A Few of my Favorite Things!

I was tagged by Jessi who had a great idea to list 5 things you have recently came across or bought that you love or has made your life better or easier. If you read this consider yourself tagged and post 5 of your favorite things.

1. Tivo. Need I say anything more? For those of you who know me, know that TV is my "time-out" time and I think every mommy needs Tivo! Some of the regulars in my box are: Lost, Grey's, Jon & Kate Plus 8, Ellen, The Hills, anything on E!..just to name a few :) You know where I am every night once the kids are in bed and my husband is downstairs working on his latest project :)

2. LoveSac. Last weekend, we totally scored at a neighbors garage sale! We bought a brand new LoveSac that hasn't even been broken in for $60...it is $400 brand new. It is everyone's favorite spot in the house, even Colts. He lounges on it with his blankie and watches cartoons.

3. Bare Escentuals Makeup. This is the best stuff in the world. I have used it for 2 years now and could never imagine using anything else! Nordstrom finally carries it so I don't have to buy it online anymore! They have the best lip glosses and eye shadows....everything in my makeup tray is BE except my Mary Kay mascara!

4. Stampin' Up. I have to 2nd Jessi & Amberly. Stamping and scrapbooking is the easiest way to find some quick fullfillment in my creative life. It is so addicting! I love sitting down for 10 minutes sometime in the day to stamp a quick card. I started selling it just so I could get the discount and now I share my discount with everyone else! Aren't I the greatest :)

5. Real Simple Magazine. I discovered this magazine after my surgery and it took me 2 days to get through one magazine. I read every single article and there was such a great variety of things. I immediately signed up for a subscription and now it's the highlight of my month when I get it! I can't bear to throw them away so I need to find something to do with them! And I just discovered online that you can get a free trial on their website. It's awesome...try it out!
