What makeup??!!

Steph over at Adventures in Babywearing is having a little contest and in honor of People Magazine's issue of Stars Without Makeup she is looking for brave souls to bare it all...okay at least the face. That means no makeup, including lipstick, mascara, pimple concealer...nuthin. Now I think I may actually be in the minority considering that it is very rare when I DO wear any makeup. When I was about 14 I remember arguing and arguing with my dad to let me wear makeup and eventually I did wear him down...to at least a little powder concealer and lip gloss. Anyways as I got older I found myself wearing less and less and when my terrific husband said he preferred me without makeup well, then I thought what the heck...he already married me so who do I need to impress. I do still on occasion, that would be very special occasions, wear makeup especially since my mom gave me an awesome bare essentials makeup kit. It is fun to put on the makeup and get dressed up to go out for a night on the town now and then, but honestly I get up at 5:30 in the morning as it is and makeup just isn't enough incentive to make that any earlier. Plus I don't think my 23 little darlings at school really mind their teacher doesn't wear make up as long as she provides pizza for a treat and gives lots of extra recess. So without further ado a picture of me "Au Natural"!

No make up, but we girls did just do our nails!
