Ruffles! What more needs to be said!?!

Sometimes as I read other lovely blogs I am astonished by what I find! One blog that is particularly inspiring to me is called Ruffles and Stuff. The author of this fabulous blog is Disney. She puts together some of the best tutorials and she always inspires me to create cuter and more creative things!

Lots to be proud about!

Aida (2000 Original Broadway Cast)

Hey Everybody!

Sorry I have been MIA for a while! I have been so busy that I have not had time to devote to my blog writing. I thought that I would take this opportunity to brag a bit however. One of the reasons that I have not had time to blog is because I have been completely distracted by the Shasta High School musical production of AIDA.

Why have I been so distracted by this.....MY SISTER MADISON WAS AIDA!!!!!!! I am just a bit proud of her as you can tell. Well, actually I am proud of both of my sisters because they both worked very hard on this production. Madison being the lead had to be at practices all the time and deal with the stresses of that and Sydney was the hair and makeup artist for the production. Of course there were many other very talented people involve in this production but I am partial. Here are some pictures form the production and a video of Madison during my very favorite part! ENJOY, and feel the pride!!

Lots of spray on "abs"  and tans for this

production!

This shot shows the abs well. On stage this 

looks totally real! (the cute man in maroon

is my Dad, he has mad skills!)

The lovely lady in blue is my mom! She did so

much for this production I couldn't write

about it all!

This picture is my favorite! I love that Syd is 

spraying Madi with her eyes closed, Madi has

a doofy look on her face, and you can see my

Mom in the background taking the picture!

This is my family!! :)

My Dad fixing up Madi's tan. For this musical you needed

to have a dark skin tone and this does not come

naturally for my family!! Hurray for airbrushing!!

Yup, get those ankles!

Syd putting the finishing touches on 

a nubian slave girl's braids. Syd was in

charge of doing LOTS of braids!

Madi all ready for the first scene that 

takes place in a museum.

Click this picture for video link of Madi singing!

Her are some more helpful links that you might find interesting.  (These are all from Broadway non are of the High School musical but the High School copied this version)

Saturday Hike!!

Today was a wonderful Saturday spent away from almost all things Minggus and 

 Moob! Every aspiring artist needs an inspiration break now and again! Me, Jake and our friends Brian and Trisha all went on a hike today! We had lots of fun! Our destination was Whiskeytown Falls, near Redding, CA were we live. For more information about this check out this totally rad book!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 All beautiful and ready for the hike!

 Trisha always ready for the goofy shot.. me I'm like never ready! 

I always seem to be doing something doofy!

 Can you say Heath Family

Christmas Card!!! 

Ok, I know we are in tank tops.

Trisha and I put smiles on our faces, (not feeling quite so beautiful) 

for this shot, we were just a touch winded! The picture

does not do a good job of showing how steep it

really was.

Almost to the top!

Jake always brings his bendy leg tri-pod

for our camera. Jake is a master at setting it up

on weird places to take a group shot! I was afraid it would

fall into the water or he wouldn't be able to get back 

to us in time to be in the picture...but like always he 

just made it. :)

 The famous Jake one handed shot!

 The famous Jake one handed shot... that almost

misses me!

WE MADE IT!!

 The falls were spilling more water

then Trisha had ever seen before!

 Brian always look so

"NOT WINDED"!!

I thought we were at the top! We were only at the first top!

You can hike above the falls and see more, of course the

guys were ready to climb up higher! Trisha and I just smiled

and kept following them up. :)

Sigh, the real top!! We made it!!

Monday I will annouce who won the Minggus and Moob

Headband Giveaway so come back soon!!

I hope you all have a great weekend filled with 

adventures and "good stuff"!!

Finished Images From Shoot Group 2

Just like I promised here are the last pictures from the Minggus and Moob/ SK-Artistry photo shoot! You will get to see the last collection called "Not Naughty...Nautical" and I will show you some pictures that  I think are great that I forgot to put in the blog the other day!

While you check out the shots I'm going to go grab a cup of coffee so I'll be right back!!

"Not Naughty...Nautical"

The "Not Naughty...Nautical" tank has great embellishments!!

I love Moob patch perfect!!

Now...More pictures that I hadn't edited from the shoot that I really like!!

Only Minggus and Moob models can

work tanks and scarves at the same time!

Antique buttons are always the perfect accent!

I can't get enough feathers!!

I think this is a beautiful shot and its for a $3

hair clip!!

These clips come in many different colors!

 

Okay! That was fun and my coffee is perfect! You know when you get the perfect

ratio of coffee to creamer, sigh, that would be the way mine is right now!

I would like to know from all of the shots (group 1 and group 2)
which picturesstruck you and made you want to click
to check out a Minggus and Moob product or which one
made you want to hire SK-Artistry to do your hair and

makeup for an up coming event!!
We would love and appreciate your feedback on

this and thank you in advance for your comments!

From the grand collaboration of Minggus and Moob and SK-Artistry
