Stylish Blogger? Me? YAY!


Okay, I am not even going to hide the fact that I love when I get blogger awards...
I do... I really do!
It's not like I am going to be awarded for an Oscar, Emmy, Grammy or any of that...
Sooooooooooooo
I am taking it where I can get it!

Moving along........
I was so excited to find out that I was awarded the Stylish Blogger Award!!!!
Jean, at Typical Suburban Family was the one to put a huge smile on my face!

Now, let me start and tell you about Jean.
She has 2 adorable boys and I was following her blog...
Well, I was lucky enough to sit behind her at THE CIRCUS when it came to Atlanta.
We spoke a bit during the show... and then.....
I saw her again at THE DOLPHIN EXHIBIT at the Georgia Aquarium the other day!
Now, Atlanta is not small, so it was pretty cool running into each other again!

So, THANKS Jean! Love the Award!!!!

Now, on to the rules:

  • Thank and link back to the person who awarded you. Okay, that was super easy!
  • Share 7 things about myself.
    1 - I absolutely love THE ELLEN SHOW. She cracks me up! I would love so much to meet her.... and hope that I one day get the chance. Truth be told, she helped the days of Marc's deployment go by... I started my day with her and actually got to laugh at how fun she is!
    2 - I think that the art of letter writing is a dying thing... and I wish it would come back! I love mail, always have... and if you think about it... by sending mail, you are keeping the USPS employees EMPLOYED!
    3 - I love Cinnamon, but I am allergic to artificial Cinnamon flavoring.
    4 - I don't cook, not because I can't read the cookbook, but because I don't know what half the ingredients are! I would be SO MAD to cook a meal and then one ingredient be all funky and make me not want to eat it!
    5 - I love salad! When I was pregnant, many salads were eaten... and luckily, Broxton loves them too!
    6 - I am terrified of falling. Not of heights... I can stand at an observation deck all day long and look, but do NOT put me on a bridge... FEAR!
    7- I love blogging and love making new bloggy friends!
    Award 5 to 15 other blogs that I follow/love.
    I am actually going to cheat on this...
    I am awarding it to all of you...
    If you follow me and you blog, leave me your blog link, that way if I am NOT following you... I can start. (and I am apologizing now if I don't) I can not wait to read your 7 things!!!!!

    Please stop and show Jean love... She has a cute blog with a cute family!!!

      Nice to hear such great things about you. I'm afraid of heights, also.
      And you so deserve this award, my friend.
      Have a great week. :)
      HUGGLES!

    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...

    Hurry Up! Review & Giveaway

    Image
    The Holidays are getting closer and closer! Some may want the days leading up to them to "Hurry Up!" So, with that in mind... I want to kick things off with a pretty cool giveaway!!!!!!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game is kicking things off for us... Check back daily to see what is in store!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game, by Random Line is a hit around here already! True enough, Marc and I did not follow the directions, exactly as we were supposed to, but that was because I did not read them all the way! In our defense, we just wanted to see how much fun it would be to prepare for when the boys are here again! (Note, it will be a big hit! I can see it already!!) This game is super fun and as the name says... Hurry Up!!!! You have 6 die and 6 challenges... One dice is blue... and that adds for lots of fun!!! You only have 30 seconds to complete the challenge... and you might think that 30 seconds is a long time, but in actuality, it is NOT as long as you need it for some challenge!!!!...
