Bucket list #107 !

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends! I’m so excited to tell you about this super fun list item that I crossed off ! So, here we go!

#107. Win first place in a contest or event

To fully tell this story I have to take you back to last month. I was on Instagram and I saw a post from Yogurt Land advertising a contest ! To enter the contest you had to create a fun Yogurt Land creation take a picture of it and put it on Instagram using the hashtag they provided plus tag them in the photo. The prize for the winner was a $100.00 Yogurt Land gift card! I really wanted to enter this contest because I love making fun frozen yogurt creations. Later that week I made my way to Yogurt Land and took a picture of the Yogurt Land mountain that I made . I followed the instructions to enter the contest and then I waited. Then early this this month I received a message from Yogurt Land saying that I had won the contest! I was so excited !! Yesterday I finally got around to using my gift card for the first time ! I’m so happy I won the contest! Here’s to more yogurt land creations!

Tie – Dye Frappuccino !!

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends ! A lot of you know that I’m a big fan of Starbucks. when I saw that they had come out with a fun fruit flavored drink, I just had to try it ! I’m excited to tell you all about it so let’s go !

Tie – Dye Frappuccino !!

This story starts last week , when I was just scrolling through Instagram. I came across a post from Starbucks announcing their new limited time drink called the Tie – Dye Frappuccino. I got excited and I knew I just had to try it before it ran out. I had work later that afternoon, I figured that I would just leave early for work and go to the Starbucks near by. My friend wanted to join me on this Tie – Dye Frappuccino quest so she came and picked me up. Then we headed off to Starbucks! I was a little worried that they may have sold out already because this new colorful drink was being written about on news websites! It turned out that there was no need to worry because there was no line and plenty of Tie – Dye Frappuccinos left to go around. When our drinks were ready I was not disappointed ! They looked very beautiful. The only down side is that they turned to all yellow pretty quickly but hey yellow is a happy color!Now, on to the taste . The Tie – Dye Frappuccino  had a bold fruity flavor. It tasted like a shake plus it was topped with whipped cream! I really enjoyed it but if your more of a coffee or chocolate fan I would skip this one.

Toy Story 4 review ( Spoiler free)

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends ! I have been very limited on time lately but I’m determined to catch up on my blog posts. Last month I got to see Toy Story 4 and I can’t wait to tell you about it . Let’s go !

Toy Story 4 review ( Spoiler free)

I have seen all of the Toy Story movies and I was looking forward to the latest addition. This one is perfect for summertime because not only does it take place during the summer ,most of the movie takes place during a road trip! The characters that fans loved from the previous movies are back along with some new ones as well. My favorites of the new characters are Ducky and Bunny . This very funny duo brought many laughs ! As with the other movies before it ,there are some serious moments but don’t let that prevent you from going to see this fun filled adventure. I can honestly say that there was never a slow moment in this movie. The story moved at a perfect pace there was not a minute where I was board. Of course this wouldn’t be a proper review of Toy Story 4 if I didn’t mention Forky ! Forky is a very fun a unique charter he also provides lots of laughs and he is very cute! To sum this all up go see this movie ! It’s a great summertime movie for all ages. Rock On – Christina Epperly

Monterrey day trip June 2019

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends! On June 28th my mom and I took a fun day trip to Monterrey. We did some fun activities and I’m excited to tell you all about it . Here we go!

 

 

Monterrey day trip June 2019

To start our day of fun we made a quick stop at a beach that my mom wanted to check out. Then for our next activity we went on the famous 17 mile drive. When you pay for the drive you get information on all the stops. Since we had a limited amount of time before we had to be at our next activity we didn’t stop at every location. My favorite stops were Spanish bay beach,bird rock, and Seal Rock. We had a great time walking around the beaches and sight seeing. After completing the stops we wanted to make,we went to Carmel for lunch and shopping. I got an awesome new snow globe for my collection. After all of that we headed back to Monterrey to check out Selfievill. Selfievill is a fairly new attraction that is held in an old theater. The experience begins with a fun light show. We missed the first part of the light show because we got a little lost on the way there but we were able to enjoy a good portion of the show. The light show was very cute and had awesome animation. After that it was on to Selfievill ! We went though all the great rooms that Selfievill had to offer. The rooms reminded me of photo sets. It was easy to feel like a model at times. I loved sitting on the big unicorn, posing by a giant lollipop and getting to sit on a bench that looked like a big cloud. My mom and I went though the rooms pretty quickly but it was a lot of fun! If you have ever wanted to be a model for a day I highly recommend selfievill! When we were done in Selfievill we headed for home. It was the perfect summer day trip.

Summer shopping spree 2019

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends! Every summer I do what I call my mall weekend. It’s where I go to the Dollar Tree on Friday and then the mall on Saturday. I used to do them more often now I just do it during the summertime. I can’t wait to tell you about this year’s mall weekend so, let’s get to it!

 

Summer shopping spree 2019

As always my summer mall weekend started at the Dollar Tree. I love going to the Dollar Tree because I can get whatever I want without stopping to look at the prices! Since I’m a big kid at heart I got all kinds of fun items such as glitter crayons , a Crayola coloring book, a set of beach toys that came with a sail boat, a Disney key chain, a My little pony craft kit and more ! I really enjoyed my trip to the Dollar tree I had such a fun time filling up my basket! I got a great haul ! It was a very successful shopping trip!

Saturday meant a trip to the mall ! I started off my mall day at Claire’s. They were having their awesome buy 3 get 3 free sale! I found six great items including a set of hair bows, a necklace with a panda bear on it, a heart shaped locket necklace with an ocean theme, and flamingo earrings. Then I went to forever 21,Old Navy ,the Disney store and Target. I got some really awesome things such as socks with a dinosaur print , polka dotted flip flops, a Lion king figurine set and flamingo pencil toppers.Overall it was a very successful mall trip ! I’ve been wearing the awesome hair bows that I got at Claire’s this week!   Rock on – Christina Epperly

Summertime Arts and Crafts !

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends ! The sunny days of summertime are a perfect time to get creative! I have three projects that I recently finished and I can’t wait to tell you all about them. Here we go!

 

Summertime Arts and Crafts !

The first summertime craft I’m gonna tell you about is this awesome Disney necklace kit that I bought at CVS. This small kit contained everything needed to make the perfect Disney necklace. The necklace it’s self was easy to get started. I just opened the necklace by pulling the connectors apart then putting on the beads. I decided to put the beads in big color blocks. Then when I was done with that, it was time to put on the super cute Minnie Mouse charm and then this awesome craft was complete!

 

 

Craft number two was a set of wooden animals that I bought at the Goodwill. The idea of this craft kit was to put the animals together and then glue extra pieces on to some of the animals. I decided to put a few of the animals together then I painted them with water color paint. I didn’t follow the directions on this kit exactly but I’m happy with how I chose to make the animals. I didn’t make all the animals in the kit but the ones I did make are so cute and I’m happy with the way they turned out.

 

The last craft I’m going to tell you about was not a craft kit at all. I saved the Starbucks cup from the s’mores frappuccino that I got on June first. I decorated the cup with all kinds of fun stickers! I had a fun time going through my big box of stickers and choosing the perfect ones to decorate the cup with. Now, it’s the perfect pencil holder!

Be creative and rock on – Christina Epperly
