For my mom's 60th birthday my sisters and I surprised her by taking her to Salt Lake City for dinner, shopping, and to spend the night at a hotel.
A couple of days before our big "Girl's Night Out" I received the most stunning turquoise necklace, bracelet, and earrings from Lush Boutique. I was very excited to wear them with my sisters and mom while we shopped in Salt Lake.
When I walked out adorning my new jewelry from Lush Boutique, my sister said, "Oh my gosh, you look model-ish!"
Who?
Me?
The girl who was once told she looked like a young Jodie Foster in Freaky Friday?
Model-ish?
I don't recall ever being told I looked model-ish. And that's when I decided, when someone tells you you look model-ish, you take it and run, baby. And then you tell others about the brilliant jewelry you were wearing at the exact moment someone told you you looked like a model. Ish.
And so here it is.
The Very Lovely Jewelry from Lush Boutique.
I have decided that it is important to own a few really nice pieces of jewelry.
Some that are classic.
Some that go with everything.
And some that you can pass onto your daughters or nieces.
Lush Boutique offers exactly this type of jewelry (and no, that is not me in the above image). They specialize in fresh and chic handmade jewelry at an affordable price. Their favorite materials to use are turquoise, sterling silver, semi-precious gems, pearls, and basically anything else that is gorgeous. Lush Boutique offers affordable jewelry that is timeless and fashionably chic.
The owner of Lush Boutique says, "I love designing jewelry that makes beautiful women feel even more beautiful."
Or perhaps even, let's say, model-ish?

I was in the process of moving and gave her my bed, dresser, dining room set, lines and misc. items to help her get settled in her "new" home. I felt so good in doing this for her and her family.

RaeAnne Saunders: One year when I was little, my family was having a particularly hard year financially. We weren't going to have many presents, or really barely have enough to pay any bills. Christmas eve, there's a knock on our door. A tall, older gentleman is standing there in a winter coat and cap. He has soft eyes and short grey hair, and is reaching in his pocket for something. He hands us an envelope and simply says "Merry Christmas". My Mom opens the envelope to find 500 dollars and immediately starts to cry. I rushed to the door to thank him, and no one was there. Not even footprints in the snow....

Christmas of 2002, I baked 12 dozen chocolate chip cookies and wrapped them in sets of 4 cookies each w/ a candy cane and on Christmas morning, my husband and I went to downtown San Francisco and handed out our little packages to all the homeless people. We walked forever and just stopped and said Merry Christmas and gave them a treat. A few of the homeless thought we were weird and denied our treats. Overall, it was SO much fun.
Christa Brower: Last year my friend and I bought and wrapped presents for a family in our ward that had no money for Christmas, it was a lot of fun to imagine the smiles on their faces Christmas morning.
