Board Games have always been a huge part of our lives, and when I heard about Gamesformotion and their YUMMY Belgian chocolate version of board games, I knew I had to work with them!! Chocolate and board games, life does not get much better does it?

Nowadays, people play less board games because social media has taken over the world, but it is something that my family and I still try to do on a regular basis! The games from Gamesformotion are not only delicious but are perfectly functional too!

Win $50 to Fragrance.net

YEARS ago, I was a smoker. One of the reasons that I convinced myself to stop is I wanted to smell good. I am a very sensory oriented person, and smelling good means a lot to me. I recently reached out to Fragrance.net to see if they were interested in sending me a perfume for review. When they agreed, I really had no idea which scent I would love so I just looked in their top sellers and went from there! The Simply Belle by Exceptional Parfums looked amazing so that was my choice!

 Simply Belle has a beautiful blend of scents: opens with orange oil, peach, violet leaves, middle notes jasmine, lily of the valley, water lily, heliotrope, bottom notes musk, vanilla, benzion siam. I was not sure what exactly this combo would smell like, but I was very happy with the result! This perfume is exactly what you would expect something called Simply Belle to smell like! It is a soft, feminine scent that works for any season. It is a classy and clean scent that works for the office, a day out shopping, or even a night out on the town! It truly is a lovely scent great for all ages! 

I also got the Spongebob Squarepants by Nickolodeon for my stinky little seven year old boy!! At 7, he is already wearing deodorant and having body odor, so I thought a LIGHT cologne might be nice for him! I was very happy with the scent in this cologne, it is VERY light (which is awesome because who wants a 7 year old to smell like a cologne store?) It is a men's citrusy scent, but is not overpowering at all! My little man feels like a "big guy" when he is getting ready in the morning and squirts a dab of cologne on like his daddy! 

Diono Makes Life Easier for "On The Go" Families Like Us!

If you talk to anyone who knows my family well, they will tell you just how on the go we are! We absolutely love taking mini vacations and exploring areas around us as often as we can! This is the reason we purchased a mini-van that has a pop down DVD player so my boys can stat entertained on the road. Even having that DVD player, they still need drinks/snacks and toys and Mommy has to have a way to keep it all organized! Recently, Diono reached out to me about a couple products that make my life so much easier and organized in the car! 

Travel Pal™Designed to keep books and toys neat and organized, it has a deep cargo bin for toys and lots of pockets for smaller things, too. It also has insulated drink holders and the entire cargo area is waterproof - just in case. Travel Pal fits between two child car seats and it's big enough to hold everything for both children.
Stow 'n Go™Keeps everything organized and easy to find when you need it. Our seatback organizer does it all with seven full sized pockets and two drink holders in a washable, waterproof fabric.

Vtech Kidizoom Smartwatch Giveaway!

Just the other day, my oldest son was telling me how much he wanted a video camera and asking how much money he needed to save to purchase one! At the young age of just barely seven, he has decided he wants to record his video games! You can imagine his surprise when he opened the Vtech Kidizoom Smartwatch and discovered that this records videos and takes pictures! We had an absolutely happy little boy when he found this out!

Shrimp & Grits Kids Review

Anyone that knows me well, knows that kids clothing are an obsession of mine. I see my children as a reflection of myself, and therefore I want them seen in the best possible light. Okay, well maybe that is just what I am telling myself to justify purchasing SUPER cute clothes. Every now and then I score awesome kids clothes for review, like I recently did with Shrimp & Grits Kids. I received the Whale T-Shirt and Blue Stripped Shorts. 

The first thing I noticed about Shrimp & Grits Kids (besides the awesome name- as a Florida girl, I just ADORE the name) was the prices! Most items are on sale and you can purchase clothing items starting at $10.80. The rompers, bubbles, tees and shorts for little boys are so adorable and have that amazing boutique look! The girl selection is even better and provides applique dresses, smocked top, girls bubbles and many more styles. You can even purchase matching brother/sister outfits which is wonderful for family pictures!
