Sister Sleepover?

 

The weeks seem to be going by so quick now, who would have thought that we are just 3 months away from Christmas now? Well you would have thought right if you did because we are haha! Anyway.. a few weeks ago I had my step sister Christine/Chrissy stay over for the weekend, we didn't do much just had a little catch up and sat around in our pyjamas watching girly films! I hadn't seen her for a while which was starting to bug me! She's 16 now.. which I cant get my head around. Going back to the 'how fast the weeks are going by' well weeks.. turned into months and then a year, I don't think I had seen her in over a year and as I've said before I want to really try and find the time for the people I love as life is too short!

Ok the picture at the top of the page wasn't from the weekend Christine stayed it was from 2010! 4 whole years ago.. she hasn't changed much. I used to love the weekends id go to my dads she would be my little 'model'  I would practice doing her hair ( I was at college around that time) we did a bit of that when she stayed too. The picture below is from 2010 also..

This is us today!

(Well the other weekend)

I wasn't the only one pleased to have her stay that's for sure! Tilly (my dog) ended up sleeping by her feet all night on the sofa!

Christine is a natural beauty and doesn't really wear makeup or do her hair. She asked me if I would do her makeup, I just put a tiny bit of concealer and powder on for her and just mascara.. that was it, she was happy with that.  I don't typically wear a lot of makeup myself anymore unless I know I am going somewhere I want to look like I 've made more of an effort for!

 Chrissy had never plucked her eyebrows or done anything to them, I am a little obsessed with eyebrows at the moment (weirdo I know), I wanted to do hers for her, she hated it so we didn't get very far, I didn't want to do it if she really didn't like it.. we got a few laughs out of it though!

Below is just a few more pictures from when she stayed. No doubt she will stay again soon and we might do something more interesting.. ill update you when this happens!

A day with family.

 

So yesterday I went to southend with my mum and dad, we had a really nice chilled day and ended up walking along the pier, I didn't know it was over a mile long haha silly me! Its really important to spend time with your family, especially if you no longer live with them. As you know my mum and dad aren't together anymore but we all get along very well and my dad comes down every Friday to see me and my brother at my mums. I love that we can go out together like this because I know not everyone whos parents aren't together anymore get to expierence this, I did take a few pictures so I will put them below if anyone is interested in seeing some.

 Haha this picture below makes me laugh, slightly wind swept and not really ready for the picture!

We did walk the pier and got the little train on the way back as we were in abit of a rush near the end as I had to be back for work, the picture above on the right was on the train, I am not going to lie I did feel a little bit freaked out it was a bit of a bumpy ride! The picture on the left is me and my mum we were just casually walking along and I thought why not do a selfie with her.


We of course walked round the shops and I went into Pandora, I fell in love with this ring and took a picture as my 21st birthday is coming up and my dad said he would get it for me and to send him the picture, so I thought I would share it all with you too.

I'd just like to add its good to go out with no makeup on sometimes. I did this day and didn't even think about it. I know when I was younger I never used to do it and I would feel really insecure but nobody cares what you look like, except for you.
