Getting FALL ready

Hey Treasures, I went selfie crazy on this getting ready for Fall look.  As you may know I am not a big fan of the summer season and this amazing evening and morning weather in Southern California really has me looking forward to Fall weather so I got a jump start.

I took my selfies with my phone which is a Nokia Lumia 920 and has all this awesome apps. I don't usually have these many pics but here it goes!! 

I had to bun up the hair today though because I am currently carpooling with my hubby and he rushes me out of the house every morning.

My necklace is from AVON but I don't  remember the name and so is my lip liner and lipstick. (colors below)

Here is a close up of my lips and my beautiful necklace

Happy Grandparents Day

HELLO!!!! Thank you so much for reading my blog today. You are such a Treasure.

How was your day today?
As for Mrs. Aguila, I actually had a pretty chill day.  I woke up early because this So Cal heat doesn't let me sleep in even on  day that I can. BOOO.

So since I couldn't sleep, I got up like an anxious kid on Christmas morning excited to use her new toy.  My hubby got me  a new Microsoft Surface.  LOVE IT!! He had already set it up for me so I was just messing around with it and getting acquainted with my new friend.

I decided I'd better get my work out in before heading out. I did a cardio work out that focused on abs, oh me, oh my!! After my work out, I made my Shakeology and started cleaning up before getting ready.  Mr. Aguila had a day out at the beach with his nephews and I had to take my grand daddy to run some errands.

In between that, my mom and nephew came over because they had a blackout at their place.

Anyway, I got ready and went off to pick up my grand daddy and take him to cash his check and pick up some veggies and such from the market. (sidebar--grand daddy is 89 years old).  I now have to help him with certain things and while reality makes me sad, what I mean by reality is that my grand daddy has lived close to 90 years and it is starting to show, I am so blessed to help out my grand daddy.  He knows that he can ask me for anything and I will be there.  So off we go and honestly, my grand daddy is still very independent but I find myself being so protective of him.  I just love my grand daddy and I know he loves me.  Our relationship is very special and with Grand Parents Day this weekend, here is my shout out to my Grand daddy  and my mom who is a grandma and Happy Grand Parents Day to you or your grandparents or your children's grandparents.

Are you ready for some football?

Well Hello Treasures,

How is everybody doing? I hope and pray you are doing well.

So in honor of the start of the 2013 NFL Season tonight, I decided to write about some football. I have to say that I love watching sports. I am Los Angeles Dodgers fan have been since I was a young girl and that is thanks to my granddaddy.

I also like the Los Angeles Lakers. Mr. Aguila is a huge Lakers fan, I am in between but I do enjoy watching baseball and basketball.

BUT FOOTBALL , OH YA FOOTBALL, WOO HOO!!! I love football season. I love watching football and I love me some Dallas Cowboys. I know weird since I am born and raised in Los Angeles, California. I have been a Dallas Cowboys fan since I can remember but I have never been to a football game.

Last year my husband and I went to Texas to visit our family and friends. Unfortunately, the Cowboys weren't playing at home while we were in town. We were still able to take a tour of the stadium!! Oh my goodness, what an awesome experience that was for me. We get to see the locker rooms of both the players and the cheerleaders, the press room and walk on the field and take pictures plus sit in the bleachers and shop the amazing store they have there!

Yes I was super excited like a little girl at Disneyland. It was a super cool experience for me. I was all giggles and just happy, happy to get to be there even though it wasn't for a game. We have so many pictures. I don't want to bore you with all our pictures but it was really hard to only choose a few.

We took like so many pictures, walked around and enjoyed this tour so much. I was even praying over the field and everything, Tim Tebow style!

So glad Mr. Aguila likes taking pictures because in the end all we have our the memories and the pictures. 



While we were in Texas Mr. Aguila bought me my first Dallas Cowboys jersey. You will surely see photos of me in it coming soon.  Maybe on Sunday when the Cowboys play the Giants.

 

Do you like to watch football?  What is your favorite team? Let me know. I love to read comments and be sure to get social with me.

I am so ready for some football are you???

Work It Wednesday

Hey Lovely Treasures,

Today I just want to share a little about my fitness journey.  Most of my life I have been a skinny girl.  I have been through many stages of my life.  Weight was just not something I struggled with and then suddenly (not because of my age or anything) my weight just kept increasing and increasing. Although I wasn't comfortable with the weight gain, I just didn't care enough to do anything about it. Over the past 4 1/2 years of being happily married, I gained about 27 pounds. YIKES!!!!!!

I finally decided that it was time to do something about it. My clothes just didn't fit me anymore and I was just out of my element. I started, maybe the end of July beginning of August, to make changes in my eating habits and I started to work out and joined a group for encouragement and coaching along the way PLUS prayer. I drink Shakeology and work out to the Slim in 6 videos.

I have to confess I could be doing much better and eating a lot cleaner and probably even working out more BUT I have come along way and I have now lost 7 pounds and I am so motivated to keep going on this journey.  My goal for September is to drop another 10 pounds and then in October drop another 10 pounds. 

I am trying to pick up on the cooking my own meals and planning my meals but I am not there yet to be honest. I do cook a little more than before but again I could be doing more.

If you are interested in recipes, you can check out my posts, on Cooking with Mrs. Aguila:  Tuna Salad and  Veggie Stir Fry with Shrimp.

I also have been brave and have been taking sweaty pics for accountability so here you go...

I also did some Keek's of me working out.
(If you don't know what a Keek is, it is 36 second video's you share on a social media platform.  Follow me there www.keek.com/mrsaguila09)
Ok so here's the vids, don't make fun of me, I still have 20 more pounds to lose, please and thank you =)

Monday Blues

Hey Treasures, I took the weekend off in honor of Labor day weekend! Well not really but I was just so busy that I didn't have time to even sit at my computer and blogging from my phone takes me forever but it is now time to relax and get some blog work done.

While today feels like a Sunday it is actually Monday, MAKE UP MONDAY!! woo hoo!!

It was really hot over the weekend and so even though I thought about doing something creative with my eyes and all, I just couldn't do it.

All I used on my face was Mineralize Skinfinish Natural powder in Medium Dark from MAC Cosmetics.  The last time that I did a shopping in spree at the MAC Counter for my anniversary. The girl sold me this item along with the MatchMaster Fuondation. She said something like you won't get the same look if you don't get the powder and I fell for it bought it for like $38 and don't really like it or use it. I am more of a full coverage type of girl.  Because it has been so hot, I decided to just try the powder and I actually liked it. I added some Avon blush in Cranberry and MAC Kiss Me Quick Lip liner yesterday and I was good to go for a day at Hermosa Beach, California with Mr. Aguila.

So as you know, I am an AVON (young) LADY.  I sell Avon and Mark and you can shop my website 24/7 and while you're there sign up for email updates so you can be in the know of specials and promotions and I also share them on my Facebook Page, LetsShopAvon.

I share a lot of AVON and MARK photos on my Facebook page and I wanted to share some with you here.  Some of these are not my photos, they are from AVON Facebook page and MARK.GIRL Facebook page.

I love this picture. Blue is my favorite color plus it's Monday and make up.  Perfect. Shown is the Anew Clinical Skinvincible coming in campaign 21 (for more info visit my website and check out the last page of Campaign 19), Mark Wild Blue Ring, Mark Blue Me In Earrings,  Mark No Place to Run Eyeliner in Indigo Blue, mark I-Mark Wet/Dry Eye Shadow, Electra and Nightly and mark Nailed It Trend Mini Nail Lacquer, Blue Bella

The Mega Effects Mascara is worth mentioning again and you can read more about it here.

In Avon Campaign 19, 2013 which you can view on my website, just click on shop ebrochure, AVON is introducing the NEW AVON MAKEUP Collection.

If you have NOT checked out a current AVON or MARK (which is celebrating their 10th birthday with limited-edition collections) Catalog you really need to check that out. Seriously you won't be disappointed, the prices are great and the best thing is that it has a money back guarantee. Try It and Love it or your Money Back.  I also have a few catalogs I can mail out if you might be interested in that just send me an email and I can see about doing that. (I have a limited amount of catalogs).

 

Well that's all for my AVON/MARK commercial for today.
