September Slumber Soiree.

Recently, I had the fabulous opportunity to sneak away to an incredible blogger overnighter.  It was the FIRST time I had left the kids overnight with just Kevin.  I was nervous, to say the least, fearing I would be lost thinking about the kids all weekend but I was so grateful I could turn off my mommy brain for 24 hours and turn on my PARTY GIRL Brain.
My lovely friend Aubrey hosted such a great event.

Her hard work paid off and a handful of blogging ladies were able to have a great time. We escaped to the gorgeous mountain town of Oakley which is such a pretty place to get away.
We enjoyed a night of round table discussions, delicious meals, a makeup demonstration by the amazing Jen of Classy Cozmetics, Dirty Dr. Peppers and tons of treats, nail painting and girl talk until 5AM (insert big eye expression). In the morning we had some of the yummiest waffles for breakfast hosted by Flippin Waffles and another round table discussion.

We had a photo shoot with Agnes & Dora.

I may not have taken my leggings off the rest of the weekend. 

So COMFORTABLE and stylish. 

Jen did an eyebrow makeover on me.

After.

It's a MIRACLE. I have EYEBROWS

 I won the Flippin Waffle giveaway. Hooray for a waffle party! 

Each of us received some incredible swag thanks to some AWESOME sponsors. I am always amazed what great people support the blogging world.  I loved the FABULOUS leggings from Agnes & Dora, the yummy Caramels from JulieAnnes Caramels and awesome bath bombs from Starflower SkinCare.

It was such a wonderful getaway. I am so blessed to have some fabulous friends in my life.  Thanks again Aubrey for a MUCH NEEDED overnighter. Can't wait for a repeat soon.

Amara Spa's Red Carpet Event.

Remember how I LOVE being a blogger because it comes with wonderful perks?! Well, one of those perks is getting to attend FABULOUS events with my favorite ladies.

One such event took place in July at Amara Day Spa/Salon/Boutique in Orem. It was a Red Carpet Affair to Remember.

I always love an excuse to get out for some mommy time and nothing beats mommy time filled with fashion, food, friends and pampering! 

Amara is beautiful. The unique Spa/Salon/Boutique really gives you the feeling that it's your one stop shop! 
The night of the event was a blast. My favorite hotspot, Sodalicious, sponsored a drink bar for Dirty Drinks all around.

My FAVORITE restaurant The Wild Zucchini Grill sponsored the most delicious appetizers!  

(Seriously some of the BEST food in Utah which is saying a lot from a girl who has traveled the world and misses California food)
There were fabulous giveaways including Botox, Hair Extensions, a Blow Out and Massages.

Yes, this is me TRYING to "twerk" to win some EyeLash Extensions.  I didn't win.
And of course there was pampering. I was lucky enough to have my eyebrows waxed by the BEAUTIFUL Ashlee and then makeup reapplied by Jocelyn.

At the end of the night I even got to sneak in some foot therapy.  It was one of my favorite events I have been to all year.
Thanks so much to the beautiful staff at Amara and Jade Baird for hosting. I will absolutely be returning soon for some shopping and pampering! 

Ladies, and even Gents, head to Amara for your beauty/medical spa needs. Christmas may still be 4 months away but I know the place that I'll be asking for a gift certificate to.
