I was paired up with Angela, who hails from Montana. She's a former Ag teacher, so it was awesome talking to someone that "got" my job. We spent quite a bit of time "talking shop" and commiserating on the irritations that is public education. If you have read my previous beauty swap post, or know me at all, then you know I don't wear makeup that often, but own a ton of it. Not exaggerating....I own a ton of makeup. I'm a direct sales junkie and since many of my friends are always selling something, I'm usually buying because I'm a firm believer in supporting people. I guess I love knowing that I have the option to wear something on my face if I want to....and I also like having a lot of options.....
I can't divulge in what I sent Angela, because its supposed to arrive in Montana tomorrow, and I wanted to write this post while I was still thinking about it and had some time to do so.....because, unlike makeup, I don't have much time to myself. If Angela does a blog post about what I sent her, I'll get a link up so you can check it out!
So here's what I received:
Angela also has a printing business, The Rural Rose, you can check out her awesome designs on her Facebook page and Instagram! She made the kids some awesome "Future FFA Member" t-shirts, but I need to take a picture of the shirts without my children in them.....which I haven't done yet. I promised my mom I would never post pictures of my kids on my blog...so you're welcome Mom.... BUT, they are posted on the Rural Rose Instagram page, so check them out! My kids were so excited to get them!
This was once again, so much fun, and Angela and I chat regularly via Facebook....because we're basically social media best friends now....am I allowed to say that? Is it too soon to declare online best friend-ship? Anyway, you don't have to be a blogger to participate in the beauty swap! Follow Crystal Cattle on her blog or Facebook and join in on the next swap!
