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

Oh Happy Day! Our Little Man turns 4!

So Today is THE day.

Our little Man is turning 4 in just 6 short hours!

Hard to believe that four years ago we were in a hospital room waiting for him to arrive and see what he looked like.




I do want to thank Lizzy for walking the halls with me four years ago as we waited for labor to progress. Your friendship means the world to us, and we love you so very much! I will always cherish those memories, and the hours we spent together as we waited for Logan.

I also want to thank my Mommy for being brave enough to be in the hospital room with us. We love you and we're very thankful Logan has you for a Grandma. Even though we live a state away you are a Major part of Logan's life and always will be.

And the final Person who was there on that day.....


My lovely Husband.

Thank you for giving me such a wonderfully booger headed little boy. (And of course for staying during almost the entire labor/delivery... except for that bit when you had to rush home to pick up the hospital bags ;] ) <3 You two are the most important guys in my life.

And this concludes your yearly dose of sappyness. For those who were there during the Labor/Birth of Little/Big Logan four years ago.

I love you all.

Birthday Pictures to come later this week.

Final Review for Private Selections Foods!

So this is my last review for the Private Selection BzzAgent campaign. I'm very glad I decided to break the products up and try them individually on different nights. I think it helped me with reviewing each item.

The final Private Selection product we tried was the Pepperoni Thin Crust pizza.

Let me start by saying it looks pretty much like every other frozen pizza out there. It has a good amount of pepperoni's on it, and a good amount of cheese as well.

The pizza cooks really quickly and cools down quickly, so if you're looking for something fast this would be it.

**Be sure to watch it closely though as it does turn brown quickly if you're not paying close attention**

Upon tasting the pizza, it honestly tastes the same as most other frozen pizza's. Which is neither good or bad I guess as it didn't taste horrible... It was just okay.

One of those if it's there, sure I'll eat it, if it's not, I wont really miss it, kinds of foods.

I'm on the fence on whether or not we'll be trying a new pizza, maybe one with more crust as the 'Thin' crust does kind of resemble a cracker like taste once it cools.

I'm going to give the pizza 3 stars simply because it wasn't horrible, but it wasn't amazing.

Over all My experiences with Private Selection have been decent and I'm glad we were able to try out new foods. We will be buying the Deserts again and maybe if we ever get brave enough possibly try out a different appetizer/pizza combonation.

BzzAgent/Private Selection Review PART 2!

So I tried out the Chicken Trumpet appetizers from Private Selections last night as part of the BZZAGENT campaign I'm currently working on..

I have to say, I was very unimpressed with them.
I finished the entire batch, and my husband asked me why on earth I ate them all... I ate them all solely for the review. (Hey you never know, maybe one or two or four were just bad?)

Let me start by saying they look AMAZING on the plate/and on the box.

But that's pretty much it.
They are small, which is fine. Size isn't really the issue here...

Issue ONE: Not enough "Chicken" in the "Chicken trumpet" Seriously, there was about one small piece of chicken in each trumpet, if that.

Issue TWO: Too many peppers. It's like they tried to make up for the lack of chicken by adding excessive amounts of peppers?

Issue THREE: Uh Cheese? Cheese would be good.... It says cheese is there some where, but when I bit into them, I tasted no cheese.. There was one trumpet that had some oily stuff squirt out at me, was that the cheese?

The shells were good though...
I will not be buying the appetizers again, really don't seem worth it to pay for something that's supposed to be a chicken trumpet with cheese, and end up with a side of chicken and a slab of peppers.

So far not a bad experience, I've tried the Appetizers which get an F. And I've tried the Deserts which get about a B+

Will have my review on the pizza coming shortly.

BzzAgent/Private Selection Review PART 1!

So this is part 1 of my review for Private Selection samples I received as part of a BZZAGENT campaign.

So tonight we tried the Private Selections Desert -Lava Cakes as part of a BzzAgent Campaign.

The cakes were well priced, $4.99 for 4 cakes in one box. They were a decent size as well.
One cake was enough for me, and I do enjoy sweets.

I was not expecting much, since the preparation for the cakes involves heating them in the microwave for 40 seconds.

The cake was good, came out soft, the lava came out nice and hot just like it should have.

The taste was pretty good too, it tasted pretty much like a lava cake should... well minus the ice cream part. The lava was thick and gooey and there was just enough in each cake to last until the very last bite of the cake was gone.

We will more then likely be buying more Lava Cakes from Private selections as they are yummy and fast, and fairly priced.
