Before/After Blog Hop

It's that time again to head over to Pixel Perfect and vote for your favorite edit of the week. I love this picture of Miss Kayla Arlene having some summer fun!

Warmed up the colors a bit and here it is:
I use a Sony alpha 350 and Lightroom 2 editing software


Beauty Hurts & what I will be up to this summer!

Well tomorrow night I will be dropping my sweet little baby (ehem, or nearly 5-year-old) Kayla off for her first ever Dance Recital Dress Rehearsal. She will be full out dressed and makeup and I can't even stay and watch.....NO PARENTS ALLOWED! She is so excited I can not even tell you. She is required to have curls and makeup. Today I ran into Walgreen's and got some rollers to attempt curly hair. She was very patient and I felt like a pageant Mom rolling her fine little hair into the curlers. We left them in for about an hour and it came out GREAT! Ok, I did not get a picture of the actual curls....I am saving that for the full costume. I am not very happy about the no video or picture taking rule for the recital, but they will have a photographer and they are professionally video taping, for a fee of $25 to see my angel dance for 1 min 38sec. You know I will buy the stupid thing, how could I resist. Don't worry, I'm sure to get plenty of pictures of her all decked out:)

Just to give you all a little update on what I will be up to this summer: I am going to take an online class! I have never done anything like this before, and I am so excited. I can't wait to head to the craft store sometime this weekend and get all my supplies for this super cool Summer Camp

This is going to be such a fun project. I LOVE LOVE LOVE anything handmade and this will be a chance to let my own creativity flow. Learning new things is so much fun! I hope everyone is having a great summer!
XOXO, NIK

This is GROSS.

Please take the time to read this blog: Unnecessary Drama

Now, I love Urban Outfitters just a much as the next girl, but this is so disgusting. I read this blog the other day (which I enjoy reading) and this is what I see. I am horrified at this image to girls. I have two little girls and I would just die if I saw someone wearing this! Please read. GROSS-O-LA!
