The month of February brought much fun here.  We had a 21st birthday, an 8th birthday, Valentines and even a trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras.  The 8 year old is into building things (still, thank goodness) so when I opened up the February Loot Crate, I knew it was going to be a great gift!  Oh, lets not forget that you can turn this months box into a Robot!!!  Score, yet again!

Who would think that plain box would open up to be turned into something super cool and that it would hold so many awesome things???? If you follow me on Instagram , you know that the shirt was immediately worn. He loved it and had to wear it that night for part of his pajamas!  While I know I said this b...

I am telling you now, Loot Crate just keeps rolling out the goods! I love how they do a "theme" each month.  A past crate theme was "Dystopia" and although I had no clue what that meant, it was neat to see all the goodies that were packed in the box.  I will go ahead and tell you, the ROBOCOP shirt was my favorite this time around!  Awesome!

Another Lootcrate filled with cool products.  I thought that the matrix puzzle was going to be my favorite (just because puzzles are neat to me) but then I checked out the Robocop shirt and knew hands down, it took the favorite category this time.   While I am a stranger to pretty much the whole box, I did find it neat to see what all ...

With Back To School all around us, I wanted to take a few minutes to highlight on a product that many don't really think about.  Okay, Okay, maybe it was just me.. because I didn't think about it until this year!  Each year when back to school rolls around, I go and start thinking about clothing.  Having a young son, we always had to go and grab the cute character t-shirts and then I would grab a few polo style shirts as well.  The polo style were great, as he could wear them to school and then wear it on Sunday to church!  Each year for Christmas, I get all the boys a pair of pajamas that they wear on Christmas Eve.  Normally I just grab the pj pants, but last year, I went and got them ...

You know how you see something and you immediately think of someone?  It happens with me- A LOT ---  Especially even more so near the holidays!  Like if I see a slot machine, I think of my mom. If I see UGA, I think of my dad.  With the trends constantly changing, I look to see what is popular now and I tell you, all of the phrases and what not have me completely lost most times.. but some things stick out and hit me, even if I might not know exactly what it is supposed to mean!
