Latest Project...

For my best friend Abbey's 20th birthday I wanted to do something special....it is so hard to feel like I have ever done enough for Abbey. She is such an amazing and thoughtful friend, that nothing ever seems great enough!
I went to Roberts one day and saw these really cool magnetic boards and i thought it would be fun to personalize one for her. So after searching all over the store for just the right paper, I went home to get started...

With Steven's help, we Mod Podged the paper onto the wooden boarder and added paper to the magnets to match. I threw a few pictures of us on there, and I think it turned out pretty cute. She was pleased :) It was really exciting to try something new. A little frustrating, but it always feels better when you are all done and can see the fruits of your labors! :)

I'm so grateful for Abbey's friendship. I don't know what I would do without her. The Lord told me that he has "blessed me with wonderful friends in my youth." I believe Abbey is the most wonderfullest friend of them all!!! :) Happy Birthday friend, I love you!

Hair School Update

Well everyone, I am 5 months through my journey in hair school! It has flown and I hope it continues too! :) I have learned some way fun things!!
Recently i did full set of nails on myself. I have done this a few times but I am so excited...we are on day 4 and they haven't lifted yet!!! YAY, I'm getting better!
This last week I did a way fun A-line cut on one of the girls in school. I surprised myself, it looked great...i was very excited! I am always getting great practice cutting hair at school...but it is my favorite doing friends and family! Over thanksgiving I cut Michaels hair (cousin), my mom's (right before the wedding), last week i did Steven's, and yesterday i cut Natalie Utrera's hair. ( A little girl from my home ward)! And I am hoping to do something to Jade's hair sometime this week! Thanks for everyone's support... and bravery! :)
