    Holiday Snacking the Healthy Way with Slammers Giveaway

    December 15, 2017 /

    Holiday snacking is something everyone does. I don’t know about you, but I am stupid busy right now which means my time to prepare nutritious meals and snacks has vanished entirely. The good news though is that healthy snacking doesn’t have to be hard. I’ve found a snack that is perfect for travel, and for busy days running around during the holiday season. Slammers are my go to favourite right now. They are marketed for kids and they are great for in school lunches. But they are also amazing for road trips and holiday travel.

    Metal prints from Posterjack offer a unique way to display your family’s memories. Stunning metal prints give you the ability to showcase your best, most memorable experiences on eye-catching metal. It’s a great new way to make sure your memories last for a lifetime.

    Union Burger To The Rescue #Giveaway #ad

    October 19, 2017 /

    Union Burger to the Rescue. Well, that might be a bit dramatic but frankly every single person I know understands that occasionally meal planning goes out the window. There are nights when the meat isn’t thawed and work is hectic and you are racing the kids to martial arts, or quite simply you are too tired to cook. On those nights your family needs a quick dinner solution. There’s nothing at all wrong with that. This past weekend was a busy one. Like every single weekend ever during the school year. We did the usual roundup of kid’s scheduled activities on Saturday and worked out at the YMCA and then…

    Family Game Night with Yulu Toys – Win 2 Games

    July 26, 2017 /

    Family game night is something we try to do on a regular basis. Ever since my youngest girl was small she has loved games of all sorts. Card games and board games. She finds them calming in some ways, so my husband and I have made it a priority for all of us to play games with her when possible. Now that the girls are older, we don’t get to have as many game sessions as we used to, but recently my youngest child reminded me when she gave me a birthday card that one of her favourite things to do even still is play games with me. So, that made me…
