Another Favorite thing: Fast Flats!!

Okay, I want to start off by saying.. this is by far one of the best inventions. ever.

I do wish I had thought of this but i will not complain! These by Dr. Scholl's are amazing and very great to have.



I am totally bring these with me on New Years Eve. I know my shoes i am wearing are going to incredible but lets be honest by the end of the night I will be dying to take them off. All women I know right now are shaking their hand in approval and thinking of the places they would have used them or where they will be bringing them next.

I got mine at Target so go grab you a pair and don't worry about your feet. You will just enjoy looking fabulous!

Give Back this Holiday

I know this year the money might have been tight, you want to give but you dont have the funds?? Well here is a way you can give that loved one a gift and give to those less fortune or your favorite charity. Here are ideas.

How about give an oranment made by your favorite designers like Sarah Jessica Parker or Gwen Safani?? ( $20-$50) at HSN



100 percent of the profits, no less than 30 percent of the purchase price of each ornament, will be donated to St Jude Children's Research Hospital

How about a Ring for the women in your family. Even for the men- tell them that men celebrities wear them too!) With each purchase, $70 goes to the Save the Children Foundation. From Bvlgari.



Give for the kids that they can hold while you read their favorite book to them. Also, Build-A-Bear Workshop will donate 50¢ to First Book to provide new books to children from low-income families and 50¢ to the Build-A-Bear Workshop Bear Hugs Foundation to support other literacy and education programs. Build-A-Bear Workshop.





I know you will be baking those cookies to share and of course leave for Santa. Why not make yummy cookies and give to your favorite at the same time? or how about giving to the ofice staff so you can start pay it forward?? Try this by Baking for Good.



Fifteen percent of each purchase benefits a charity of your choice, including a wide range of women’s causes.


Now, of course there are so many more ways to give this season. So, just remember when you are out buying for your friends and family, there are other out there that would love to be able to have a great holiday season as well, so why not help any way you can. If its giving coats to the cold or homeless. Giving to cancer research so those who are effected can spend next Christmas with their loved ones. Or how about those men and women outside ringing the bells for the Salvation Army, drop a few cents or dollars in there to help. When you are t the toy store, why not pick up something extra for those kids who cant wait for Santa to come! Anything you do will be a big help and not only make someones holiday but give you a great feeling.

Merry "giving" Christmas Everyone!

Bucket LIst: Leesburg Animal Park

Summer Bucket List:

Leesburg Animal Park

duck...duck..goose

awww....

no fear...

He totally wanted to sit with me...riiiight

One Sunday afternoon my parents, Liam and I went on a trip to the animal park...it was hot but was definitely a lot of fun. LJ loves animals and couldn't wait to pet them!

His favorite part was when we got to going to the free roaming area...he had absolutely no fear of the animals.. he got in their faces and just chased them. The sheep was his favorite but they had no interested in them.. they only like Gammy because she had that cup of food...let me tell you, you want to get rid of that food right away.. those animals will not leave you alone until you give them everything.. even the cup! Some even jump up on you to get it.. i am not a fan of that.. but what can you do. One sheep in particular was so greedy.. we refused to give him even more than he had! HA!

We took a wagon ride down to the big pond, that was fun. You can fish out there...they were even having a competition at weekend..I am sure GPop was dying to fish but he controlled himself. On, the way back to the we got to see the Zebras :) When we got back, we left LJ play on the playground, he loved it.. it was very hard to get him to leave but he did a great job!

I would definitely bring him back there...when it is not so hot...it was great for all ages... all you moms out there...go check it out! It would be a great half day trip! ( they even having a changing table there outside..nice :) )

Fun Deals Everyday..

What do I normally do when LJ is sleeping...well, I could be invent something..work out..study...nope none of those things...I look and find new blogs and deals and giveaways...yup.. it has become something I really enjoy...

One day I was googled and came across this website:

www.ecomom.com

Now me being me.. I got quite excited by just the name...but as I looked more into this site.. i feel in love...it has everything..for moms-babies-kids...it has become one of my favorite sites to visit. Not only is there a blog that you can read and join. They have a store you can buy some of the coolest and cutest things I have sen and its all good for the environment :)

One of the best things they have though, that I can't wait to get in my email is their Daily Deals...They put together really awesome bundles that you can buy at a discount or other products...the prices are amazing!

I bought the "preschool bundle" it came with banana snacks ( LJ loves himself some banana) a set of eco friendly spoons ( pack of 6) and a book! Cutest.thing.ever! oh yeah and a little thing of hand sanitizer ( which if you know me.. I love). I got all that for $15!! They also shipped it so fast!
