How creative are you? Aloha Friday - # 58


Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday. In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too.

What is the most creative costume you ever made or wore?

My answer -
When I was younger, my mom helped dress me up as Groucho Marx!
Yep!!! I really need to find the picture!
I had the grey wig... The fake cigar... The black glasses...
The suit! I love it!
:)
Happy Halloween everyone!!!!

Stop by HERE to see what Broxton is going as...

    I was never really into dressing up so, I usually had a basic costume.

    One year, at a Halloween Bash/Dance at a local bar, I went as Martha Stewart. (Back in the year she was put behind bars) I found a blond wig online that really looked like her hair (one side of the bangs hung down in my eye, ya know) I wore a striped black/white jail suit. I had handcuffs on. On my entrance, I carried a huge plate of Halloween cookies to give to everyone while saying, "It's a good thing". I had fun playing the part. We had a lot of laughs.

    One of my favorite that I personally have made was the Statue of Liberty. I've made some fun costumes for my kids, posted some for WW this past week.

    I have made a few... Let's see I think this years is the best. Daughter wanted a smurf one. No pattern so I had to view a movie and design one of it.

    How cool - Groucho Marx! The most creative costume was the Double Mint Twins with my co-worker. We had identical blonde braid wigs, green shirts, white pants and we carried around packs of the gum. It was so cute!

    :) I totally want to see that pic!

    I've never made a costume before. I'm not that creative and my kids are just getting the idea of halloween, so not sure how that will progress with costumes.

    Have a lovely weekend!

    Two years ago my son dressed up as The Man in the Yellow Hat and we used his little monkey backpack with a leash as his "Curious George" - so cute!

    I remember sewing genie costumes for my kids when they were little but my fav would have to be when they went as Thing 1 and Thing 2. It was too easy!

    Have a great Friday!

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c

Momma Must Have - Exergen Temporal Thermometer- Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, it can sometimes be a bit difficult to take the temperature of a sick child. Hey, some adults are known to be big babies... The longer they have to wait, the fussier they become. Well, with the Exergen Temporal Scanner ... Wait is something that can be eliminated! Why do I say that? Just because the wait is merely 2 seconds! During that time, you will already be finished a gift giveaway blog hop, exergen temporal scanner, mom must have, R nd moving on to something else. I really like the ease of the Exergen Thermometer. It has a soft tip on it that you gently swipe across the forehead of your "patient." There are two things that make this stand out compared to others that I have used. One - If you are sweating, you can place it behind your ear to get your temperature. Two - There is a light on both sides to show you that it is on. I like that, as I sometimes worry if it is on or not... You know how I can be! First, remove the protective cap... Turn it on...
