Cass Life

We are loving the Spring season! My kids are outside every waking second, playing in the yard and getting dirty! The Hus has been burning brush and going to town in our woods! We are happy campers!

Love having our play-set for the unlimited hours of fun for the kids! We have been dreaming about putting this crazy slide in the yard. I found it on pinterest. How amazing is it?

Trader Joe's Cookie Butter S'mores! Oh my.

The Hus hung patio lights for me under our deck! I scored the ferns at Home Depot: 2/$7! 

Zion and Zakiyah love wearing daddy's helmet! :)

I love taking pix of the girls on Sundays for "Sunday's Best"! This one just kills me! It looks like Kiyah is getting her praise on! 

 It is no secret that I am obsessed with baking. This one is one of my favorite go-to recipes! Emergency Cake! I use 1/2 greek yogurt & 1/2 Mayonnaise though. I prefer the bunt pan vs. the 8x8

 I have been painting this old hutch that my dad started to make years back! It is going to go in our dining room :)

 Oh the faces of my girls……. HILARIOUS! Selfies and all.

Let's talk about the mini carts at the grocery stores….. I have a love/hate relationship with these bad boys. The running around…. the freedom… the ankles getting attacked……. I just say a prayer every time for safety! :) Any other mamas feel the same way? 

Happy Friday!

I LOVE CUTTING KIDS HAIR!!!!! Especially, MY DAUGHTERS!!!! Look how cute Zion is in her new bob!? She is gorg!

This was Mollie's first hair cut! SHe is a doll!

Summer is approaching and my peeps are read for change! 

I love flat ironing textured hair to switch it up! What a treat!

 Bring on the caramels and blonde highlights!

Jorge looking fresh and clean cut! 

 My buddy is a mama to twin babies and it was a TLC night when I colored/cut her hair!!!!!

Love how this color/cut combo gives Amy some spice!

Melanie has amazing hair!!!!!! I love coloring and cutting her hair! LOVELY

 Brittany wanted lots of caramel tones to brighten her look! I cleaned up her ends to give it a healthy look!

I cut off the assymetrical bob and evened it up for spring!

Katie and I have been working on bringing her hair back to blonde! She had an all over brown all winter and now we are prepping for her WEDDING!

Ashley had fun copper tones in her hair, but we wanted some contrast. I colored her roots/painted through her ends with a rich brown/auburn and gave her lots of variations with blondes/caramels.

 

My word…… I am obsessed with the Deva Curl line! I have been rocking it on anyone I can get my hands on. Natural. Smells amazing. Easy. Light weight. Perfection. Let's not fight the natural curl/waves! Let's embrace!!!!!!! I am selling the line at Tala! Ask me to style your hair next time with these products! You won't regret!

Christy selfie with Deva No Poo/ Deva conditioner/ Deva spray gel. BLISS> I finished with my Awapuhi Sea Salt Spray. 

Oh La La

Any fun looks for you lately? Please share!!!!!! 

What makes our house a home……...

I love the little details that go into a home, to have it represent you! Having children has definitely created change within our space, to have it accommodate our needs on a daily basis! I thought it would be fun to share some of my current favs that make it…..US. 

SPRING FLOWERS!!!!!!!! I buy $4-6 bouquets at Trader Joes and spread them throughout my home! Happy // Joy // Fresh // Cozy

Our tray on our table with some favs:  Candle from gram/ Pitcher from gram with flowers / elephant S&P shakers / our dinner devo / mug rugs 

How happy and perfect is this tablecloth!!!!??? It fits my personality to a T!

Let's be real! Pie is Happiness. I made apple pie last night for our dinner! 

My little monster/ 20 month old lil lady eats by the fists full. This morning……. oatmeal shoveling in her mouth. I heart her. 

I love all of the crafts and art that my kids make in our home! Zion made this canvas at church! She is sooooooo creative! Her three words she writes daily are:  Zion + MomC ( for Christy) + and Frozen (of course)  She is also obsessed with drawing hands and painting the nails on them! 

Zion and Zakiyah painted pinecones recently too! I put them in a vase and wrapped moss and hemp on it! (I had easter eggs hanging on branches before with this vase) 

Painted rocks. 

I am obsessed with the indian fabric "kantha" throws. I have them throughout my home! I love it on my nightstand! 

We are still plugging away on getting our old nursery into a office/art room! I just painted the peg board for the space! I used a Moroccan stencil. I am soooo excited for this room to be used to it's maximum potential. 

What makes your home you? 

Happy Monday!

I have been curling my hair a lot lately! I love how it is finally getting longer!!!!! 

It is a miracle when my 20 month old lets me put headbands in her hair! My FAV!!!! 

In the Spirit of Easter, here is Zi telling me she is "Mary"! :)

 Remember last week's LLW? I showed you Chelsey's before (blonde)? She came back in for round two of the brown and caramels! I am loving her dimension now that she has more depth. The left side is after we prepped her hair and the right side is after coloring her base darker and pulling it through. She will continue to add darker tones in her blonde locks. 

 Brittney loves rocking the assymetrical bob. I painted her hair with a dark brown at her base and pulled a clear glaze through her ends! We freshened up her left side with some fun brighter tones. 

 Holly gave me the honor of cutting off 12" of her hair for Locks of Love! She is a mama of 4 (youngest is 3 wks old!) and needed change! I love how shiny her hair looks! 

 Tanya has amazing hair! It was rather dry pre-color/cut, so I colored her hair with a rich copper gold and glazed her hair through her ends to condition it and expand the cuticle again! We cleaned up her cut overall too! 

 Taylor had a fun ombré wanting to go back to her natural after much debate! She looks gorgeous either way! I love how a rich, all over tint just changes her look so much! She is gorgeous! 

 April always means BLONDE! I never get sick of seeing the before and after results of lots of blonde added in! Both of these ladies, needed fresh locks!!!! It looks amazing on them!!!! 

 My sister came in for a new do too! She is a natural red head, who prefers more intense reds on her! I colored her hair with three colors: a high def Red-Voilet, a Red-Red and a copper glaze! WOW! She looks amaze! 

Happy Lock love WED!
