Stork Baby Gifts

- brandy3 1 Comment

It seems like lately everybody is getting pregnant, it makes me want another one of my own. Unfortunately I will not be able to have any more children, my body can’t handle it.

So I am at the faze now where I am enjoying other peoples joy, and buying baby gifts for showers. One of my favorite places to buy baby gift baskets is storkbabygiftbaskets.com.  They have the cutest gifts for baby showers or even a hospital delivery gift.

You can buy diaper cakes, baby baskets, and can even get personalized baby gifts.  One of the cutest things I saw on the site was the gifts for twins and triplets. So so cute, with the matching bibs and more.

Check out storkbabygiftbaskets.com to find the perfect baby basket for your next baby shower.

The Croods: Prehistoric party! is a laugh out loud family fun video game featuring the Grug, Ugga. Eep, Thunk, Sandy, Gran and Guy, on a hilarious adventure through 30 unique, fun and addictive mini-games.

Compete in evets located in five imaginitive and dynamic game boards, inspired by the movie, you’ll also get to see never before seen creatures. Compete with your friends and family in nonstop fun with up to 4 players.

Key features of the game:

  • 30 Croods themed party games
  • Choose Your Favorite character to play with
  • Collectibles and game extras

**** This game is kind of tricky when you first start playing it, but my daughter actually caught on really quick.   There are tons of mini games like rolling the dice, walking around the town. My daughters favorite game would be rolling the dice, because it was “easy and fun” as she says.

Some of the things I noticed where every time you go to a new mini game, you have to select how many players and which player you want to play.   It really reminds me of another wii game Wii party.

You can buy The Croods Prehistoric Party for the WII or other systems now at retailers nationwide.

Celebrating St. Patricks Day with #HormelFamily

- brandy3 1 Comment

Yes, I know St. Patricks Day has come and gone, but being Irish the food is alway here to stay!!  Although most people go for the traditional corned beef and cabbage on St. Patricks Day, I don’t.   We do a a family breakfast every year, we have eggs, toast and Hash.

Life can get so stressful at times that cooking the hash just isn’t possible and we always look for the easy way out. Luckily Hormel brand Mary Kitchen has Corned Beef Hash in a can for those easy recipes. It is actually quite good  in certain recipes.

Our St. Patricks Day breakfast turned out great.

The hash mixed in with a cheese omelet and bacon was so very good. I love our breakfast tradition.

Disclosure:  I’ve partnered with Hormel Foods as part of the Hormel FoodsExtended Family Blogger Program. Throughout the year I’ll be receiving product, coupons, giveaways and promotions. However, no payment was given or expected for posting about the program, and as always, all opinions given here are fully my own.

Putting The Personalized Touches On Your House

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Mailbox and Beyond.

When we finally get to own our own home, I will be making it all my own. I have been picturing it in my head for a while, I want a nice beautiful mailbox and a address plaque to show off my house.

That may sound kind of silly, but every house I have ever lived in had missing numbers on the door, or the mailbox was really old and you could barely read the address. So just picturing my future house I want a custom personalized address plaque, so people can always find my address by my house. No stickers or torn of falling numbers.

My mailbox is the first thing people will see when they drive by or when they arrive at my house, so I want it to be really nice. Not to mention that it should have the address properly displayed on it for the mailman etc.  I really like the Whitehall Mailboxes available. They seem really sturdy and you can personalize them. I love the ones that have the little box at the bottom for newspapers. It makes it so much easier and you never need to worry about your paper getting damaged.

I can’t wait to own my own house!!!!

So tell me, is your mailbox or having your address properly displayed important to you?

- brandy3 9 Comments

I’ve been through a few graduations through the years. It’s been exactly 10 years since my high school graduation. My husband had his College graduation in 2010, and my daughter also had her Preschool graduation that year.

My husband is back in school earning his PHD, but will not graduate for another year or so, but when he does that will be a big celebration for us. This year my son will be graduating preschool.

I am sad but excited at the same time, my last baby will graduate preschool. I want to make it as special as I can, even though it’s just preschool. Since our family is not around, I will be purchasing picture cards to send to family.

Tiny Prints invitations and announcements feature:

  • Designs as special as your graduate
  • Designs that match your graduates personality
  • Premium stationary brand
  • Beautiful Trend Forward Design

Don’t forget you can also personalize your ownTiny Prints graduation gifts, like mugs, notepads and more.

I love the prints that they have on Tiny Prints.
