Gorilla Gym Review ~ Home Fitness For All Ages

By Lakota

October 31st, 2015
Thank you to Gorilla Gym for providing me with product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions belong to me.  It's October here in Michigan, which means cool weather and the doom and gloom of winter approaching. I say doom and gloom of winter because I have two children aged 18 months and 4. If you have kids you know the absolute value of warm weather for your kids to go out and romp around in. Snow has its ups but with kids my age it really doesn't have much upside. Not to mention pent Read more [...]

Makeover With Wagner Power Steamer & Paint Sprayer ~ Review

I received products from Wagner for my review. All opinions and photos are my own.   We recently moved into a new home. The house we purchased was built in 1989. For a twenty six year old house, it is in amazing shape. All we really needed to do to make it our home were some cosmetic updates. If you can remember 1989, wall paper was really popular. Our house has ten different wallpapers as proof. Just like the construction of the house, the wall paper application was done to perfection. Read more [...]
