Optimistic Monday

June 17, 2013

Oh my, I’ve been terrible with my blog this past week.  If you didn’t already know, I was on vacation with my family in London and Scotland.  My teenage son was on the US Junior National Golf Team representing the USA vs the Scottish Junior National Team.  The USA won!!  That’s pretty darn good to beat the Scottish on their home turf.  They played at some of the oldest and most beautiful courses in Scotland.  It was a once in a lifetime experience that he’ll remember forever.
I will do a separate blog post on my wonderful vacation later this week.

I’ve learned that fine lines and dry skin don’t ha I’ve learned that fine lines and dry skin don’t have to be part of my everyday look. #OlayPartner 

I’ve been using the Olay Micro-Sculpting Cream, and I love how hydrated, smooth and refreshed my skin looks and feels. Our skin changes as we age and keeping it moisturized with effective ingredients is one of the simplest ways I keep mine looking firmer, smoother, healthier and more radiant at 61 years old.

The @olay Micro-Sculpting Cream has triple collagen peptides, niacinamide and pro-vitamin B5 to support younger looking skin.

If you’re looking for dramatic results without taking drastic measures, then this is a moisturizer you will be impressed with. It layers beautifully under makeup and delivers lasting hydration.

Comment your skincare goals and save this reel for your next beauty shopping trip.♥️

A great lip color has a way of pulling my whole look together in seconds, and these favorites have definitely earned a permanent spot in my makeup bag.

If you’re looking for the best lipsticks for women over 50, that include long-lasting lipstick, hydrating lip products, or everyday favorites, I hope this gives you a few new ideas to try!

Now I have to know…👇

Another incredible family reunion is in the books. Another incredible family reunion is in the books. Somehow I think it felt a little extra special this year.♥️

This was year number 46 for my husband’s annual family reunion and golf tournament in Michigan. We’re already looking forward to next year.🥰
If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few d If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few days, I’m in Michigan for our annual family reunion. And I must say, the weather here has been in the 70’s during the day which makes me not miss the heat wave back at home in Texas one bit.

Running quick errands on a hot day calls for a loose fitting dress and comfortable sneakers.
