Spa Sleepover Party in the making

We are gearing up for a big sleepover party for my daughters Birthday this year. Spa parties have gone over well so we thought we would do another one.

We don't like to share makeup, too many diseases can be spread that way so we try to make sure everyone has their own products to use. The little kits we are making are coming along really well.

These mini salon nail files are great because everyone gets their own, no sharing, and that way they will have one when they go home if they already didn't have one.

These are great for both home and professional use. They work great and fit in your purse or even wallet well for quick fix ups when a nail breaks.



You can find the mini files on Amazon.

These mini blue nail files are 3.5 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. They fit well in your bag or in your pocket. We made the files out of high quality paper. The grits for this file are 120 on one side and 240 on the other. This makes them perfect for natural nails that need a quick fix. 
These file are intended to be used to touch up the nail. It is best used after the shaping has already been done to give your nail that seamless clean look.

Plants love this

Having a bigger garden this year made things a bit more interesting from breaking more ground, to keeping up with weeding, to making sure everything was watered properly. Having a garden hose with a good spray nozzle really helps in this department, not to mention that we can also wash our dog outside if we decided to.

I love the mist for my more delicate plants and the stronger flows for both washing the car, and outside gear. Easy to change between settings. I haven't used them all more than to try them but the mist is by far my favorite.

Loving the Rainforest

 

We are not new to Click-A-Brick. Matter of fact they have become a new favorite. My favorite creation from the Rain Forest series is the Snake.

Our children love to mix and match the colors from the different sets to make even more colorful creations.

Some of my favorites are the dinosaur our daughter made as well as the replica of our family.

As a parent I like toys that are both fun and educational.



You can find the Rainforest Click-A-Brick on Amazon.

What Click-A-Brick has to say about their product.
The Click-A-Brick Rainforest Rascals set is an educational building block set for children aged 4 and up. What makes this product unique is the way the blocks connect to each other. Rather than connecting in just one way, Click-A-Brick's can be connected from all sides and corners; even forming diagonal lines.

This way of building helps children improve motor and dexterity skills as well as their spatial reasoning. The Dino Pals set comes with instructions on how to build an Iguana. The other rascals - Snake, Frog, Cameleon, Turtle - are pictured on the instruction sheet. There are no directions on how to build those because they are supposed to challenge the child to create them on their own after they learn how to make the Iguana. Parental interaction is highly encouraged to better facilitate learning - not to mention some great 1-on-1 time with your child.

Click-A-Brick also helps nurture a child's imagination and creativity by allowing them to build anything they can think of - in 3D. Many different shapes and creations can be made, spurring the child's imagination further with each one. The product is very durable as well; where the child can actually play with the creation they made - or quickly disassemble it to make another.

Creative good fun

\

Our children love the Click-A-Brick Building blocks. This is our third set and each time they are able to build what is suggested as well as adding to their brick collection to make other creations.

These are the kind of toys I like to see my children playing with. Something they create with their own minds, or even by following directions. Both are learning opportunities for your children.

Love the colors and how many ways the pieces can be put together. I am always happy to see what they have made.

Team USA Soccer

One of the things my daughters loves best is playing soccer, sadly she wasn't able to play for the school this year because her physical was after the day they had tryouts. They wouldn't let her try out without her physical.

Luckily she was able to take part in British Soccer this summer as well as looking forward to Basketball season. Soccer will be there next year so we will make the best of the quite time we have before the next sport starts up.

Not playing Soccer for the school doesn't slow her down from wanting to wear soccer apparel or get out there and practice with her sisters when she can. I was able to surprise her with this new Soccer shirt which she loves and will wear to school soon.

Her love of soccer never ceases even when the going gets tough. Look out next year girls because she will be there to have our backs.

This shirt is great for both men, women, and teens. Fits well, washes well, no shrinkage on our end, and looks great.

You can find Team USA Soccer t-shirt on Amazon.


Our Team USA Soccer 1 Nation 1 Team T-shirt T-shirt is printed on a premium fitted 5.3 oz 100% preshrunk cotton t-shirt.
