Crowd Tap Sample & Share- Old Navy Sweaters!

So I was selected to sample and share Old Navy sweaters from Crowd Tap. Basically, CrowdTap/Old Navy sent me two coupons, one for myself and one for a friend. We could redeem the coupons at our local Old Navy store for any sweater our little hearts desired! Sound like a blast? It was! I chose my friend Laurel for this sample & share opportunity. We met at our Old Navy store, and got right to work. The store was clean, as always and the staff was very friendly. We roamed around a bit and found a couple sweaters we liked... This was the first one I liked..
We continued to look for more to see what the other options were as it didn't seem like a big selection... Silly us we managed to miss the GIANT wall of sweaters right as you walk in the store LOL! Some sweaters were soft, some were scratchy. Some were long, others were short. There was a really nice sweater dress but it was the only one of it's kind in the entire store and it was the wrong size. :( Laurel really liked this sweater:
But realized it has holes in the middle of it. They are small little 'air' holes but she would need to wear something under the sweater and she wasn't too thrilled with that. In the end I ended up going with the first sweater I liked. It is soft, nice and thick, and I can wear a tank top under it and be nice and cozy! Perfect sweater I think. Laurel chose a similar sweater but with a different color pattern.. I just forgot to get her final picture. :( Over all, it was a great experience and I had a good time :) Very thankful to CrowdTap and OldNavy for this Sample & Share opportunity!

Glade Product test for BzzAgent Campaign!

So I have been trying out Glade products as part of a BzzAgent Campaign.. I have to say the lavender is not my favorite at all, but the pineapple mangosteen is wonderful! I love the smell of the spray, and plan on buying the oil difuser refill for the pineapple mangosteen scent as soon as possible.

BzzAgent Campaign: Sobe Life Water!

My BzzKit for the Sobe Life Water BzzAgent Campaign came! I have been waiting to try out this Sobe Life Water campaign since I signed up a few weeks back.. The sample I received was for the new flavor Mango Mandarin.. I was a little skeptical at first because I'm not too big on Mango flavors. This drink is nicely done though, a great mix between the Mango and Coconut flavors. I gave some to Logan, and he very quickly drank his letting me know we should buy more. The low calories are nice, only 80 calories in the entire bottle, and the bottle is certainly big enough to break the servings in to two big servings or one big serving and two smaller servings (Which is how I did it since I split it with Logan) I do recommend the new Sobe Life Water to those looking for a new great tasting water drink. I also received a Sobe Chap stick in my BzzKit. Not sure if the Chap stick will be hitting store shelves though? I certainly hope so, as soon as I tried it out my lips were so smooth and soft.. That was over 60 minutes ago and the chap stick is STILL lingering on my lips. LOVE IT!

May already???

Can't believe the last time I posted was right after we adopted Menolly... Look how little she was! She is growing up quickly.. and loving her Logan more and more.
I have been busy working on some new blankets for Logan.. Trying out the Rag quilt pattern.. and I LOVE IT! These blankets are so much fun to make! I made one for Logan's Bed, and then one for Logan to take to preschool/daycare.
I'm also working on my very first Granny Square blanket... It's coming along and has a little more done to it then this, (about 4 more rows added on since this picture)
It's all so much fun :) We are in the middle of moving right now though, lots of packing and cleaning to do still but hopefully it will all be over by the start of June... I can not wait to live in a HOUSE again.. Apartment/Duplex living just isn't for me. I'm also currently doing some new BzzCampaigns!! No reviews yet, but some things to look forward to over the coming weeks... -Sobe BzzCampaign (should be here any day now! ) -New Private Selection BzzCampaign (Just signed up a few days back!) -Dr. Scholls massaging inserts! (Just signed up today!) All reviews for the campaigns will be posted to my blog so stay tuned for those! Also some will have coupons/discounts etc, so friends will be getting goodies as well!! Not sure in which order the reviews will be posted but I will try and get them up in a timely fashion :)

Friday Wishing.

So we are all anxiously awaiting Friday. A man out in CJ has a few black lab pups he wants to find good homes for, and has said he will hold on to the last little baby girl for me so I can do all my errands in one big swoop.

The pup is just barely past the 8 week mark, and such a chunk. I have set up a vet appointment to have the pup checked out shortly after I pick her up. Keep trying to tell my son we need to make sure pup is healthy before we can bring her home. He keeps telling me "Yeah we have to take puppy to the doctors to get her shots and make her big and strong!" lol.

Here are a few pictures of the pup.



And pup with her mom/brothers.



Keep your fingers crossed for us. Hopefully by about noon on Friday we will have a happy/healthy new family member.

Snow Ball fights

So While my son's Godmother was in town this weekend, they decided they love the new town, and want to start their family up here! If all goes well they should be moving our way this August... Which is wonderful! They also mentioned they were interested in a Labrador puppy as well.. So we got them signed up for the same litter as us... Hopefully our new furry family member will be able to have one of his/her little siblings around town. How nice would that be?!

Here are a few pictures from this past weekends snow ball fight...






Ah fun times...
The next few months will be busy.. Hopefully we will be able to find a HOUSE for rent out here soon..

I need to update more often...

So Christmas has come and gone and now we are in to a brand new year!

This year will bring lots of changes for our family... Hopefully a new (used) car... A move to either a two bedroom or three bedroom house with a back yard so we can add a new family member this fall..... That's right folks, we're getting a Puppy.

Couldn't resist. :)

After much research we have decided on a Labrador, and after further research we believe we have found the perfect breeders for us. We are signed up to hopefully have our new addition some time around October/November 2012. :)

Logan is extremely excited and keeps saying he wants a black colored pup.. We'll see how he feels in a few months.

For now, there will be lots of waiting until the breeders are ready to begin for this year. Then more waiting to see if the pups take... So exciting!

Of course we will be staying busy with trying to get a different car, and trying to find a home with a backyard for our new addition. We are allowed to have dogs here, but we would prefer our pup to have his/her own backyard to run around in.

I will update with pictures from the Holidays probably tomorrow as hubby is playing his game online currently
