Have you heard about the incredible documentary called "Bully,Help sign the petition to show this in schools

        Have you heard about the incredible documentary called "Bully," about the bullying epidemic in America. The film recently received an "R" rating, which would mean it couldn't be shown in schools. Watch the trailer and help sign the   petition to change the rating so that it can be shown in the classroom, where it belongs. Sign the petition


 Everyday kids are bullied and they should not have to be. Please join me in signing the petition to help show this to kids to show how bulling effects kids and parents.

Flip Flops as comfortable as a Slipper and Clogs


After 7 days of rain I was so excited to see the sun shinning today. Even more excited to wear my new Willow  flip flops a hush puppy from Grandoe. I love wearing my slippers for the comfort. Grandoe willow  flip flops  fill like a slipper but are actually a flip flop I love the vibrant lavender color along with the adorable plaid pattern they are simply adorable and did I mention super comfy how cute will these be during spring and summer with some Capri's or shorts or even jeans.The lavender and plaid are a great color combo.Also they are made very well so I  expect that they will last a long time when it was raining earlier this week I was curious since they were made from a  micro terry material how would  they hold up to the rain. I went to check my mail box splashing around in the rain wearing my willow flip flops well it was pouring rain and they and i got soaked so as i came back in i let them air dry and they are just fine.So take these to the pool during the summer they will feel great on your feet they do mine and would dry out quickly in the sun.



They also offer these cute Ginger clog design offered in black and white both with a red plaid trim both feature a micro terry foot bed.

Have Trouble Sleeping Sound of Sleep Review (Raffle Copter)


Are you able to just go to sleep my husband can, Me on the other hand it takes me like a hour to fall asleep sometimes longer my mind is constantly turning and worrying about what I did that day or what I need to do.I also have anxiety which my therapist suggested I by some relaxing DVD's to listen too while trying to go too sleep to help relax and clear my mind.


Well I took her advice but I did not get DVD's i ran into a web site called Sound Of Sleep  what is it you ask? Well it's a company that understands my needs that's for sure.They have a Sleep therapy system I was looking for SOUND+SLEEP offers ten (10)  SoundStories — high-quality, mostly natural recordings of relaxing sounds from ocean waves to crackling fires. Its built-in computer and microphone continuously “listen” for intruding noises such as barking dogs,automobiles, overhead airplanes, or loud room mates. In Adaptive Mode, SOUND+SLEEP dynamically adds sounds to the SoundStory and automatically adjusts volume to offer superior sound masking or neutralizing capabilities. All that’s left to hear is a soothing natural sound that minimizes disruptions that disturb or interrupt sleep. As intrusive noises subside, SOUND+SLEEP gradually and automatically returns to normal playback settings.

I also live on a busy street with a lot of traffic and this has really helped me clear my mind and block out sounds that I don't wish to hear and am very glad to report after using it for two weeks now I have never slept better.



The sound from the speakers is unbelievable most machines or DVDs only offer a certain sound the sound of sleeps offers those and many more ten different sounds.Not your normal sounds you always get you do get the basic sounds but they sound amazing you also get the amazing sound of a crackling fireplace,rainfall,white noise,meditation,city and a few more. 
I have tried DVDs in the past and other machines only to find them rather annoying than useful.What makes the sound of sleep better than the rest is. When a sound that brief repeats over and over again, it can actually become irritating — keeping you awake rather than helping relaxation and sleep.


See the Tear drop shaped speaker




 SOUND+SLEEP recordings are longer than any competing sound machine and have hundreds of enhancing sounds that are randomly and algorithmically mixed into the base sound story in real time. As a consequence,their recordings can seem to vary for hours and much more realistic and natural.

Not only did they capture the real sounds of nature their  sound engineering and design teams climbed trees,sat up all night waiting for frogs to croak, and stand outside in thunder storms with high-quality sound equipment to capture the best quality sounds – the authentic sounds of nature. All of our SoundStories employ recorded natural sounds except for the Meditation and White Noise themes.Now that's a dedicated sound team Thanks Guys.

Soda stream review make your own Soda


I am addicted to soda I think it's the carbonated drink it self.I have said since I was little it would be really cool to have my own soda machine and Soda Stream has made that possible.Yep that's right I get to make my own soda,its really easy to do so and they have so many different flavours too choose from like cranberry raspberry,cola,orange and many more first we set it up and placed it where we wanted it to go on the counter.My hubby put in the co2 bottle and added water to the reusable bottle pushed the button to carbonate it and than the hard part was choosing which flavour we wanted to add first.We decided on root beer so he just added the capfull to the reusable bottle and gave it a little shake put the lid on and put it in the fridge and we had some really great tasting rootbeer that we made our selves.What i love how easy it is too use and make and that the flavors contain  no high fructose corn syrup.What's better than root beer soda made by you the rootbeer was so flavorfull we thought this would also be great in the summer time to make root beer floats which we really wanted try out but it's too cold but it was very tempting so soon as it gets warmer  root beer floats are on our soda stream list of too do's.The possibility's are endless. 


DON'T DO SODA DON'T WORRY You can even make your own flavored sparkling water just by adding a few drops of SodaStream's all-natural, unsweetened MyWater flavor essences.

Making your favorite soda, flavored sparkling water or energy drink is simple, with SodaStream's wide variety of over 30 sodamix syrups including dozens of regular, diet and caffeine-free options. Flavors include classics like cola, lemon-lime, and root beer...Exotic fruit flavors like orange mango and diet pink grapefruit...Energy drink, sparkling iced teas and cocktail mixers. Each bottle of sodamix makes about 12 liters of soda (about 33 cans!) for around 25 cents per 12-ounce can. 

The co2 refills are available at local retailers or you can order online for about 29.99 dollars which is a great price think about how much you spend a month buying drinks.I know we by a lot for four people considering you can make Tea,sparkling water,soda, even energy drinks as we use this every day and possabilties are endless of drinks you make if you check there website they even give you a drink recipe which lets you mix certain flavours to get another great tasting drink.


SodaStream carbonating bottles are specially designed, high pressure-resistant bottles for use with SodaStream soda makers. SodaStream PET carbonating bottles are BPA-free and may be reused for up to 2 years. The glass carafes included with the Penguin soda maker may be used indefinitely, with proper care.Every SodaStream bottle and carafe comes with a fizz-preserving cap that helps to keep drinks fresh and fizzy longer than store-bought bottles.

Irresistible Gourmet Popcorn (Raffle Copter)





I don't know about you but we love popcorn in our house we love to watch movies and pop popcorn but we have never tried gourmet popcorn.Jerry's Nut House The Colorado Nut Company makes gourmet popcorn along with nuts and candy but popcorn is their specialty. They start with amazing kernels to end up with the best quality popcorn which, is made in house by Jerry's master poppers. It's expertly mixed with the best caramel. The Result... Caramel Popcorn crunchy goodness. I am usually skeptical of bagged popcorn or popcorn in a tin and like my popcorn fresh.I love Caramel Popcorn but my teeth are not that strong so i have to be careful of what i eat so lately i haven't been able to eat caramel popcorn because its usally to hard for me to eat.I haven't had caramel popcorn in a while i was amazed when i received my popcorn the popcorn was very soft not hard it was fluffy and tasted amazing it was fresh.I have never tasted popcorn this great before.  

For my review i was sent 3 bags of popcorn Caramel,Gourmet butter popcorn and smokin hot chedder cheese popcorn.



My son loves butter popcorn Jerry's master poppers really know there popcorn it was light and fluffy great taste and for a buttery popcorn it was not greasy like most popcorn's that are buttery it has a great taste and texture just like the movie popcorn without all the greasy fingers.



My father in law loves to eat anything hot he puts hot sauce on just about anything.So i when i saw the smokin hot Cheddar cheese popcorn i knew he would love to try this popcorn.Made with spicy serrano and secret spice seasoning this was just the right popcorn for him we gave him some and he loved it also it was spicy and cheesy just like he liked it he usually doctors up his own popcorn to his taste but he didn't need to it was just perfect the way it was.

They start with the best kernels to pop their 
gourmet popcorn. Their master popper Johnny has over 23 years of experience. He gives undivided attention to making all their popcorn flavorsButter PopcornCaramel Popcorn,Cheddar Cheese PopcornWhite Cheddar PopcornNatural Lightly Salted Popcorn and their newest Smokin' Hot Chedda

They also have candy,nuts and the popcorn is their in house specialty.We all loved the popcorn it was great tasting full of flavor and tasted fresh very important in popcorn i have never tasted such a fresh popcorn it tasted just like we had just made it better actually.
