This is what summers all about..

Seeing awesome movies, Despicable Me 2 was so good, literally nearly cried at the end.


 My little cousin Willow turned 1, times flies! 

My family had a little garden party for her which was lovely, the cake was  Minion, made by her mum. Here is the little birthday girl..

 
 The twins were there chilling in there chairs having some grub, such a pair of cuties.

 
Summer so far has been about spending time with family, we have had a few really nice days out just walking the dogs, and swimming in our local big lake/pond, its been great. Im kind of glad the weathers cooled down a bit now as i havent been able to use my laptop, the fans still on the blink and it gets too hot so the 30' weather would have killed it off.

New addition to my fish tank, a pair of Kuhli Loaches, there so cute! they never come out though which is annoying, we're going to get a few more when we get back from out hols.



 Nothing like buying a classic dvd for a fiver, then thinking to yourself, what the hell did our parents do to us as children... seriously why so many songs?!
(Also not the cheesy chips and pitta from the kebab shop in the background, YUMMMMERS)

So far its been a good summer, but there is more to come im sure, we havent even been to the beach yet!

 

 

Bourjois Bronzing BB cream 8 in 1 Review!

So if you follow me on Instagram you may have seen i had a little splurge in Boots...


I really wanted to get the Bourjois Bronzer, which is a huge pot of bronzing goodness...and on offer for £5.99 at the moment.. BUT it was way to shimmery for me, so i passed up the bargain, and decided to get the BB Bronzing cream 8-1 instead.

It says that it.... Evens skin tone, Sheer tint, boots radiance, 16 Hour moisterisation, smooths skin, prolongs tan, SPF 15, and finally has a refreshing sensation.

Let me show you a little bit of how it applies..

L: Plastic bottle with Pump application, R1, one pump, R2, lightly rubbed in, R3, Blended completely.
 
And so you can see what it actually looks like on the face...


So the big mug shot on the left is me Pre-make up!
Then you have the scary dark cream on the face... this is themoment of O-M-G this is like the wrong coloured foundation, what have i done... Then once blended and with compulsary pout its done!


From a distance it gives a nice glow to my skin, and matches it without looking too dark.


As you can see from this close up the BB bronzer is still sheer enough to see my natural skin, i.e freckles, moles etc it doesnt mask my skin it just enhances it. 

I really like this and im glad i bought it instead of the bronzing powder. This BB Bronzing cream is on offer in boots at the moment for £6.99.

10/10 from me! 

Let me know if you try it out too. 
 

Summer Party 2012

Every year my company puts on an event for us all (2 of the offices in the group get to go together)

This year they put on a Summer Party, everyone gets a +1 and you can bring your children, dog or both.. 

I took my cousin Steph and the Twins along as Mike was working, the weather was crazy that day, seriously windy but sunny...

Ice cream van, Booze tent, BBQ, Bouncy castles
Hook-a-duck
Cocanut Shy ... i look like a right wierdo..
Dunk tank... didnt see any managers in there lol

BBQ food yum!

Twins and there winnings...
Yummy Mummy Steph! ♥
Babies x 2 ♥♥
It was a really nice couple of hours out socialising and meeting up with collegues seeing them in a different enviroment with their partners, husbands, wifes, kids etc... And it was even better to spend quality time with Steph as we dont get it often.
