Easter Weekend in Boise

We had an amazing fun-filled Easter weekend in Boise! Saturday morning my niece Kenzie got asked to prom so we spent most of the day lookin for dresses and found 2 amazing options for great deals! Then the rest of the day/night was spent ring shopping with my brother Trevor and his adorable gf Kaitlin! We were super sneaky and bought the AMAZING ring without her knowing. Sunday was full of church-going, amazing weather, Easter egg hunting, basketball playing, and lots of eating! Then Sunday night me and Tiff were super sneaky again and hid the ring for Trev in a birds nest inside of an Easter egg and then hid ourselves so we could video/watch ;) the engagement! It was so amazing (but quite stressful trying to pull everything off)! It was such a fun weekend. I love my family and love my Savior for making it possible for me to be with them forever. I know that my Redeemer lives!

Hair!

As you all know (I'm assuming you all know..) I am a certified cosmetologist.
I do hair out of my kitchen. No, it's nothing glamorous and I have to wash out your color in my bath tub..but I enjoy it and we sure do have a lot of fun! And it's cheap and you can bring your kids :)
I've finally posted my official prices on my sidebar  >>>>
Because most of my clientele is family, these are prices for everyone.
Trust me, this is the LOWEST I can go! {Especially on color}
 I'm hardly makin' anything here, folks :)
Email me at lindsaymoyes@hotmail.com for further info and to schedule an appointment.

Fashion Star

So there is this blog, Pink Peonies, that has become super popular. It is a super cute (super skinny) LDS girl that is a newlywed and blogs about the adorable outfits she wears everyday. I LOVE her style and enjoy reading the blog...except for that fact that I could NEVER afford her clothes! (Don't even get me started on how I don't understand how a "married student" can afford them either...still has daddy's credit card? ;)  Anyways, she did a post a little while ago and the second I saw it I said, "Hey! I have that exact outfit!" And then I realized, my outfit was a SMALL fraction of the cost of hers. So I thought I'd do a little comparison :)
Warning: We took my pictures in maybe 2 seconds as we were already late rushing out the door, and the sun was shooting me in the face...so bear with me.

Pink Peonies outfit: Top- $90 from J.Crew, Tee- $40 from J.Crew, Jeans- $190 Paige Denim, Shoes- $228 J.Crew, Watch- $250 Michael Kors, Necklace- $60 J.Crew, Wrist Jewels- at least $100 from J.Crew, Juicy Couture and Forever 21, Bag- $575 Tory Burch
Outfit total: about $1,533

My outfit: Top- $15 Old Navy, Tee- $10 Old Navy, Jeans- $20 Gap clearance, Shoes- $15 TJ Maxx clearance, Watch- $30 Macy's, Necklace- $15 American Eagle, Wrist Jewels- $6 Forever 21, and I have a similar bag but forgot it in the picture- $10 from Plato's Closet
Outfit total: about $121



THAT IS A $1,412 DIFFERENCE!!!
(I did guesstimate some of the prices because they are no longer available or I forgot exactly how much I paid..but it's pretty darn close)
So the moral of the story, you do NOT have to break the bank for new, cute clothes! My sister's and I LOVE to shop, and we LOVE a good bargain even more! I very rarely pay full price for anything. Almost everything will eventually go on clearance, or a coupon will show up somewhere!
I strongly believe in retail therapy, but not blowing all your money on it!
Please do not get me wrong, I love her blog..and to be honest, if I had the money I probably would buy some more of her higher quality items (I'm sure her J.Crew shirts don't shrink like crazy, and don't get holes in them like my Old Navy ones do..) But I'd just rather save my money for something better...like a house! (Okay, I'll settle for food...)

P.S. How do you feel about my hair these days? I've grown out my roots for the "ombre" look that all the celebs are doing these days....yay or nay?

"Let's Play Some Basketball"

Brandon has been playing on 3 basketball teams and 1 volleyball team the past couple of months. It's been crazy, and I will be glad to have my husband back :)
Here are some pics from last night's Jerome City League championship.
(Sorry for the crappy pictures, the lighting was weird...and my camera is going downhill fast)
 Brian Williams and Brandon
Silly boys



 Playing B-ball with Grandpa. This boy is hard to contain in the stands! All he wants to do is "shoot ball!!"

 Back to back champs!
