Five on Friday

It's been one of those weeks around here. 

We had a hole in our patio that needed to be repaired. Well, it's been raining a lot in the mornings here so each day that I arranged to be home for a 6-8 hour stretch the repair guy would have to cancel on me last minute. We literally had to reschedule 6 days. They were finally able to come on Wednesday afternoon (day 1 or the 2 day repair)...

....Well, all of the jack hammering on our patio caused the rod in my freshly organized closet to come crashing down. Not a fun process, and poor Roscoe was in his kennel at the time underneath all of those clothes, totally unharmed (thanks to a strong metal kennel) but scared out of his mind! And now we wait for another repair team to come out.

I was able to sneak in a hair appointment in this week and my hair dresser totally nailed the color. I'm always obsessed with Kristen Taekman's hair so I gave my hairdresser the instagram images as inspiration and 3 hours later it was pretty damn close!

I've never worn foundation or concealer, but my skin has taken a hit these last few months, so my girlfriend Laura - my makeup guru - did the research for me and recommended Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue. I'm obsessed (I wear a level 4 if you decide to buy it too). It goes on like face lotion but it's really light, leaves a little bit of a dewy look, totally brightens and evens, and doesn't feel like I have makeup on my face at all. I've even stopped using my bronzer because I really don't need it with this product. I hate spending money on makeup, but this is something that I will not allow to run out! Highly recommended!

This weekend we are pretty packed in! We are celebrating our friends MBA graduation from UCLA tonight, working with a trainer to get Roscoe ready for baby, registering at Pottery Barn Kids and Buy Buy Baby, celebrating a girlfriends birthday AND getting ready for a friend's visit and my trip to Nashville next week! It should be a good one!
