said she had a blast!  She spent the first 20-30 mins dancing with a friend before it got too crowded, then danced with her Daddy after it got super crowded.  Her dance teacher danced with her to Katy Perry's song "Roar" and we had to listen to that song ALL weekend on repeat...I'm not even exaggerating.













I'm so blessed to have a husband that's willing to do things like this with his little girl...I know too many who aren't!  I love making these memories!
