Holiday Gift Guide:: Send your love with Tiny Prints!

I'm just about ready to do some holiday card ordering and was just waiting on a great picture of the kids so that I could do so. I know its already November 25th and I've gotta hustle to get them ordered and in the mail, but a great picture was more important to me then getting the cards here early.

As always, one of my favorite places to shop for holiday cards is Tiny Prints. They never let me down, they have amazing designs and have always had wonderful customer service when I've needed it. Its always so easy to narrow down their selections and find the card that is the perfect fit for your family and your photos! This year I'm pretty sure I'm going with the Fairy Forest tri-fold card. I think it could show off Boug and Lil' Buddy's personalities well!
Right now you're going to get FREE SHIPPING on ALL orders! Orders over $75 will receive 20% off and orders over $125 will receive 25% off.

Holiday Gift Guide:: Hearts For Hearts Girls!!

Not to sound negative, but there are some really trashy dolls out there these days for little girls, so when a nice, wholesome, and educational doll comes along I know I have to check it out for Miss Boug. After reading a bit about the Hearts For Hearts Girls dolls, I knew this was a doll that totally fit our values!

The Hearts For Hearts Girls dolls are unique to different countries and they have real life stories of ways they are all helping their individual communities. These dolls each include a code that unlocks the Hearts For Hearts Girls website where they provide more information about the dolls and their countries, culturally rich games for your girl to play, and more real stories to inspire your little girl to do good in the world.Meet the six Hearts For Hearts Girls:

  • Meet Consuelo from Mexico City. Colorful and warm, Consuelo provides aid to hungry children who are homeless and live on the streets near her parents’ bakery.

  • Meet Lilian of Belarus. Determined Lilian provides aid to girls whose parents must find work in the big city and are forced to leave their children with orphanages.

  • Meet Dell from the heart of Kentucky’s Appalachian Mountains. Dell creates music and knitwear to share with others in need of warm clothing.

  • Meet Rahel of Ethiopia. Rahel, who dreams of becoming a doctor so that she can make a real difference for people in her region, journeys with her family into the wilderness of Ethiopia to help bring back aid to her community.

  • Meet Tipi from Laos. Based on a real girl who shares her art and storytelling with others through dancing, drawing, and puppetry, Tipi leads her school in a mural contest in hopes of winning much-needed books for her class.

  • Meet Nahji who hails from Assam, India. Brave Nahji breaks tradition to bring courage and education to the girls who work in the tea fields of India.

Lots of kids will be upgrading their Nintendo DS to a 3DS or just getting a 3DS to start with this year for the holidays. As parents, we try to protect our investments since kids electronics aren't cheap these days! Here are two fun ways to protect the Nintendo 3DS and make great stocking stuffers! The fun part about them is that they aren't just another boring case! The Nerf armor is my favorite, its like wrapping your DS in a nerfball!!

Holiday Gift Guide:: You're gonna need some fuel!


With all the running around that comes with this time of year, I often forget to grab something to eat! I go from one store to the next, and hours and hours pass, with only coffee fueling my fire to accomplish my shopping. Not good. Need Food!!

There are a few times every year that I absolutely craveee McDonald's. One is right around St. Patrick's day when the Shamrock Shake comes back. The other? McRib time. Something about that McRib that is absolutely something I wish was on their menu all the time!!

Those of you unfamiliar with the McRib, its a bangin' pork rib sandwich with no bones, on a super soft bun, slathered with their McRib bbq sauce and topped with pickles and onions!

Haven't tried the McRib or just a McRib fan like myself? I have 3 certificates for a FREE McRib sandwich up for grabs! Three winners for this giveaway!!

Wanna win a FREE McRib certificate? Leave a comment with your favorite grab-n-go on the run food!

Holiday Gift Guide:: Jake & the Neverland Pirates on Disney Junior!


One of Lil' Buddy's most favorite shows this year has been Jake & the Neverland Pirates on Disney Junior and its only getting better for us! We've been watching Jake, Izzy and Cubby's pirate adventures almost daily, and its been cable tv's #1 series for 2-5 year old boys. No wonder Buddy loves it so much! Buddy absolutely thinks its hilarious when the kids foil Captain Hook and Mr. Smee's plans! For me, I love the pirate rock that Sharky and Bones provide through the show! They do have some catchy tunes that get stuck in my head!

We love when our families favorite shows do something for the holidays and are completely stoked that Jake & the Neverland Pirates will be doing a holiday special as well! On Friday, December 2nd, you'll be able to catch "Its a Winter Never Land!" on Disney Junior from 8:30-9am EST!

A great gift to me this holiday season is going to be the launch of the 24 hour Disney Junior channel!! I love that all our favorite preschool Disney shows are going to be on 24 hours a day! Keep your eyes peeled for it in early 2012.

Great this year for the holidays, the Jake & the Neverland Pirates fans in your life would love to get the season 1 DVD as gifts, or even the soundtrack! I was also able to find on amazon, a super cool time teacher Jake & the Neverland Pirates watch that ships free with super-saver shipping!!

Salute Our Troops with Dollar General!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of DollarGeneral for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Personally, one of the groups of people that I give thanks for quite often is our veterans and our active duty military. What they do for our country and what they sacrifice is beyond anything that I can easily put into words. Of course their families also, because they give so much up as well, so that their loved ones can protect our country, and essentially, us.

 

More and more companies are doing good things for our military on Veterans Day, more and more that I've noticed over the past few years. There are plenty of discounts and freebies that these companies offer to show appreciation and I applaud them for it! Dollar General is one of those companies, this year they are featuring their Dollar General's Veteran's Day discount. This Friday, Veterans Day, active duty, veterans as well as their families can receive a 10% discount while shopping in-store, without any sort of a coupon needed. Online there is also a code that is for all shoppers to save 10% as well, just enter VETERANSDAY when you check out!  

Dollar General also makes it easy to show your support in another couple of ways. You can record and upload a brief message to their Facebook  page for everyone to see! Another option that they offer in store is $20 or $30 care packages. Its nice for the service men and women to get packages with stuff that they need an use, and sometimes its hard to even know what that is as a civilian. These care packages include things like toothbrushes, nuts, eye drops, candy and other items that they'll definitely appreciate. Dollar General is shipping these care packages FREE OF CHARGE to our guys and gals out there protecting us!

Take a moment and visit the Dollar General Facebook page and take a peek at some of the videos. Will you be uploading one to salute our troops this upcoming Veterans Day?

Shutterfly Family Photo Days & Tips for a Great Family Photo


With the holidays right around the corner, I know so many people who are getting their holiday photo cards ordered asap. Personally, I haven't even begun!! I've been putting it off for the stupidest reasons... Bud needs a haircut... Boug has a scratch on her face... If I put it off any longer it'll be New Years before I get my holiday cards mailed out!!

Although I procrastinate, I do have my own tips for creating a great picture, keeping in mind that I'm absolutely not a professional photographer.


Casey's tips for a superb holiday photo
-Be comfortable! Stiffness in a photo is horrible!
-Let your personalities shine through!
-Jazz it up! Props or going to a place special to you can help let the true you come through!
-Get a trusted opinion on your choice! Have a friend who is always brutally honest? Show them the picture you're thinking of using and get their opinion!
-Get together with friends! Let a friend take pictures of you with your family, then you can return the favor to them and theirs! Make a fun time out of it! Half of my problem with pictures is that I'm NEVER in them cause I'm always the one taking them!!

Shutterfly is here to help! They've been planning out their Family Photo Days throughout November to help their customers get the best family photo for their holiday cards. Why use a picture that isn't GREAT simply because its just "the best you've got?" I've loved browsing through, and getting great inspiration for my Christmas cards this year thanks to Shutterfly's Family Photo Days. You can too just by heading to their site! Use their tips for a perfect photo and then get it put onto one of their awesome cards, it seriously keeps the headache to a minimum!
