Thank you to Swonder Direct for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. Our family of four loves to get together and play outdoors whenever possible. One of our favorite things to do is to go camping. Usually, when we camp, we are around a body of water, either a lake or a calm river. We've spent past years floating on tubes and/or rafts and have had great fun doing it. This year, we wanted to knock it up a notch and try paddle boarding. That brought Read more [...]

Thank you to Manscaped for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. Last Christmas, I featured Manscaped men's hygiene products and grooming tools in our Holiday Gift Guide. When I was presented with the opportunity, I really wasn't sure what my husband would think of them. In the 20+ years my husband and I had been together, I had never seen him use anything other than bar soap, cheap razors, and shampoo for grooming. I honestly had no idea if he Read more [...]

Thank you to Swonder Direct for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. A few years ago, we discovered paddle boarding. We hadn't heard of them before our friends purchased one. While visiting them, we tried paddle boarding and had a lot of fun. It was something our daughters enjoyed, it was good exercise and it was an outdoor activity we could do as a family. This spring I began thinking about getting our own paddle boards. After some research, Read more [...]
