Mrs. Budget Beauty

This was my month to host our Bunco group and I picked the theme "Drug Store Beauty Queen."  Everyone brings a small gift that goes with the theme and I get all the gifts!!  I told them I wanted anything related to beauty, that you could get at a drugstore like CVS, Walgreens and the grocery store.  I also brought out a lot of my costumes and had them laid out all over my front room so that when they walked in the door, they essentially walked into a dress up room and picked out something fun to wear.  We had so much fun...I think the costumes loosened everyone up a little extra (which we really don't need because we're already kind of rowdy!)  Anyway, it was a great success!

I went as Mrs. Budget Beauty and I have to say I'm kind of proud of myself....this is the first time I've really tried to do my makeup and I didn't look like a drag queen!  But I'm still not high maintenance enough to do this stuff daily...and the fact that I looked like a raccoon by the end of the night.

Here's the whole fun gang!




And here's my loot!  I got all kinds of fun things and I can't wait to try them all!
