Relive the awesomeness of everyone’s favorite martial arts- loving panda and the Furious Five in Kung Fu Panda and Kung Fu Panda 2. Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release the two films with new extras on Digital HD December 15 and Blu-ray and DVD January 5 with a bonus disc of new content.

In DreamWorks’ Kung Fu Panda, Jack Black is perfect as the voice of Po, a noodle- slurping dreamer who must embrace his true self – fuzzy flaws and all – in order to become the Dragon Warrior. With groundbreaking animation and high-kicking humor, the Oscar-nominated Kung Fu Panda is delightful entertainment for the whole family.

Black reprises his role as Po in Kung Fu Panda 2, the fiercely funny Academy Award- nominated sequel. In his biggest challenge since becoming the Dragon Warrior, Po must lead his friends and fellow kung fu masters, The Furious Five, on a mission of epic proportions to defeat his most threatening rival yet!

The re-release of these films, comes with all new bonus features. Plus you get a full sneak peek at Kung Fu Panda 3

Get Ready For the Playoffs with Popcorn Factory

- brandy3

We are down to the wire in the playoff series of football. The big game is only a few weeks away. My family and I sit down together every weekend and watch the playoff games. We love it. thats part of our family time together.

One thing we love to do is have a mini party with drinks and snacks etc. Since the kids are with us we have everything kid friendly, including their favorite popcorn. I found this cute NFL inspired popcorn tin on the Popcorn Factory website.

They have so many to choose from including my favorite team Buffalo Bills. Unfortunately they didn’t make the playoffs this year and decided to go with another team we are rooting for the Denver Broncos. The broncos will be playing next week and we will have our Popcorn factory tin rooting for them while eating.

The Popcorn Factory tin comes with 3 varieties of popcorn including original, cheddar and caramel popcorn. The tin also came with a very small popcorn holder which was fun for the kids.

As you cans see my kids got to it before I had he chance too, during this past weekends playoff games. The popcorn is very delicious and make a great appetizer or snack during the playoffs or just anytime. Plus you get to use the tin for all sorts of fun stuff when the popcorn is gone.

Are you ready for the big game? Will you be getting a special NFL tin?

- brandy3 2 Comments

The Real Deal Snacks Veggie Chips are the perfect snack! They are made with 51% real green peas, corn and rice, and there is a serving and a half in every ounce. They are Gluten free, kosher, non-GMO and have 80% less fat than potato chips.

DSCN2494

The real deal veggie chips come in three different varieties, original, Aged White Cheddar, and Sriracha.

DSCN2496

The packages come in 6oz packages as well as individual bags for the original only.

I was a bit skeptical that anyone in my family would like these because they are so picky, but I am on a mission to eat healthier so I wanted to try them.
I was surprised everyone loved them even my kids liked them. My husband wanted to make sure he wasn’t being punched and that these were healthier so he compared the ingredients and nutrition facts to our regular bag of tortilla chips. They are so much healthier and better for you. He was really impressed by that and the taste. Let me tell you that doesn’t happen very often.

One of my favorite ways to stay in shape is by playing Just Dance on the WII, and what better way to kick off the new year than with Just Dance 2016.

What do you think of the Disney Movies 2016 line up? Are you excited, upset? anything you really want to see?

We are dying to see Finding Dory this year my kids loved Finding Nemo and we have been waiting since it was announced over a year ago.

My kids are also excited for Zootopia just because it has Sloths in it. LOL! Their favorite animal, the trailer is so funny.

One movie I am looking forward to seeing as a adult is Alice Through The Looking Glass. I love Alice In Wonderland and Tim Burton is amazing and brings his movies to life through his artist expression.

Let me know what you guys think in the comments.



9 Things For The New Year

- brandy3

It’s 2016 and with new year brings cluttering out the old and preparing for the new. Here are 10 things for the new year that most people forget. Most of these are just basic reminders.

1. If there is anything that has been driving you crazy for months get it done now. A loose door knob, a broken chair leg. Fix them now or change them whatever it may be. It will help save your sanity in the new year.

2. Change smoke/Carbon Monoxide alarm batteries. Usually people do this with daylight savings time, but if you haven’t now is the time to do it.

3. Clean out expired items. I ignore things in my cupboards unless I use them. Now that it’s 2016 start cleaning out cupboards, makeup bags and more. Some things you should throw out include.

  • expired medication (better to recycle these at a local pharmacy)
    expired food, yes check those cans sitting in cupboards too.
    expired makeup

    4. Organize: My kids got a lot of new stuff for Christmas so now we are organizing and rearranging to make it look less cluttered.

    5. Take your car in for a oil change or maintenance.

    6. Get your carpets cleaned. I can’t tell you how much traffic my carpets see. We clean them at least every few months, but start the year off with cleaning them.

    7. Start to plan out appts and your schedule. I have always been a last minute person and lately it hasn’t been working out as doctors get booked out for months.

    8. Just say NO, 2016 is the year you can finally just say no to everything that has been holding you back. Don’t be afraid

    9. Finally just take a break and tell your family you love them and think about everything you are looking forward to doing with them in the new year.



    • Children’s Place Winter Fashions

    - brandy3

    Winter is here but it has been unseasonably warm, specially here in the north east. While my kids love snow they are happy they don’t have to get out the winter gear just yet. The Children’s Place has some of the cutest clothes just in time for the winter and holiday season.

    For the girls sparkles are definitely in this year.

    DSCN2267

    and of course leggings

    DSCN2273

    and for the boys plaid id definitely in.

    DSCN2263

    The Children’s Place has so many different looks and outfits to choose from. My daughter loved the complete outfits and that they could choose either the skirt or the leggings with their sparkly shirt and it would still look good.
    My son was very impressed with the outfit and how warm it was, the pants were a bit big but he says they are more comfortable that way.
    They have tons of stuff to gear up for the cold weather including winter boots, gloves, and tons of fashionable winter outfits to choose from.

    Right now The Children’s Place is having 50-60% off winter clearance including other incredible deals. Gear up for the winter here.

    - brandy3

    It’s 2016 and what better way to ring in the new year with Shopkins Season 4. Shopkins have been a popular toy for years,and they are only getting more popular. Right of the heels of season 3 being released this summer, they just introduced Shopkins Season 4.

    These new addition Shopkins are so cute and new categories have been added to the mix, like gardening, Party Time, and more. There new feature special edition is Petkins, They are cute Shopkin with pet faces.

    DSCN2484

    This year is totally different than in past seasons, the packs are designed and situated different this year. Including the blinds which are no longer in yellow bags, unless you get the 5 pack. 12 packs now have clear blind bags as well as the 2 packs.

    In addition to Shopkins Season 4, there are some new fun play sets and Shoppie dolls to add in the Mix.

    Screen Shot 2015-12-01 at 3.23.48 PM

    Play sets there are just to many different things to announce. They have a Cupcake Queen cafe out, as well as other play sets.

    They even have new blind bags coming out for food fair sets, that feature season 1, 2 and 3 different colored characters.

    I’ll be honest though as I like the originals and plan on sticking to that.

    In addition to the Food Fair sets, there is a new set with Candy Shopkins.

    There are 2 new Shoppe dolls being introduced. Donatina Donuts Delight playset is now available at Toys R Us, and Peppa Mint will be available soon (even though some people have already found her). Pictured above!

    Like many of you out there, I am having the hardest trouble finding these items. I got lucky one time and found Season 4 at Walmart, took a few and left the rest for others. Unfortunately my good deed did no good as the next person cleared the shelf.

    Season 4 is online at Toys R Us and Amazon.com

    Disclosure: Nothing was received for this post. Everything featured was purchased by me solely.
