I participated in an In-Home Party Activation on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Mattel. I received product samples to facilitate my party and a promotional item to thank me for participating. I've loved Barbie my entire life. Heck, I even played with Barbies with the girl next door into my early teen years. Now that I am a mom to girls, I share my love of Barbie when I can. When I was asked to share the new Barbie movie, Barbie and … [Read more...]
Time to Up Our Oral Hygiene Routine | Be a Healthy Habit Hero
by 9 Comments
I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for LISTERINE. I received samples for this review and a promotional item to thank me for participating. As a child, I will openly admit I had a horrible oral hygiene routine. I'm not talking only brushing once or twice a day and skipping the floss... I'm talking I would brush maybe once a week. We had "swish and spit" at school (a weekly activity that all the children … [Read more...]

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. Today was the first day I really felt the crisp chill of fall air... and it excited me! For some strange reason I get this overwhelming urge to bake and cook in the fall/winter. Maybe it's because I'd prefer staying warm inside, or maybe it's something about all the colors that's stirs my … [Read more...]

HopeLine Accessories Benefit Domestic Violence Prevention #VZWBuzz #VoicesHavePower
by 2 Comments
As a member of the #VzwBuzz influencer team, I received the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Note 10.1 tablet with line of service from Verizon. No additional compensation was provided nor did I promise positive feedback. All opinions are my own. I am one of those techies that refuses to use her new device until it's protected. Keeping my devices "fresh" and protected always wins out over my desire to fiddle with my new toy. I've been known to wait … [Read more...]

When Gymboree emailed to let me know that they were introducing a play and sleepwear line inspired by Eric Carle's children's books I couldn't resist. Gymboree's Gymmies/Sleapwear have always been a … [Read more...]

Summer FUN | How We Showed Our #JuicyFruitFunSide A huge thank you to Juicy Fruit for sponsoring today's conversation. All opinions are my own. As August arrived, I realized that our summer was fading fast. Unlike when I was a child, our local schools open their doors in mid August. With the kids taking summer school throughout the month of June, that left us with all of July and half of August to enjoy the sun and make the most of our … [Read more...]
