We were lucky enough to receive this game for review and my nine year old son hasn't stopped playing it. He loves this game. It's good exercise and alot of fun. It's kind of like, a cartoon version of "Indiana Jones" with each game a new adventure. You can even dress in costumes for each new game.

Mamavation Monday

I've been slacking lately!!! I really need some motivation! I need to make the time to exercise. I know I would feel better about myself and I really want to lose those 10 pounds. I know... it's the same old...same old... But- Today's the day!

I haven't been doing much of my exercise routines lately. I got on the Wiifit today and it said it had been 32 days since my last time. I used to weigh in daily- good news... I lost 1.5 pounds since the last time I was one there. But- that's after I gained a bit too. With the Holidays soon approaching and that means those special treats and desserts I love, I need to make sure that I'm moving and working it off and that I don't gain anymore weight. I really want to look great and I need to tone up for that.

I love the Mamavation campaign and Support it gives to all of us. Rather if you need to lose 10 pounds or 100 pounds, the support is there. This weeks blogging carnival sponsor is Subway. Mmmm- I love their turkey sub!

This week it's the Commit to Fit Challenge. For our Commitment: I think that a Great start is for the whole Family to eat healthy and exercise. We love to do fun activities and play sports. We enjoy the fun exercise games on the Wii and we are looking forward to getting some new games. We can't wait to try the new JustDance2 Game- hopefully Santa will get us this and I would like the Zumba and the EA Sports Active2 games too for the Wii. We like to have alittle competition and see who gets the best score,it makes it even more fun!
Sometimes, you don't even realize, that it's exercise.

This week, we will have some family fun competitions playing our favorite wii games. I'm the best at Hula Hooping! (So far- at my house anyways!)Kylee's the Dance champ!- you should really see here shake her thing! Connor's just alittle bit younger but he can hold his own. Pete- on the other hand- he needs some work. (LOL) He is good at the fishing and hunting games though.

I'm not too worried about eating all the Turkey and desserts on Thanksgiving because I walk alot of it off on Friday-Shopping!

Thank you to MomSelect and Mattel for sending us alot of goodies to have a great party. We had a Toy Story Party and all the guests had so much fun!! We watched the movie and played withe the new Toy Story 3 Action Links Stunt Sets.



Inspired by scenes from the film, the ACTION LINKS Stunt Sets allow kids to re-live their favorite Toy Story 3 moments while piquing their imaginations to create new adventures. Kids can build their very own "Toy Story" universe or recreate iconic scenes from the film. The five distinct stunt sets are a blast on their own or can be linked together for the ultimate interactive action adventure.

They have over 500 flavors of natural lip balm and offer tons of label choices. These lip balms are really good. They smell amazing and each one lasts a long time. After putting on this lip balm my lips feel great. This has really helped to keep my lips from drying out and avoided them from getting chapped.

MyLipStuff.com has a large assortment of products for men, women and kids. They have many different labels for their products. They have CharitaBalms that sell for $3.00 with $1.50 of the proceeds going to a charity.

At first look, children will see a delicious cupcake but will then be surprised by the pet they find snuggled inside!

My daughter is 12 years old, she generally has out grown the love she had for stuffed animals, so i thought. I had just received a box in the mail containing these Petcakes for review. I thought that they were really cute myself, but when she seen them, her eyes lit up!! She grabbed "Twinkle Sprinkles" and said "He is So Cute!! I want him!!! Can I have him, please!?!" I was shocked, only because I thought that the younger ones would be the ones wanting and loving these Petcakes. Guess what, even the older kids want these!!! They are not only cute and adorable but they are made of great quality. They have ones that are more girly but I think that even the boys will like these. Especially great for pet lovers. These are recommended for 3 years old and up. I'm sure they are going to be a big hit!!! These make a great Christmas Gifts or stocking stuffers.

Beecology Review -Great All natural Products

Beecology brings the best of nature to you in a complete line of sulfate-free and paraben-free products for your skin, hair, and lips. Their SLS-free shampoo and conditioner, beeswax lip balm, honey hand and body cream, and natural bar soap let you pamper yourself from head to toe the healthy way.

Beecology is family owned and operated, and they make all of their products themselves. They create them in small batches to ensure that every item meets high standards. Their natural bar soap, beeswax lip balm, natural body wash, and SLS-free shampoo and conditioner are crafted from pure ingredients that they've chosen for their effectiveness and their safety. To put it simply, they wouldn't ask their customers to use anything they wouldn't use themselves.

The honey and beeswax in their products come from their family farm, where they tend to the bees themselves. They know how natural their products are, because they see them through every step of the manufacturing process.
Buzz Balm is soothing and healing lip balm made of all-natural ingredients that makes dry, chapped lips soft and healthy. Açaí Oil, a mega-antioxidant, gives it its healing properties. This Buzz Balm moisturizes and soothes dry chapped lips. It smells good with it's minty scent and is great for adults and kids alike. Buzz Balm "Super Sting" Peppermint Lip Balm sells for $2.99 and works great.


Original Honey Hand & Body Cream
It took 111 formulations before they landed on the perfect hand and body cream. One ingredient in all versions was Cupuacu , from a tree in the Amazon Basin. It has tons of antioxidants and wonderful rejuvenating effects on skin. It also has marvelous Shea butter, along with olive oil and honey to ensure that this cream smoothes, softens, alleviates redness and moisturizes like no other. To lock in that moisture, they've added propolis extract—earning bees yet another ingredient credit.
I love this lotion!!! This has a slight honey scent, perfect for those not liking the harsh perfume or stronger scents. This lotion is pretty thick and Alittle bit goes along way. It really makes my hands feel soft and I really like that it is not at all greasy. This Original Honey Hand and Body Cream sells for $12.99.


I really like their products!! Beecology's natural bar soap and other skincare and hair products have won rave reviews from customers and experts alike. These would make great gifts or stocking stuffers. You'll feel even better about your purchase knowing that they donate 10 percent of their profits to charity through the SweetYear.org foundation.


*Disclosure: Beecology sent me the Buzz Balm and a sample size Original Honey Hand and Body Cream for free for the purpose of this review. This is my honest thoughts and opinion.*

Veteran's Day-Salute our Nation's Hereos

Salute to Our Nation's Heroes - Veteran's Day honors the courage and patriotism of all men and women who have served in the United States armed forces. In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11, Armistice Day; it became a national holiday in 1938. Congress changed the name to Veteran's Day in 1954 and President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the bill into law, "to honor veterans . . . a day dedicated to world peace."

11/11/11 Tradition - In 1921, an unknown World War I American soldier was buried in Arlington National Cemetery, the nation's highest place of honor. These memorial services took place on November 11, which was the anniversary of World War I's end, and were observed at 11:00 a.m - the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month

Throughout the country, observances are held in the form of prayer services, rallies, parades, patriotic speeches, assemblies, and grave-side flag displays.

I would like to Say Thank You and Honor All of Our Veterans today. I support our Troops and I'm praying for each and everyone of You. God Bless!!!

Scandle Shimmering Body Candle Review

Scandle LLC, the leading manufacturer and wholesaler of the finest quality massage candles and all natural spa beauty products releases the first-ever, patent-pending Shimmering Lotion Candle for Holiday 2010.

Made from the same all natural ingredients, The Scandle Shimmering Lotion Candle will not only provide hydration for the skin but will provide the added benefits of giving skin a natural shimmer, masking wrinkles and skin imperfections by deflecting light, while simultaneously adding aroma and ambiance to any setting.

The Scandle is a candle that burns at 2 degrees above body temperature to produce a soothing oil for romantic massage, manicures/pedicures, or as a daily moisturizer.

Scandles come in over 18 fragrances (including 2 limited-edition holiday fragrances) and are packaged in refillable/reusable canisters and sustainable packaging.



Scandle's Shimmering Travel Candle is in a square lightweight tin for easy application and sells for $13.95. This comes with a Silicone band that can be removed after use and used as an eco-wrist band reminder to "Reduce. Reuse. Recycle." This Burns for 15-30 Hours.


I receieved the Scandle Shimmering Travel Candle and it's Amazing!!! The Warm Vanilla Sugar scent smells so good. I love the smell of the candle, even when it's not lit. I lit the candle to check it out and pamper myself. (My puppy was trying to get it- he thought it was a sweet treat for him to eat.) So, after the candle burned for around 30 minutes or so, I blew it out and rubbed it on my hands. Oh- let me tell you, it felt so nice!! It made my hands super soft SO then I rubbed it on my elbows and feet. Wow!! It made my elbows and feet (the driest parts of my body)feel so soft and silky. I just love this Candle. It is my favorite candle yet. I love how it smells so good and you can use it to make your skin smell and feel so good too. It's like a massage in a jar or tin. How cute is that!! This would make a Great Gift!!! (And don't forget the Great Price!!!)

Want more great products, check out the Scandle Store.

Stride Everday Panties Review & Giveaway

Feel confident in your STRIDE Everyday panties because they’ve unveiled the first-ever underwear collection with patented technology built right in to offer discreet protection. No more pantiliners to contend with, just wash and wear.

The complete STRIDE Everyday line includes five stylish options - from a Seamless panty to a Lacy Thong - providing an array of choices for women who want the freedom, comfort and confidence to wear their prettiest panties every day.



“Research shows that most women will experience some sort of light leaks in their lifetime,” explains STRIDE Everyday founder Wendy Spencer. “Whether it’s a new mom looking for a cost-effective solution that helps her feel like a woman again, or an avid runner looking for comfortable protection while she’s on the treadmill, STRIDE Everyday offers a range of solutions for all kinds of women.”

It’s great to see that people are finally talking openly and candidly about light leaks – something that 1 in 3 women will experience in their lifetime. You are not alone! Don't worry about laughing or sneezing. See how STRIDE is helping women live with confidence all day, every day...one stride at a time.



The machine-washable panties feature patented multi-layer fabric technology, designed to wick away and absorb up to an ounce of moisture, and naturally deodorize for a fresh feeling all day long. The inner liner is leak proof and breathable to protect the most stylish outfits from "accidents".

STRIDE Everyday panties are environmentally-responsible and wallet friendly. Explains Spencer: “our research shows that STRIDE Everyday can save women more than $125 per year, compared to daily disposable pantiliner usage*. They can also help reduce the billions of disposable pads and pantiliners sent to landfill every year.”

Being a woman and a mother, sometimes I need alittle extra protection. I received a pair of STRIDE Everyday French Cut briefs to try out for myself. These were one of the most comfortable pair of underwear I have worn lately! I like the French Cut style, they rise on the leg for a flattering profile and elongates the leg. The full derriere coverage helps to minimize the visible panty lines. These were very soft feeling and having the built in liner kept me dry. They washed well and still feel so comfortable while providing that extra protection. The price is very reasonable and they offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

STRIDE Everyday panties range in price from $14.99 to $24.99 and can be purchased online or at Kinney Drugs.


You can Save 30% on orders over $35 by using the code MOMMY007 at StrideEveryday.com (code expires Nov. 30, 2010)

Or Win it!! One of my lucky readers can win themselves a pair of Stride Everday Panties.

Carmex Giveaway (+$50 Value) & Skin Care Review

Giveaway now Closed. Congrats to Nape-for Winning.
I'm a Carmex Blog Squad Member!!! Yeah-I'm so excited. I'm going to be reviewing and sharing some information about the Great Carmex products over the next few months.

For over 70 years, people have come to love the healing power of Carmex lip balms.
What Keeps your lips Healthy Now... Makes your skin Happy!! (New!)Carmex Skin Care is here!!!

The Healing Lotion is for everyday use, while the Healing Cream is intended for more intensive healing.







Carmex Healing Lotion
The 5.5-ounce Healing Lotion features aloe and vitamin E to moisturize, heal and protect skin from dryness. It has a light, pleasant scent and is formulated for daily healing and moisturizing.
I really like this new lotion. You can use this daily, apply anywhere your skin feels dry. I have been using this on my hands and it coats my skin going on so smooth. It leaves my hands feeling soft and I love that it absorbs fast so you don't get a greasy feel.

Carmex Healing Cream
The 4-ounce Healing Cream is a thicker, more concentrated formula that penetrates deep into the skin to help repair extremely dry, cracked skin. It features nine concentrated healing and moisturizing ingredients and can be used anywhere on the body. It is particularly effective on areas that typically get very dry, like the hands, feet, elbows and knees.
This is to be used on your driest skin, like my elbows and feet. I have been using this for about a week now, and really can notice a huge difference. This is concentrated, so alittle amount goes a long way. This is also non-greasy and I like the light clean scent it has. This has really helped to repair my dry skin and I love the price.

Beyblade Let it Rip House Party

They Came. They "Let it Rip!" They had a great Time!!!

My son and his friends absolutely love Beyblades Metal Fusion. Since, having this Beyblades House Party,about a month ago, my son and his friends have been playing with their Beyblades all the time. They love to practice spinning them when alone. They love to "battle" when they get together. They like to see who's Beyblade will stay spinning the longest. Connor introduced his friends at school to Beyblades and most all of the boys in his third grade class want them too. Connor and his cousin both wanted more Beyblades for their birthdays and I know this is on the Christmas lists as well. I think this is going to be on most boys Wish List!!!
My twelve year old daughter and I even played Beyblades with Connor and they are fun. Let it Rip!! Just pull the rip cord and these spinning tops spin and you can even battle. There's even more fun- You can play online. (Although we haven't tried that yet)
Here's a picture of a few boys and their Beyblades Metal Fusion in action!!

Thank You to House Party and Hasbro for introducing us to Beyblades Metal Fusion! They even have the new Beyblade: Metal Fusion animated series on the Cartoon Network.
