Lets Talk Polish....

I LOVE nail polish! Love it! I am a big fan of having my fingernails and toes painted! One of my favorite things to do is go and get a manicure and pedicure. Its the thoughest decision when I go in because I never know if I want to go with red or pink! But as I always say, when all else fails, go with pink!! My favorite pink polish is OPI's "Thats So Pink"....it doesn't look bright here but its a bright neon pink that looks great with a tan!


A new one I have found is China Glaze's "Japenese Koi". I LOVE this color! Its a bright orangy red color and very neat! Its different the just going with the normal red or pink. Very funky!




But, my ALL time favorite color is "Cajun Shrimp"! I discovered this color a couple of years ago and love love love it! Its a very very bright red with a splash of orange!

In the summer time I prefer to wear the pink tone and in the fall I would rather wear the red tones. What are your favorite nail polish colors? Where is your favorite place to get a manicure or pedicure?

Massage

So...my boss got me a gift certificate for a massage oh...about 4 months ago! LOL! Anyways, I have had yet to use it. Last week she asked if I had gone and got my massage yet and I told her that I hadn't...well she immediately picked up her phone and called down to make me an appointment! She made it for 4:30 so I left work an hour early today and headed to Massage Envy (one of the massage places here in town) for my appointment! Monica was my masseuse's name and man was she WONDERFUL! Why have I not scheduled my massage yet?? I loved every minute of my 60 minute massage! I will definetly be going to get another one! Have you had a massage before?? If so, where is your favorite place to go?

Surprise!

It feels like I have not blogged in FOREVER! We have been staying pretty busy in the Avey house hold lately! Last Friday night we went out to dinner with our friends Kari, Mark, DK, Christin, Colby and Parson...we went to Johnny Carinos and boy was it DELICIOUS! We then were all tired so we came back to our house to watch a movie. Saturday morning we woke up and went to my Memaw's to mow her yard....it was actually so fun because I got to ride my Papa's Grasshopper....I don't think Nathan had near as much fun as I did! Once we finished mowing it was time to head home to take a shower and get ready for Aunt Dar and Uncle Mikes Surprise Birthday / Anniversary party! I helped my cousins MiKael and Shelley get ready for it and it turned out so great!

Me and Mrs. Reese :) She makes me smile!

The banner we made...."A Year of BIGS"...it was Aunt Dar's 50th birthday, Uncle Mike's 50th birthday, and their 30th Wedding anniversary



Delicious! MiKael and Shelley testing out the potato salad!

Cute tables we set up! One for each of their birthdays and one for their anniversary!

We had SO much fun this weekend I sure do love my family!
Ok...so I may be the only weird person on the planet that has done this, but I have a "Top 50 things to do before Im 50" list...I know I know! So dumb! Anyways, last week my parents officially marked one thing off of that list for me!! They are taking us kids to see the Razorbacks play at the......BRAND NEW DALLAS COWBOYS STADIUM!! Now this may not excite you but I am so unbelievably excited about it! I won't get to see my beloved Cowboys play but I will get to see the stadium they play in which is enough for me! Thanks Mom and Dad! Your the best!
On another vacation note, I am headed to the beach in 12 DAYS!!! Daytona beach here we come!! I am in desprate need of a vacation and am so thrilled to be going on one in less than 2 weeks! Please pray for us to have a safe trip down there and back!
Well, I think that is it for now! Hope everyone has a GREAT rest of the week! I am off to work tomorrow and then a massage at 4:30....yay!
Love -
Chrissy!
