Angels Pop Up Book Review and Giveaway

Do you believe in Angels? I do and nearly 75% of Americans believe in angels, according to a recent survey by the Pew Forum. Whether you consider angels to be , spiritual guides,divine messengers or the stuff of legend, they are around in today’s world. It has been this way for thousands of years, since the earliest recorded drawings. Angels have mystified and inspired humanity, as showcased in all forms of artistic expression.(Usually we see or think of Angels as humans with wings)
In this breathtaking book by Author, Chuck Fischer he brings to life the most captivating stories of these celestial beings. Fischer’s original art is inspired by classic images from art history and is crafted into astoundingly intricate pop-ups made in collaboration with master paper engineer Bruce Foster.
Angels is divided into three sections: Messengers, A Hierarchy of Angels, and Secular Angels. More than one hundred original illustrations fill the pages of this book, featuring angels from different cultures and traditions around the world dancing to life in three-dimensional tableaux and movable parts. This book is brimming with full-color images and narrative booklets that tells the stories of these angels.

My Review
Wow!!! This is a Beautiful book. I've heard that saying "You can't judge a book by its cover" Well...This book is just as beautiful as its cover. I was amazed when I received this book. It is just breathtaking. I love all the bright and beautiful pages. The artwork is amazing. When you turn the pages, the images just pop out and come to life. You can really learn from this book,the narrative booklets have so much information. This is not a children's book, although children will love to look at this,but they need to use care. These pages pop out with so much detail that you wouldn't want them to rip or ruin this book.
This book would make a beautiful Christmas gift for anyone and especially for those Angel lovers.
**Disclosure: I received a copy of this book from The Hatchette Book Group to use for review purposes.**

All I Want for Christmas is....My Bedroom Makeover

All I Want for Christmas is...My Bedroom Makeover. This is a Contest that TwitterMom's and VisionBedding are having. You can enter too and one luckly winner will recieve a Bedroom Makeover valued at $1000.
If You would like to enter please read all the rules here.
I know most of us could really use that. If You are like me, then the kids have nice bedrooms and yours is way over due. That's how it goes...Being a parent and the kids always come first. I wouldn't have it any other way.
I need a bedroom makeover.... My bedroom isn't a typical bedroom. Or maybe it is.
My bedroom ends up being part of the laundry room, extra storage room, the hide your junk in room. This has got to end. I need to get more organized and have a more presentable room. I'm not going to show you any pictures, that would just be embarrassing to me.(Just picture...clothes all over the bed waiting to be folded, boxes on the floor next to the closet,etc)
Oh the options. There are so many cool and neat things over at VisionBedding.com, I could dream all day as to how my bedroom could look. I love all there stuff. I never knew you could have personalized photo blankets. I love all the wall muruals, especially this one. Wow, Now I am dreaming of the possibilities. I could be here all day...

Drinks for the Seasons

Drinks for the Seasons? This is the Question. Depending on what season we are in, we all like to drink something different or special. I'm kind of plain when it comes to drinks. I love my Diet Coke!!! I don't drink much alcohol but I do like to have an Amaretto Sour occasionally. In the Summer, I love a nice fresh sqeezed glass of lemonade, in the fall I like a glass of Apple Cider,at Christmas time I like to drink Eggnog. My husband likes to drink Beer all year long. What about You? Do you have a favorite drink ?
To celebrate the arrival of our favorite season and the wonderful drinks that come with it, Lenox and TwitterMoms want to know what your favorite drink of the season is, how you make it, and – most importantly – how you present it?
So, Here's mine. I love Hot Chocolate all winter long. It's always better when you top it with whipped cream and try adding some mint. (Mint flavored Hershey kisses work well) I like to drink hot chocolate best while eating Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies, the combination is so yummy. If I'm in a hurry then I just buy the allready made hot cocoa mixes. This is much easier for the kids.
I make my own by simmering milk add in Chocolate syrup and mint kisses, top with whipped cream.
