Smokey Eye Make-Up Tutorial by Natalie...



     Hey ya'll!  I love putting on eyeshadow, and it is the funnest part of doing my makeup.  My favorite eyeshadow look is the Smokey Eye.  I usually use the colors black, silver, and white, so it can be a pretty easy process.  I just wanted to make a video to show that getting the smokey eye look can be fun and easy while taking less than 5 minutes.  A few little tips and EXTRA Fun tricks are also included in the video, so I hope this helps anyone in achieving the Smokey Eye!

Simple things



I (Nic) have had some time during the past week or so to relax. I am still playing on weekends and some weekdays but I still managed to get some time to just sit in the front yard and enjoy the sunlight anyways.
My chickens are all grown up now (ha that sounds so dumb) and I get to enjoy gathering eggs and trying to raise more little chicks. It is just neat to see God's creation. I think its so cool how chickens know that they are supposed to climb into a square box and lay their eggs. They can't understand English so that haven't heard anyone tell them to do that. They could lay their eggs anywhere but they automatically know the right certain spot is THE spot to lay their eggs. Maybe I'm easily amazed, but I don't care, that's cool.  God wired that into them. God put it in their DNA. I think he did a similar thing to us. He put it in our DNA to be happy in the sunlight, in nature, so that we would know that there is someone greater than us. So we would ask questions about creation and know in our hearts that there is a greater being that could have only designed everything to work together so well. Just think, the most complicated thing that we can make is still not as impressive as making a chicken from nothing. A skyscraper or rocket ship is a lot of metal (that God created) and impressive electronics, but humans still have not managed to make something so impressive as a chicken. Just think about what we would do without chickens!! -Nic
