New Year New Surprise Box!

Hey neighbors!

Here we go with a new box of goodies.  I think this one will last until February 15th.  That will give us plenty of time to add items.

So, we are going to start out with a small pack of stationary.  It has a cute little bear holding a bouquet at the top.  Along the bottom are four rose buds.


Next is a three pack of gel pens.  One black, one silver, and one gold.


The last item, for now at least, is a sticker play set.



I have some other fun things planned to add in the coming days, so be sure to stop by on a regular basis so you won't miss anything.

I will add things to the box as we go along and when I do I will add new ways to enter!  Ready?  Let's get started!

The mandatory entry is to give me an one idea for a fun family night.  After you enter be sure to share the giveaway with others.

We recently took our kids roller skating. Yes, four wheels. It was something my hubs and I both did as a kid. They had a blast! They had a bit of trouble getting used to the skates since they are so different than blades! But it only cost $5 per person, so it was well worth $20 for that much fun and nostalgia!

I think that playing board games together and baking cookies or cupcakes would be a fun family night.

Well,my son has autism so family fun nights are a little different for us. We like to blow up a kiddie pool and fill it with warm water and bubbles and bring it into the kitchen so he can "swim" and I usually put my feet in and my husband sometimes gets in the pool!

Thank you!

How about a Country Fair style night at home? You could have country fair type foods: taco or turkey legs, corn on the cob, and caramel corn or apple turnovers for dessert. Maybe each pair of family members could be in charge of setting up a carnival style game: ring toss, bean bag toss, dart game balloon pop, cupcake walk/musical chairs, etc. Prizes could be : a day off from a chore, have a sibling do your chore, or little trinket style prizes. Sounds like fun to me!

I commented on your lovely eagle photos on your new site!

We go out to eat as a family and then play laser tag as a family. Gets out a lot of our son's energy and is a lot of fun.

When our 4 children were still at home, we decorated the black & white marbled steno tablets. They each had their own & got to decorate it in their own unique way. Then, at least once a week, we'd put them in a bag & everyone drew one out. You then had to write something nice to or about the person whose tablet you drew out. They still have them & cherish them. So for one family fun night, you could decorate your tablets.

We play hide and seek at night with flashlights.
Lissa Crane said…
Once a week we do a family night and let the kids choose the dinner, then we cook it together and the dessert, we make it together, and then a movie or game to play. We all look forward to it every weekend! We even do our food shopping with it in mind!

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child.  Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First  TV.  Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age.  And it works!  Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life.  Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words.  Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing.  There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along.  The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish.  Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer.  Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

 Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June. Our family has been taking the time between now and then to be together and remember what a light mom was. I came on towards the end of last year and was planning on fully moving my interviews and review to this website. I intend to to so partially to keep mommas beautiful website going. Thank you all so much for your love and support over the years. ~Mercy
