Hey guys! So I'm just too excited because this is my what I got for xmas post! :) yaaaaay! So yes- heres what I got for christmas.

***Everything shown in this post I am grateful for and I love all of it. I do not show things I do not want. I'm so thankful to all my friends and family for getting me such wonderful gifts. Thanks!***
Edit 3/4/14: If some of you notice that some pictures are missing from the original post, thats because they are. I deleted the pictures of items I returned after christmas, and I'm getting to it now because I was looking at this post and saw that I didn't have some of these gifts anymore. I don't want to show you guys items i didn't end up keeping, because they aren't really actual gifts.

Routines: RETAINER

This post will be about... dun dun dunnnnnn RETAINER CARE! So just how often i clean and how i clean, and ya!

So i brush my retainer every morning and night. 

I soak it in water about 2 times a day. When I'm eating breakfast, and when I'm flossing and brushing at night.

As for deep cleaning- Retainer brite is what I use. It deep cleans. You can use denture tablets too- I heard they work they same on retainers.

Nov 2013 FAVS

Happy thanksgiving everyone! :)
Hope yall are eating alot of food and spending time with family! Hope you had a good black friday too!
The holidays are great, and just to change things up a bit, this fave post is gonna be a picture faves!
Enjoy, Liz

THIS LOOK = LIFE

That eye look on Katniss was simply STUNNING. 

Jennifer Lawrence really is a beautiful woman, and she really knows how to play the part of Katniss. 

They couldn't have picked a better actress. 

I do recommend that all of you see Catching Fire, even if you aren't Hunger Games fans. 

It truly is amazing and I started out as a not-so-big-fan myself, but honestly this movie changed it. 

My only fave was really everything Hunger Games, even though it just came out. 

More things I liked:

• Scarves
• Lightweight foundation
• Fleece Jackets
• Light Down Jackets
• Fuzzy Socks
