After a long year of planning, weeks of late nights, bottles and bottles of spray paint and all the excitement of a 6 year old visiting Disneyland for the first time, SNAP finally happened!

What an honor to be apart of this amazing Team! Tauni, our fearless leader created a rock star team where everyone’s talents shined! So happy to have been a small part of it!

I had the fun assignment of being a SNAP! team greeter! Mandi and I got to see all your happy faces when you first showed up! Such a treat! Ashleigh was a fun gal to meet and her “business card” was the most adorable and detailed cookie with the SNAP logo! You have to check out her blog! Cookie utopia!

Can we just start by talking about the amazing decor! SNAP was styled and branded by the one and only Lara of Less Cake more Frosting and Announced Design! She had a vision and it was executed perfectly! The hanging mobiles and center pieces were so whimsical and fun! Thanks Heartfelt Creations for a discount on the paper!

Of course SNAP!  was all about connecting with amazing friends and new ones!

Melissa of The Polkadot Chair, was such a thrill to meet! Her’s was one of the very first blog I EVER read so to finally meet her in person was a SNAP highlight! The cure sisters and Traci were so fun to talk to and learn more about! Traci, I must see your jewelry in person! You should sell next year at SNAP!

Becky of Whippy Cakes was a doll, understatement of the year! I wanted to eat up her little and everyone could not get enough of my “Whippy for Africa” earrings! Kim=LOVE. I love my R-House girls!All I need to say is “parking lot” and I’m in a happy place with Kim! Cindy and her daughter were too much fun!

One of the absolute best parts of SNAP was being able to hang out with my bestie and Sister-in-law Stephanie! this chick is amazing! I love her with all my heart! Thanks for the memories Steph and I’m sorry you had to see my “boobs” for like the 100th time!

I am a few weeks into using my Système 41 skin care line and have so much to tell you! I use my products every day and have come to love  a few things about them!

So far the Gentle Purifying Cleanser is my favorite! It’s creamier then anything I’ve ever used! It feels wonderful on my face and I look forward to using it morning and night!

The day cream sort of threw me off at first. It’s thicker then I’m used to and takes longer to adsorb but I will say that the more I have used it the more my skin has adjusted and it seems to be absorbing faster now!

I also love the Rejuvenating Masque. I keep it in the shower and use it about twice a week. It’s grainy and very exfoliating. I don’t leave it on long, I simply rub it on my face and message for a few minutes then rinse.

I’m looking forward to seeing if I have big skin changes after my 8 week trial is over.So far I am just enjoying the great spa scent and fresh feeling I get after using the products!
