Holiday Contest and Sweeps had the pleasure to review the Acu-Rite Pro 5-in1 Weather Station with HD Display and Lightning Detector. A great group of fellow blogs have joined me in posting and promoting this amazing Weather  Station from Acu-Rite. Acu-Rite will provide one lucky reader whom resides in the Continental United States and are 18+ years of age a chance to win one of these amazing Weather Stations. Let's Take A Look At The  5-in-1 Weather Sensor
 The 5-in- Weather Sensor is the brain of this Weather Station. This sensor hub collects and sends information to your High Resolution Weather Station HD Display. It will transmit  your accurate Rainfall amounts through the Rainfall Collector Funnel, equipped  with a Debris Filter to keep junk from your rain collector funnel. The  Internal Temperature and Humidity Sensors are in inside but provide accurate results that are sent to your HD Display. There is also a Internal Aspirating Fan that draws ambient air into the sensor to reduce solar radiation heating, resulting in more accurate  temperature measurements. This sensor also has a Wind Speed Anemometer that provides accurate wind speed measurements.
This sensor comes with a mounting bracket  that allows you attach your 5-1 Sensor in just about any location, but for the best results you do not want to have something  that would block you wind reading . To get the ideal reading, you should mount your Sensor at least 5ft off the ground in an open area and the National Weather Service recommends that you mount it 33 ft high for optimal performance The Sensor requires 4 AA Batteries, so before any mounting is done make sure your batteries are installed. A high quality Alkaline or Lithium batteries are the best for performance. Re-chargeable batteries are not recommend  The 5 -IN-1 Pro Weather Station comes with a Lightning Detector Sensor.
This sensor comes with a integrated Hanger that easy placement This wireless sensor
flashes when it is sending Lightning information to the companion unit This sensor
requires four AA Batteries and again you will want to use a good quality Alkaline Battery
or Lithium Battery. Once your battier are in your sensor can start detecting lightning
strikes up to 25 miles away. All the above information is gathered and sent to the HD Display  in your home to give you up to the minute weather results for you area.
 High Resolution Weather Station Display
The Display collects date sent to it from the 5-in-1 Sensor along with the Lightning
Detector. This information is displayed in a High Definition Display making easier 
for you to read and understand. Your Display will show you current Outdoor Humidity,
Current Feel-Like Temperature, Barometric Pressure,12 to 24 Weather Forecast, Time
Date and Day of the Week, Rainfall Rate/Most Recent Rainfall and Rainfall History, and
Today's Rain Indicator.
Your Display will also display current wind speed and direction. Indoor and Outdoor
Temperature along with your current indoor and outdoor humidity readings. This display
also will let you know if any of your batteries are starting to go low. The display comes
with it's own power Adapter.

KAMOTA beauty makeup sponges

My daughters are in love with these makeup sponges so I had to find more at a good price to make everyone happy including getting myself a new set. Even my 9 year old wants one and she doesn't even wear makeup, she just knows the other girls love them so that should mean she wants one too. Funny how children think.

I love that this set comes with 3 full eggs and 3 eggs with a flat side. I love the flat eggs for getting near to my eyes, lips, ears etc, while the full eggs are used all over my face and neck. Very soft to use on your delicate facial skin.

Remember to wet your sponge so it does not soak up so much makeup that it is wasting it. You will see the sponges are bigger and soften once used in the right way. When I told my daughter they are meant to be wet when used she was amazed and has said it made a big difference in how the product goes on, as well as using a lot less of her product to do the same job she was doing dry.

Magicdo dual tip markers

* Some of the links in the article may be “affiliate links.” This means if you click on the link and purchase the item, I will receive compensation.  



My girls were eyeing these markers as soon as they came in but I quickly told them they are going to be used for my new planner that starts in August 2017. I know I will end up letting them use them at some point but I want to get my play time in first.

These Magicdo dual tip markers are like a paint brush tip on one side with a fine tip on the other side so you can change up the way you want to draw, color, or design your masterpiece.

My main reason for using them is to keep our family organized by color coding our calendar for the next year. Organization is key to keeping everyone moving in the right direction and on time. There are so many things in life that are out of our control it is nice to be able to look at a planner and see what you can control all laid out for you in an easy to read format.

For my girls these would be used for drawing and creating things. I might have to sit down and color a bit with these with them for a little together time on a rainy day or while we are waiting for an appointment to start.
