Faithful Friday: How Great

Hello My Faithful Friday Friends! I hope you've all had a good week. I am ready for the weekend! Today we will be talking about how great our God is. How many songs is that phrase in? I bet you can name a few. The other day I was driving into work listening to K-LOVE and 'How Great Is Our God" came on. I'm sure you all know that song. You're probably singing it right now, aren't you? haha! I am! Anyway, I started thinking about that... How great is our God? How great is it that He is OURS? How great is is that He loves us?

Yes, my friends, the long awaited, dream come true, big girls play room is complete! I am so happy with the way it turned out and will be doing a room tour soon.  Now, on to the reason you're here... My Glowing Skin "Minimal" Makeup. The reason for the "minimal" part of this is because I am still applying a full face of makeup but it doesn't look like it. I like this look when I am running errands and don't want to get dressed up all cute to go out. You all know how much I love my basic white girl uniform. Haha! So put that sweatshirt, leggings, and Uggs on, girlfriend and let's get "minimal"! This is the look I am showing you today. The star of this show is our gorgeous glowing skin.  (Take a moment to appreciate that highlight)  I prepped my skin with this hydrating primer. I definitely do ...
