W/W - Broxton likes to "Hut"

Warning, sort of long post, but so worth the read!!!!

Broxton LOVES football!
I think it is a great thing, being that we are all huge football fans!
My hometown has an arena football team, the Albany Panthers.
Whenever they are playing and we are visiting my parents, we try to go to the game.
The great thing about it, after the game is over...
They allow the fans on the field to meet the players.
This is where Broxton gets really, REALLY, R.E.A.L.L.Y. excited.
The first few games, he just kind of looked around not sure what was going on.
Then, he got it!

He would high five them.
He loved it.
THEN, it happened!
He was standing there and one of the players bent down to talk to him...
Broxton said "HUT"
The player looked at me and I said, he wants to "Hut!"
So, he squatted down, Broxton "Hutted" and then "tackled" the player.
He fell over all dramatically and it totally made Broxton's night!

From that point on, he was always wanting to "hut!"
The next game, he hutted a few more...
One guy thought he said "hug" so he hugged him and then Broxton was like, "No, HUT!"
Then he got it!
He bent down and hutted.
All the other fans standing around LOVE that the players (who do not really get paid that much, that I know of) take the time to "hut" with a 2 year old!!!

The last game of the year, Broxton was so excited!
We took a football for them to sign.
He hutted, he high fived!
He got a few autographs...
He was able to get pictures with some of them, but most of all...
He got to have an amazing time with a great group of guys!

Here are a few pictures to share:
Here is Broxton with our mascot, Prowler!
With the cheerleaders! They were all like, "We LOVE him!"
Broxton with one of the players after they "hutted!"
With the very first player to ever "hut" him.
Needless to say, we normally tried to find him after each game!
The Panthers are in the playoffs this weekend.
They play Columbus, who is the ONLY team to beat us this year...
(They beat us twice)
Please root for my hometown! LoL
You can even like them on facebook and leave a good luck message if you want!!!!

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...

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!!!!...
