BATH TIME!!!!!!! Bath-a-Licious

  How many of you have heard of BATH BOMBS ETC?????? They were fairly new to me when I came across their page!!!  I thought -- What a neat idea!!!!!
  Melissa said she would send me some to review, so lo and behold... I have a GREAT reason to take a bath!!!! She actually sent me so much to review that I feel greedy keeping it all for myself!!!!

So now Bath Bombs has become BATH-A-LICIOUS!!!!! A more post office friendly name!!! =)=)

 I tucked my children and husband in bed and I skipped down the hall to the bathroom (towel in hand!!).
 There I took what felt like forever trying to decided which scent to try!!!!
  Coconut, Moonlight Path(YES, just like the Bath and Body Works one!!), Cucumber Melon, Baby Powder, Amazing Grace and one with a name that is of course my FAVORITE name!!!  Night Blooming Jasmine!!!!!
  I decided on Moonlight Path and started running my water.... I hopped into my bath and dropped in a fizzy.... ohhhhh...yes.......
  Lying there with my head back and eyes shut... I listened to the fizzle..fizzle.. fizzle.... and breathed in the relaxing aroma!!!!  TOTALLY reminded me of the old commercial "Calgon, take me away!!!"
  I truly wish I could have stayed there all night... But, as us moms know better, that these baths and showers sometimes can be few and far between!!!!  I sure did sleep good after that!!!!

Exploring Scentsy with Dawn!!!

  I was recently given the chance to try an item I had only heard about!!!!  So in it's own way I was (for lack

of a better word) a Scentsy virgin.  Hee hee!!!!!

  Scentsy is the talk of the internet now!!---  Everyone seems to have tried it or sell it , since it seems you

really only need to invest around $100 to get your own supply !!!!  Many I have read, sell it just to "support

their habit"!!!!

   Dawn Zavatsky Welch jumped at the opportunity to give me a beautiful plug-in (of choice) and a Spiced

Grapefruit scent to try with it!!!! And as with all good things, it felt like F-O-R-E-V-E-R before it got here!!!

=)=)=)=)!!!   Then, one afternoon mu doorbell rang and...much to my delight--saw a box that said "Scentsy"

on the side!!!! I felt like a kid in a candy store as I ran back up my stairs to the glowing faces of my

children!!!  They eagerly helped me unpack the box and put together the BEAUTIFUL seashell warmer!!!

  Within minutes the bathroom and surrounding areas were engolfed in a fresh, fruity aroma..... I smile every

time I smell it!!! Sssoooo.. wonderful!!!!

  Having been a candle lady myself for years it was incredibly easy to fall in love with this product!!  The

gentle glow that flows from the warmer pulls you in like a warm muffin out of the oven!!

  I am excited to discover a new scent one of these days and see what Tropical Island that one takes me

to!!! So if you haven't already, I think it is time for

YOU to take the fall as well!!   You will be amazed at the variety of items and scents available!!! There are

25 brand new scents that have just been brought out for spring/summer!!!

  Dawn is an incredible woman to work with and will gladly work out any questions you might have or run

into!!!  She truly cares about her customers and will go the extra mile to make sure you are satisfied !!!

 Please make sure you check out her page and feel free to let her know that I sent you!!!!

                                Thank you Dawn for this incredible new journey!!!!!

Potty Warmer

  Back some weeks ago, I signed up on Little Gremlin Gear's Blog for a chance to win a spot to test a "Potty

 Warmer".  I was lucky enough to be chosen (thank you random .org) as a third.... and lo and behold in my

 mailbox came an adorable potty warmer!!!!! 


  It is made of the cutest, softest material...which is not only easy to clean but would fit just about ANY potty

 chair!!!!!

  We put this adorable monkey warmer on my daughters' potty chair and she IMMEDIATELY wanted to be

 on it ALL the time!!!!

  It not only is wonderfully made, but it is the cutest part of our "potty corner"!!!  It has given my daughter so

 much more initive to sit on her potty!!!!!

  In addition, FOR ME, it has been a HUGE blessing as,(KNOCK ON WOOD), has not gone #2 in her

 diaper since we placed it on her potty!!!!!

Little Gremlin Gear has so many cute and unique ideas... you NEED to go and explore their site!!!!!


  I want to thank Little Gremlin Gear for the opportunity to be a tester for them, and for opening my eyes to

 some of the unique items that can change little peoples' perspectives!!!!!!



                                              Hop over here to check them out!!!!!

Green Goose Review

 I LOVE the name of this hard working lady's business!! She makes everything from dryer balls and dryer SHEETS to "Honker Hankies"-- take a wild guess what those are!!!! =) =)
  She has something unique for everyone!!!!

  I have to say that one of my favorites out of her items that I have purchased is her "Ouchie Bags". We keep all but one of ours in the freezer for all the "ouchies" in our house! (Which are quite a few!!)  They are pouches filled with Flax seed... they can be heated or cooled to help with all those aches and pains... and ouchies!!!

 On to what I'm really here to review!!!!


 My daughter is 2 1/2 and has just begun her hair piece fettish!!!! We were sent a beautifully made hairbow that I have a hard time getting away from my daughter at bedtime!!!!
  It is fluffy and soft and sits in her hair so nicely with the alligator clip it is attached to!!  We have had such wonderful comments about it!!!
  I find myself saying " I Wish" when people ask me if I made it!!!  I just giggle, and after admitting that NO I don't have that talent I always tell them " a very talented lady made that for her"!!

 
Everyday I feel like I am reviewing another product for "Goose"!!   Our items that we have purchased are used practically EVERY day!!!

 So PLEASE, do yourself a favor and go over to her site, LIKE her and find something to try!!! She really does EXCELLENT work!!!
 Thank you Goose!! I hope your Gander appreciates you as much as I do!!! =) =)

 2. I use it for my husbands WORK clothes!!  He works on machines for a pharmacy company... greasy, slimy.. gross stuff comes home With him!!!! ( I use Hard Rock for this)

3. I use it to clean my bathroom and kitchen floors!!  I take one Tbls. in a 48 oz. spray bottle .. add water to the stop and mix.

4. I use it to clean out my tubs and shower!!!!  Same mix as #3.. spray.. let set then go over with a scrubbie? or just rinse if not much is built up from the time before!!

5. I use it to scrub my carpets!!!  I take 4 Tbls. per refill tank on my carpet scrubber.. HOT water ( of course) works best!!!  I always go over it with my vaccuum when dry!!!

6. I use it in my dishwasher!!   I use a Tsp. in my dishwasher (dry) compartment... Rinses so..clean!! Things I never imagined it could clean!!!  I used it on some things that were dirty, grimy and yucky from my grandmothers kitchen... Soaked them for a hour and used a regular sponge. Off it all came!!! SOOOO beautiful!!!!

Joy

Joy is a gift.... and it comes in sooo many forms.
  Christmas is a time of giving.. yet so many people don't understand that Christmas is really about our faith. Faith at times I feel is overrated.  Many people don't have any.  I have a ton!!!
  Love and kindness I feel come right along with faith. Jesus came down to earth and lived with all the "Hicks" that he was soo much better than.. he then gave up his life for them... and us. So that we can go on being sinful and unkind??
 We need to consider why God put us here. We are guardians of the next generation... who in turn will be the guardians of the next generation... and so on.
   Please, always remember to keep Christ in Christmas all year long... as my grandmother said yesterday to me..." Christmas should be more than just a couple of days"!!!
  Consider making Jesus a birthday cake next year!!!  It will bring a smile to EVERYONE"S face!!!!!


                                            God bless you and yours in this New Year!!!!
