Have a Blast This Holiday with Singing Machine - Review #HGG

When I first met my husband, it was quite exciting to find not only did he share the same love for music I had but he was actually very musically talented.  He had produced a CD in his early 20's as the lead singer in a band and was very dependent on surrounding himself with music!  Obviously, we have always been a very musically motivated family and more-so a family that entertains constantly!  We have always found a way to incorporate music into our whole families life. 

Flybar Gets Those Kids Moving This Holiday! Review and #Giveaway #HGG

When I was a child we spent every hour of light we had outdoors, usually riding bikes.  I am always looking for ways to get my kids out and staying active.  When the boys were little we always took them on bike rides but as they've gotten older and we've moved to the country, they don't ride as often at home.  Last year my Mother attempted to purchase a Pogo stick for the very same reason.  While, I was too worried my accident prone son would hurt himself using it, this is how I discovered the brand Flybar.

ArmoGear is This Years Top #HolidayGift for Everyone You Know! #HGG #GiftGuide

I have always heard crazy stories about my Dad's childhood (having four boys in their family) as well as the shenanigans that my husband and his twin brother always got into.  I knew having four children would keep me constantly on my toes and on the go, although not quite the extent.  Now having my own (3) boys, I understand something I never did before.  Boys are a whole different level of craziness and energy!!

Personalized Women's Fashion for Everyone w/ eShakti

Okay, as much as I love being that go to person for product recommendations - I am not into shopping for clothes.  Yes, I think I have style but it is just very different shopping for myself.  I have such an awkward figure since I am so busty on top.  I cannot begin to tell you how excited I am to have stumbled on such a great site such as Eshakti.

Checking Everyone Off Your List w/ Lakeside Collection

        Long before I became a blogger, I discovered a brand which I absolutely loved to buy from.  I can pick out over a dozen items in my home that I still use today (purchased at least a decade ago) from the company Lakeside Collection.  When I became a blogger, this was one of those brands I just had to work with as I knew the quality and selection they had available to the everyday individual.  I truly believed in the brand before I made a career out of judging brands and products.

Christmas Crafting w/ the Kids AND #OrientalTrading

Christmas is always a special time of year for my family and even though we don't celebrate to the extreme that I did as a child, I want to celebrate in a similar magical way for my children.  This year has been a bit of a hectic one for my family as we've got a new little addition to our family.  Duncan gets into everything lately and always has us on our toes.  So this year, we've decided to let the kids run the show.  We are crafting it up and letting them decorate how they want around the house.
