15 Week Challenge........Part One, Week Six

Hello there....I have been slacking on the posts....well the guts of the posts anyhow! I am sorry. The kids have got me all up in a bind, so much with school and wanting to play outside, and then all the stuff that needs to be done inside is just outrageous! Mom's/wife's shouldn't have to tackle everything! I need to make a chart....with who gets what chore...or else I am going to go insane...

I need to decide on what my chart will include and who will do what and when and then get a big poster board, write it all out and then have it laminated, I want to have that up by Saturday! So anyone out there have any ideas on who to delegate which chores to....you know the basics....pick up clothes, put away clothes, clean toilets, mop floors, vacuum, etc....Dishes after dinner....what are the most important things that I need the kids/husband to help with?  My kids are 8.5, 6.5, 4 and almost 1!

This weeks challenge was Violet. I found this purple a couple months back at the dollar tree. It is very very purple! Goes on smooth, no problems, very opaque, creme finish. Love this color, it doesn't have a name...You can see a bottle shot here. I wanted something extra for this Mani, so I added some sparkle to my ring finger, China Glaze Techno.

Pink Wednesday, just barely....

I keep seeing these really cute fruit designs floating around the nail world. So what better than watermelon, perfect for summer, right? I thought about mixing fruit, I saw a really cool Kiwi design that I want to try also! But I stuck with one fruit....

Watermelon! Have you ever heard that song, Watermelon Crawl by Tracy Byrd?

My Son, Hunter, he is 8 months old, he does the watermelon crawl.....or the army crawl, it is so cute! He is so speedy!

Anyways on to the nails! I used NYC in Midtown for the base color, then added a tip of Finger Paints Go Van Gogh, then added a stripe of LA Colors in a green/gold color. Then added the seeds-I used Wet N Wilds Black creme and a dotting tool.

So whatchya think?

Pink Wednesday...its late but I made it, lol

I wore China Glaze I wanna Lei Ya as a base, and stamped it with an LA colors no name dark pink/mauve color using BM plate 215 - snake skin.
The polishes went on nicely, the LA colors is a great stamping polish!
Unfortunately my pictures suck this time, I'm not quite sure why, I'm still learning my new camera and I am getting frustrated with it! I am only posting one picture....Well two cause I wanted to show you what a lighter can do to your nail if your not careful while lighting candles!

see, be careful when lighting candles, lol!

Oh and here is a random picture of my youngest, Hunter....

Pink Wednesday....again...

So Originally I thought I wasn't going to have time to do my nails, But I found time between vacuuming and dusting, lol.
So here is my FIRST Pink Wednesday Post.
I used my Elf that I got from Big Lots. Its a pretty color and it went on farely well, a little gooey, but manageable if you can do it fast...
It has a slight peachy undertone, which is nice...
I will wear it again.
