I received products from New Jammies for this review. All opinions are my own. Another of our family Christmas traditions is gifting new pajamas. Pajamas have a special way of providing us comfort, warmth and relaxation. Simply putting on a clean pair of pajamas can put our day’s stress at ease and make us feel better. This is why we give at least one new pair of pajamas to the girls every Christmas. It’s a way for us to give them the feeling of comforting love and soothing relief. New Read more [...]

I enjoy wearing jewelry, especially when someone special takes the time to find a piece for me.  However, no matter how I come across it, when I find a piece of jewelry that I like, it gets worn a lot.  My husband gave me a necklace years ago and I wore it every single day for about three years until I accidentally zipped it into my coat and my husband had to bust it to get it back out.  That was a sad day for me as I really loved that necklace.  I knew my husband had spent hours picking Read more [...]

Growing up, my sister, brother, and I all had Christmas stockings that would be filled with goodies when we awoke on Christmas morning.  Even though we knew when to expect them to be filled, we would continue to squish them each morning just in case.  Of course, there were times when they appeared to have bulges (and were still empty) which added to our daily fun and anticipation of what Christmas morning would bring.  Now that I am a parent, I like to find some fun things to include in our Read more [...]

Thank you The Macbeth Collection for providing me with products to review, free of charge, and for sponsoring this giveaway. These are my own honest opinions.  Some of you might remember my previous review of Macbeth Collection products. Not only are they great home accessories but they are 100% customizable to coordinate with any decor. I love the storage tubs I designed with their help so I was super excited to have the opportunity to design more products and share my totally gorgeous living Read more [...]

I received product from Dahlgren Footwear for this review. All opinions are my own. It is a tradition in our family to gift socks every year. Usually I just purchase a pack of bulk athletic socks for myself and my husband but this year I wanted to find something different. My search began with looking for men’s work socks. I wanted to find my husband some high quality socks that could stand up to his rough and rugged wear. My husband has a physically demanding job. When he is working in Read more [...]

I grew up eating popcorn often. It was a snack that my parents always kept on hand for everyone to munch on in the evenings.  I still enjoy popcorn as a snack, however, we rarely have it in our home because we do not use a microwave.  So when I get the chance to try some popcorn, I jump.  Back when my husband and I were still dating, we'd frequent the movie theatre often and popcorn was always my treat of choice.  One time, we went on a double date with some friends and made the mistake of Read more [...]

*I was provided with Zip Bins from Neat Oh in return for this post. All opinions are my own. My nephew Drew is 3 and he loves cars. My step dad has a stock car that he races at a local track and Drew loves to go and regularly incorporates part of the race track experience into his play. For example, he likes to say that one of the cars "spun the other car out" and then the car that got hit "has to go to the pits" etc. Whenever I tag along to doctors appointments, baby showers or any other Read more [...]

I like finding eco-friendly products and ways to help preserve our Earth.  One thing that my whole family does is use reusable water bottles instead of the plastic throw-aways.  Not only does the water taste better from quality drinking containers, but it's one less thing to end up in the garbage.  I found the great company, Eco Vessel, earlier this year and was able to partner with them for a review this past Spring.  I was excited to partner again and include them in this years Holiday Read more [...]

European Toymaker Famosa, who is well known for quality, introduced Pinypon to the US market in 2012.  I was pleased to partner with them to bring you this review on their Snow Ski Lodge Play Set and Snow Adventure Car & Tow Set. The Pinypon Snow Ski Lodge Play Set is geared for ages 4 and up.  When our kids saw this box, they were beyond excited.  After opening, I realized that there was a little more preparation than I had thought.  The Snow Ski Lodge itself was fairly easy Read more [...]
