Disney on Ice - Dare to Dream

*Pictures to be added ASAP*

Let me tell you, the show was AWESOME!  It was very entertaining, kept your attention, even for the little guys, colorful, energetic, great dancing, etc.  It was definitely one of the best Disney on Ice shows I have been to.

My 2 year old nephew couldn't take his eyes off the ice.  He absolutely loved it.  My 4 year old really enjoyed when Mickey came out.  My little guy (1 year old) really loved the horses.  He kept saying, "Roof".  He thought the horses were dogs :-).  Bless his little heart!

The show started with an introduction from Mickey and the gang.  The first story portrayed was The Frog Princess, then came Cinderella and finally Tangled.  The stunts in Tangled were absolutely amazing!  I am not going to give away what they did, you will have to go and buy your tickets and watch the show yourself!

You can purchase tickets from TicketMaster.  Children 3 and under are FREE if they sit on your lap.  Use code 1MOM2 and get the tickets for $11 for select shows.

Pink Zebra Giveaway!

Have you heard of Pink Zebra.  I like most girls love candles!  There is not much better than curling up to a great book with a cup of hot tea or coffee and lighting a relaxing scented candle.  My friend Maggie started consulting for Pink Zebra and asked me to sample a candle and review it for her.  I'm so glad I did!  The smell is FABULOUS!!!

The Sprinkles that I had the pleasure to try were Garden Lilac & Stress Relief.  Those 2 scents together are wonderful.  I am normally not one who likes flowery smells but when combined with the other fragrance, it is very calming and relaxing to me.  Below are some pictures I took of the candle holder and Sprinkles candle that was created by the combination of the 2 scents.

How I would like to tell you a bit about what I learned about the products.  The Sprinkles are made from Soft Soy® wax and high quality fragrance oils.  These oils are blended together to give the candles 50% more fragrance than the average.  Using the Sprinkles, you can personalize the fragrance in 3 different ways:

• Combine the Sprinkles to make your own candle/color combination.
• Change the candle's fragrance by adding Sprinkles to the top.
• Mix the Sprinkles in a Simmer pot for a flameless variation.

There are 44 different fragrances currently available for purchase on their website.  Other products they carry include:  simmer pots, re-sealable reed diffusers, dish soaps, lotions, soaps, caddy & candle stands.

Maggie has given me the opportunity to offer you, my readers, the chance to sample the Sprinkles if you would like.  You can email her to request samples.  She also wanted to offer one of my readers a Sprinkle giveaway.  The winner can choose the Sprinkle scent/color of their choice.

Naturalizer Review & 48 Hour Giveaway!

Have you ever tried a pair of Naturalizers?  I hadn't until now.  I always wanted a pair but never knew if they were worth the money.  I can now honestly say that they are WELL worth the money.  They have been around since the 1920s so they have had lots of time to get their product right. 

Naturalizers come in a variety of sizes (4.5-12) and widths (narrow, medium, wide) for extra comfort.

I usually hate wearing heels but these boots are the most comfortable heels I have ever worn in my entire life!  I could wear them all day and night and not even remember I had heels on.  They fit perfectly around my calf and even have a little stretch to them for added comfort.  They are classy and just plain fabulous looking.  They are beautiful with skirts, capris and even jeans.  I absolutely LOVE them.

Check out this video for even more information.

Now to make this review even sweeter, one of my readers get a chance to try out these fabulous shoes as well.  All you have to do is be a fan of my site and fill out the form below.  The winner will receive 1 of their top 3 choices from the 10 selected styles in the Naturalizer fall collection:

*Collette

*Irma

*Lennox

*Valya

*June

Be a Part of Something Wonderful!

If you have followed my blog for a while, you know that I have donated to Operation Christmas Child for several years and really have a passion for this ministry. We look at our children who appear to have everything and get tons of gifts for Christmas. Now, think of the thousands of children around the world who have nothing! Could you imagine the looks on those children's faces when they are given a shoebox full of toys and goodies that you made for them? What an amazing blessing you could be in their life. Not only do they get a box full of goodies, they get presented with the True Meaning of Christmas!

Below is a video of how it all works so you have a better idea.

I would love for you to help me in this endeavor to send these love filled shoeboxes to kids. All you have to do is fill an average shoebox or shoebox sized box and mail it to:

Samaritan’s Purse
Operation Christmas Child

801 Bamboo Road
Boone, NC 28607
