I am a little late posting this up because last night I went to the midnight showing of "New Moon". It was SOOOooo much better than the first one, "Twilight". It seems everyone was excited to see Jacob and his new sexy body, but not I. I was just excited to see Edward again. I am so on Team Edward and I am honestly sounding like I am in High School again having one of those High School crushes. ("Hubby, I love you"!)
Anyways, I am a bit tired since I got home around 3:00 am and I am going to just try to move on with my day..... but it is so hard when I am constantly day dreaming about Edward.... Ok, hopefully I will get something useful accomplished.

I wish I didn't enjoy Black Friday so much. Once I go, I promise myself I won't go again because the crowds and the people are not worth it, but then I see the deals and I just can't say "no". So here I am already preparing my strategy for this years Black Friday.
At BlackFriday.info you can already see some of the ads for this years Black Friday!
Many of you have seen it or heard of it's competitors, but nothing compares to the "Original Slanket"! How would I know? Well I own one of course!
Last year I got my hands on my very own Slanket, although my husband laughed at the look, he couldn't complain about the comfort and the quality of the Slanket. After many washings, my Slanket is still soft and comfortable. This is unlike Slankets competitors products who uses material that won't last through a washing or two. Trust me when I say, "I have seen and compared"! With the Christmas season being the time of year you like to snuggle close the fire with a warm cup of coco and a nice warm blanket, I find there no other better gift idea than the Slanket. Foe those of you who love blankets or know those who do, this will be the perfect gift for them.... or yourself.
The Slanket comes in a variety of colors and patterns. You can also find Slankets for two people, kids and traveling. If you are considering purchasing multiple Slankets you can also get FREE SHIPPING of orders over $100.
Giveaway: One winner will win their choice of Slanket found on The Slanket site.
To Enter: Go to The Slanket's site and look around. Come back to this link and leave a comment telling me which Slanket you want!

When welcoming in the winters holiday seasons, we also have to welcome in the cold weather. Where I live, this means snow and lots of it! Time outside is limited and so with being indoors so much you may begin to feel cooped up. For this reason, I wanted to find some great indoor activities for children. When considering these items for this year’s Christmas Gift Guide, I also found it important to find games and actitivies that were educational. This is why I included JumpStart.
My son and I were introduced to JumpStart earlier this year. JumpStart is an interactive world online in which your children can explore. Included in this interactive world are several activities for your child. All of which can help develop important skills in your child. I also liked the fact that it was a safe way for my child to work on their basic computer skills. My son, who was three at the time, was able to learn how to use the mouse and arrow keys on the computer.
I was recently contacted by JumpStart and informed of their newly released wii game, JumpStart Pet Rescue. Sadly I don’t have a wii to test this game out, but because I am familiar with JumpStarts interactive site, I am confident their wii game is just as wonderful. Here is a brief description of what JumpStart Pet Rescue has to offer.
“JumpStart Pet Rescue contains 5 Discovery worlds where Preschoolers navigate through 5 stories in a search for lost pets. Each Discovery world contains a guided story told by one of the JumpStart friends, leading children on a learning adventure through more than 70 learning lessons and activities that teach kids over 75 essential skills they need to succeed. As kids progress through the adventures, they improve their pre-reading skills, memory, creativity, motor skills, listening, and much more!”
Where to Buy: You and your child can purchase the wii JumpStart Pet Rescue at this link HERE. Here you can also becomes a member for free at JumpStarts interactive site. There also are
Giveaway: On lucky winner will receive one copy of JumpStart Pet Rescue for the Wii.
