Sulfur Treatment


I'm about to show you a really hot picture of myself lol


ready???



Told you...

Sorry world; this girls' married lol.

Okay, but in all seriousness let me tell you why I'm showing you this.

I got a free sample of Olay PROxclear

SULFUR ACNE TREATMENT.

Nothing says exciting like the idea of burning the outer layer of skin off your face.

I also don't really have acne, but tonight I felt that undeniable pain in the left side of my chin...you know the one. Where you know what's coming and it's going to be a rough rest of your week trying to cover him.

So, SAMPLE TIME!! :)

I wanted to show you the picture so you knew I wasn't bluffing.

I really rubbed burning sulfur on my face.

Here's the thing...it didn't hurt!!

However, it did smell like my face would burst into flames any moment but that would just make me more like Katniss right!?!?!


AMBER = THE GIRL WHO'S FACE WAS ON FIRE :) 

(I'm so sorry because I really should stop talking about The Hunger Games, but we're like 10 days from opening night so you'll have to bear with me a bit longer I'm afraid...)

Okay, so you may notice Dave's half face in the 1st picture - That's because we were both dying to know if this really worked. This treatment claimed it would pull all acne to the surface within 10 minutes but how many times do you read that???

Okay, so we waited...and waited...and BAM. Rinse time!

Oh boy, I can just feel the excitement and tension building on the other side of the this computer screen!! (haha...just kidding) ;)

Results = Grosseness

Yep, it worked.

Not even kidding.

And no, don't worry, I didn't take a picture of that because seriously who wants to see that??

But, even Dave was like, "HOLY COW!"

I'm telling you all...it was a magical moment. :)

Okay, but in all seriousness, I just had to share this with anyone who looks for medication like this because it was too exciting not too...right!?!?

So that's the end of my kindof weird TMI post, but trust me, you'll all thank me next time you get one of those little guys you just need to go away immediately!!! :)

Christopher Robin & Chicken Nuggets

Clara's two favorite things.

She likes him.


And she likes these.


(And yes, McDonald's is her preferred place to get the nuggets Erin lol ;) )

And I have no idea if this post will at all be entertaining to anyone but me and Dave, however I do not want to forget this phase in her sweet little life so I'm writing about it. :)

This all started because Grandma got her a sweet car...


which she prefers to ride pantless in apparently lol...

I think somehow this gift mentally shifted her into 16 yr old gear.

I swear to you!

She took off in that thing the first time it was in our driveway with her friend Sadie and informed us all she was going shopping lol!

So, yes...I believe that's how it began.

She then received another gift shortly after from Papa and Grandma (She's the only grandchild on both sides and I can see you all smiling and nodding your heads with understanding now. She's a wee bit spoiled....) :)

Anyways...Winnie the pooh was given and of course it wasn't an instant hit (she was still recovering from Mufasa's death by "Scarf"...I haven't figured out why but that is what she calls him...the noun also used to describe women's outerwear?? :)



So...about 3 months pass and we decide to give "Winnie-The-Pooh" another try. This time...this time she fell in love.

I mean the crush of all crushes.

She sings the "Winnie-The-Pooh" theme song no less than 25 times a day.

She reads books to her babies and all you will hear her say is "Chrisower Wobin eating Chickin Nuggets" over and over (because that's her other love of course)

And, a couple nights ago we went into the Chic-fil-A playplace and there were four boys climbing up the slide; she literally yelled..."CHRISOWER WOBINS!"

So yes, you can see we will actually need to have that conversation with her...that not all boys are named Christopher Robin.

That darn barbie mustang has opened up a little part of her heart I wasn't prepared to deal with..at least not until she hit 16, and as Dave swears will not acknowledge until she's 40.

However...as it is 9:48 which is WAY past my bed time, I'm going to close for now, but I will promise to fill you all in about the chicken nuggets in the next post.

Que music: Deep in the hundred acre woods....:)

The Day I Couldn't Tell If I Was....

Obsessed with "The Hunger Games"....

Thought I was in "The Hunger Games"....

Or actually believed myself to have morphed into "Katniss."

(I would probably encourage anyone who has no idea about this book to stop reading now because I promise it will make no sense..just an FYI for you)

Everyone told me to read this darn book but me, being completely stubborn, thought I would rise above the "hype."



I've never been one to do that but for some reason I thought that....this time...this book...would not make me all crazy-like for itself and the charachters.

I was probably the first person in line for the Twilight book, and then the movies and now own the whole lot of them. In fact, Dave's only competition to date has been Edward Cullen. But I only like him in vampire form so Dave know's he's safe. :) haha..anyways...

Okay, so you see my resolve to try and not read these books.

But then my sister...my darn cutie patutie sister..

(oh yes, and you didn't think I'd pass up an opportunity to showcase my cutie patutie daughter too did you? :))

...sent me these books for my birthday!!!

AGHHH!

It's like she's literally trying to kill me!!!

Amber's thoughts: Can I really afford to fall in love with Peeta and Gale too after all Dave's been through with Edward?




Amber's thoughts: No.No I can't. And not to mention the heartache of going through everything with the charachters and the time suck of it all and the fact I'm 29 now and supposed to be maturing with age in wisdom and stature and....!?!?

Amber's thoughts. BUT NOW MY SISTER HAS GONE AND DONE IT BECAUE I'M PHYSICALLY HOLDING THE BOOK!!

So. Let's all guess the end of this.

I'll give you a hint.

 I am 2 books in and dreaming about firebombs and being hungry and trying to survive and save my family all the while trying not toget eaten by the wolves that look like people.

I should warn Dave that if me and Clara are completely dressed in camoflauge when he gets home from work tonight to not be alarmed....

We'll simply be Katniss...

and Katniss 2 (because I"m not sure how else Clara could fit into the book) :)


Yep...There we are...The Girl Tributes

We do this for our families survival people.

;)
