Just for Fun

Some ladies on a Christian message board to which I belong decided to take some before and after pictures to show how they look when they get up in the morning to when their "beauty routine" is complete.


Being the wife of deployed Army soldier and mother of a 10 month old does not lend a lot of time for taking care of myself. I'm lucky to get a shower before his afternoon nap some days. But now, I think it is time to start taking a little mommy time each day so I an start feeling a tad better about myself. Not to mention, my super wonderful husband and I are going to have a skype date later this morning. Looking nice for him couldn't hurt either.


I was not brave enough to do a "I just rolled out of bed" picture, so here I am after my shower:

I'm apparently different than most of those ladies so far because I do my hair first. This is after my hair is dried and my eyebrows have been tamed:

And finally, here I am after a little bit of makeup. Really, I don't do much. A little bit of foundation primer, copper eyeliner, mascara, highlighter under the brow and in the crook of my eye and lip gloss.

And, here I am! Hope Ray likes it. Then again, he is a man so probably won't even notice ;-) But our cyber date will be fun, regardless.
