Day at the Farm

Hiiiiii!

Every one has certain things that make them happy and can brighten their day. One of mine is animals. Being around animals always puts a smile on my face, I just love them so much! A few days ago, Emily and I went to Windreach Farm for a few hours to see all the animals. There were cows and goats and bunnies and guinea pigs and alpacas and sheep and just soooo many cute animals!! I had such a lovely day, and took A LOT  of pictures so I thought I would share some of them. :)

This little lamb was only a few weeks old

 This is Nutmeg (the little guy) and her mom Cinnamon.Cinnamon  was actually missing the bottom part of her front left leg because of a coyote, but she was still so feisty. I really liked these two :)

A smile from nutmeg! :)

The grey bunny's hair do was pretty cool:P

This is Annabelle and her mom

 she really must have liked that door

Ben the alpaca, he was so sweet! <3

This is Abe, who is deaf, so Ben helps him out which is adorable

 In the barn there were two baby lambs who weren't even a day old yet... ohh my goodness my heart just melted!! They were soooo incredibly adorable, and super soft.

I loved watching them attempt to walk

Just look how small and precious they are!!! <3

 We honestly went to see those baby lambs numerous times during our visit and I have an excessive amount of pictures of them but they were just so cute!!!! :P

Em with some turkeys and chickens

this guy was so soft :)

 

We also got to go on a hay ride through the cow pastures and got to meet a cow called Cinnamon sticks who was also one of my favourites. He honestly acted like a dog and was just a big suck!! Sadly we didn't get a chance to go to the horse stables as they were busy there but there's always next time!!

We then went home and had a quick lunch, then went off to the greenhouse to see some beautiful flowers

It was such a lovely day and I just felt amazingly happy... I can't even explain it. I apologize for the long post but I really wanted to share all the cute animal pictures!! :P I hope you all have a wonderful day, and go do something that makes you happy :)

January Favourites

Hiiii! :)

I cannot believe January is over, it went by ridiculously fast. Everything is moving so quickly with school and hockey and everything else that's going on. But I figured that since it is the end of the month, it would be appropriate to do a January favourites (plus I haven't done a monthly favourites in a while :P) So here we go....


My first favourte would have to be the Naked 1 palette. I have been using this a lot and it is just so beautiful. The only colour that I'm not too fond of is sidecar since there is a lot of glitter fallout (It makes me look like a disco ball), but the whole palette is just marvelous. The eyeshadows are so pigmented and beautiful and I am very happy with this. I really want to purchase the naked 3 palette as well :)

I have also been loving this Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer. It is a matte bronzer and ohhh my goodness it smells like chocolate!! I am 100% a chocolate fanatic, so this product is just the bees knees (ahaha):P  I basically wear this everyday and it doesn't look muddy at all. I absolutely love it!

I have also really gotten into the Revlon lip butters. I kind of put off trying these because I had tried similar products that were said to be like these that I did not get on with. Finally I decided to try them and they are amazing!I have berry smoothie, which is a really pretty pink colour with some glitter in it, and pink truffle, which is a gorgeous nude colour (and I find it had a lot less glitter/shimmer). They feel like a lip balm, but the colour pay off is a lot better than a tinted lip balm. I have been using these a lot, even if i'm not putting makeup on.

I have also been obsessed with Essie's nail polish "Devil's advocate". In the winter months I love using darker colours on my nails and this one is so gorgeous! I find when my skin is paler, these darker colours look really nice. I realize it looks black here, but it is actually a very very dark purple colour.The colour is hard to decifer sometimes , but I adore it!

When it comes to makeup removers and cleansers I can be very picky, and there are many products that just refuse to take my makeup off, but Bioderma is fantastic! It removes everything, and it honestly feels like water. I just put some on a cotton pad and rub it all over my face and eyes and it takes everything off like a dream:)

Another favourite would have to be the Body Shop's coconut body butter. It just has the most wonderful coconut scent and it  is so hydrating. I bought this massive tub in the summer and kind of stopped using it once school started, but this month I have been using it sooo much. Plus the smell reminds me of summer which is always nice!

And you probably all know about my candle obsession....but this candle is divine! It is Marshmallow fireside from bath and body works and that is exactly how it smells. It is just such a nice, comforting candle and it isn't overwhelmingly strong, so I don't get headaches. It's almost all gone which makes me sad but I do have another candle to use afterwards.

As for books, I have been reading A Tree Grows In Brooklyn. I have read this book numerous times and I read it again this month. I just love this book so much. It is set in the early 1900s in Brooklyn and is centered around a young girl named Francie, and it talks about different aspects of her family's life as she grows older. Her family has very little money and there are plenty of struggles that they face. This book is amazing and I have to say it is one of my favourites. I would highly recommend it.

 This one many people may disagree with but I have been loving the snow!! Yes we got more, A LOT more and I am thrilled. It just makes everything look so beautiful! I know many people want gone, and I am looking forward to spring, but there is just something so magical about snow and the winter time. And don't worry, I have been tobogganing a lot the past couple of months ;)

That is it for my favourites this month, I hope you all have a wonderful day, and let me know what you have been enjoying lately,
Byeeee <3
