Beauty Week for Mom

I know Mother's Day was a while ago but I just love spoiling mom. Yes, both me and my own mom. I've found some amazing new products recently that I wanted to share with you as great just-because gifts to make your beautiful mom feel special.

If you want a simple gift then you should think about 42 BEES Slant Tip Tweezers or Easy Press Clippers. Both are things that the mom in your life probably uses every day and looses regularly. She'll be very appreciative of this thoughtful but practical gift as both of these items are top quality and will help her become her best beautiful self!

If you want to add a little to this special gift then Anaiti's Age Defying Face Cream and/or Moisturizer Cream would be a perfect addition to this gift. These are both amazing creams that will make your mom fill pampered and loved. 

And if you want to go really over the top and spoil mom then add some Stretch Mark Cream to the mix. This is an amazing product that will help your mom feel like herself again as it helps to heal years of scars. She'll be so appreciative of this special gift to spoil herself - and no one else.

Happy Shopping!

Father's Day at Best Buy - Part 2

So the other day I told you about what we're getting our dad for Father's Day and why I'm super excited about it. Today, I'd like to give you another fantastic Father's Day gift idea that most any dad would love - drones.

Now, I don't know much about drones other then that my husband thinks they are awesome. Best Buy is the destination for drones, including the new Solo™ by 3DR. Now is the time to explore for Father’s Day.

Solo can the dream drone as it can define its own flight, freeing users to focus on getting the shot. This intelligent drone is also the first to support full control of GoPro® cameras and deliver live HD video either wirelessly to your mobile device or through the controller’s HDMI port for live broadcasts. Isn't that cool?!? Now I think I want one too.

You can pick up your very own Solo drone at Best Buy today. I don't know who will be more excited you, your kids, or your husband...

Stubb Bar-B-Q Sauce Grilling Tips + Giveaway

Now that the warmer weather is upon us, it’s prime time to get out and barbecue. Rocky Stubblefield, Stubb’s Legendary Bar-B-Q brand ambassador and grandson of founder C.B. “Stubb” Stubblefield, offers a few tips and recipes he’s picked up over the years to make you the grilling hero of any barbecue, family gathering or even weeknight dinner. Stubb’s is the maker of authentic, premium, BBQ sauces, rubs and marinades and was founded by C.B. “Stubb” Stubblefield in 1968.

Stubb didn’t just make barbecue, he made friends, serving up his slow-smoked brisket, cole slaw and beans, all with his wide, trademark smile at his restaurant in Lubbock, Texas. It was during this time that Stubb first began bottling his now famous sauces at the request of his friends
.

Rocky’s Grilling Tips

Today, Stubb’s heritage lives on in his legendary sauces, marinades and rubs, continuing to make people feel good all over the world.

• Use indirect cooking for larger meats (indirect is cooking away from the fire), and direct cooking for smaller meats (direct is cooking over the fire).
• When marinating, beef chicken and pork can be marinated up to two days in a refrigerator. You should only marinate seafood for a few hours.
• When using charcoal, allow coals to ash over before adding meat to the grill.
• When cooking burgers, make a thumbprint in the middle of the patty before putting it on the grill. This will help the patty come out nice and flat (not puffy in the middle) and the meat will be cooked evenly throughout.

 

Stubb’s Toasted Pecan Burger

 

• Soak vegetables in cold water before grilling – it keeps them from burning or drying out too fast.
• For a juicier steak, let your meat rest for at least 10 minutes after it is done to allow the juices that were forced into the center of the meat when cooking to distribute throughout the steak.

Grilled Ribeye Steak, Stubb-Style

• Don’t cook ribs ‘til they are falling off the bone – ribs should be grilled until they begin to pull away from the bone, but you should be able to bite into and leave a bite mark as you eat it off the bone. Overcooked ribs become dried out and less flavorful – even a little bit mushy.

Sweet Baby Back Ribs

• Clean grill after every use. You can use a ball of foil or an onion – just cut the onion in half, and while the grill is heating up, rubs the onion across it. The juices from the onion clean the grill and get it ready for use.

Now for the fun part! Head below for your chance to enter the giveaway below to win a personalized grilling set, Stubb’s branded spatula Stubb’s heavy duty, hand-carved cedar wood cutting board, Stubb’s hat, bag, T-shirt and $30 in Stubb’s coupons this fantastic set is worth $150! Perfect for making your Fourth of July celebration Legendary!! Giveaway is open to US Resident only and ends on 6/26 at 11:59pm EST.

Party in Rexburg, ID with Slide the City

You know I'm always on the lookout for fun family and couple events. Recently I was introduced to Slide the City which takes place in towns nationwide and I am very excited that they are coming locally so we can have a fun date activity this summer.

On Saturday, July 11th - East 7th St. in Rexburg, ID will be transformed as participants ride inflatables down this giant slide spanning three city blocks. With music, local vendors, and giveaways, this family friendly event promises to be a highlight of the summer. For a limited time, My readers SAVE 10% with promo code USFAM -- Get your tickets here! Participants can purchase a one, three or unlimited slide pass. Tickets are now available, starting at $13.

A portion of the event proceeds will be donated to Rexburg Rotary Club. Rexburg Rotary Club of Idaho founded on May 1, 1920 is an organization designed to provide service to the community, to the people of the world at large, to professions, and to the club.

Here are some answers to the questions that I had about this fun family event:

Is there an age or height limit?
-All who are over 46 inches tall and over 5 years old are invited to slide, but remember if you're under 18 you'll need to get a sign off from your legal guardians.


Are there group rates available?
-If you have a group with 20 or more participants send us an email.

What do you do to address water conservation?
-Water conservation is also a priority at our events. We strive to have zero environmental impact on the community. The Slide was designed to have zero water loss, and it treats and recycles the water safely and efficiently throughout the day. When permitted, we donate the water back to the community. Methods of disposal include local reclamation centers, parks, golf courses and other places dependent upon local regulations.

Don't forget, my readers will SAVE 10% with promo code USFAM for a limited time Get your tickets today!

UPDATE: Slide the City was so much fun! I loved having the day with my husband with this fun activity. The only downside was that at the end the wind picked up and started lifting the slide but other then that it was a blast! I can't wait to take my kids as soon as they are old enough. So much family fun!

Aroma Trees Fragrance Room Sprays

It's crazy how fast your kids grow! I can't believe that my little boys are turning into big boys. #Sigh Sometimes I wish they could stay little forever. One of the things I'm disliking the most is that my house is starting to smell like "big boy" - Ugh! We've tried a lot of different things to try to help the smell but one of the best things we've found so far is Aroma Tree Fragrance Room Sprays.

These sprays are biodegradable, environmentally safe and vegan friendly making them a great solution for most any home. We tried the Fresh Apple Cinnamon scent and the only downside I can find is that it makes me hungry. The scent itself lasted a very long time, over 12 hours in our bathroom,

This is a great solution whether you want to cover up stink like I do or have another need, like staging a home for sale. You can't go wrong with Aroma Trees Fragrance Room Sprays.

A Summer Vision

Summer is here and that means it's time to think about summer safety for ourselves and our kids. Most of us think about this as part of our daily routine. It's our goal as parents to keep our kids safe as they ride bikes, swim, play outside, and visit family and friends but how often do we think about protecting the unseen parts of our kids - the insides of their eyes? I know I don't think about it nearly as often as I should.

Unfortunately, we are forgetting to protect a very important part of our children's future. Some of the dangers of UV exposure to the eyes are sunburned eyes, cataracts, and age-related macular degeneration. That's some pretty serious consequences for a danger with a fairly simple solution. So what do we need to do? Add sunglasses to our daily dress routine.

What are the most important times and places to make sure you're equipped with  the coolest shades? Anytime your outside is a good start but here are a few things that the vision council wants to mention that you might not have thought of causing more trouble for your eyes.

And here are some tips they suggest for helping you pick out the perfect pair of shades for yourself and your little ones. Remember, if you follow these three simple guides you'll be sure to find something that works well for your lifestyle.

For more tips and tricks on caring for your eyes so they last a lifetime make sure you check out The Vision Council's webiste. They provided this information and have a ton more available to help you care for a very important part of you body. They have everything from statistics, to tips to buying glasses, to lists of all the hottest trends. You'll be very glad you stopped by!

The Best for Dad - Only at Cabela's + Giveaway

This is a Fashionista Event and a promotional item was provided to me. 

Hosts for this event are Still Blonde after all these Years and ModlyChic.

Guess what ... Spring is here, the kids are out of school, and that means it's time to get ready for the next big event, Father's Day. This year as I plan out our Father's Day surprises I am very excited that I have a new place to shop in our little town. That's right, we finally have a Cabela's and now it will be even easier to fulfill the wish lists of the Father's in my life.

Cabela's has always known how important father's are and this year they are helping make it possible for every family to spoil their dads from June 11 to June 21 with amazing savings on the best outdoor equipment. I got a little sneak peak and was very excited to see a little bit of everything including fishing rods, sleeping bags, optics, grills and much more will be available during Cabela's Father's Day Sale. Don't worry, if you're not quite sure what Dad needs Cabela's has you covered. They have put together a Father's Day Gift Guide to help you pick the perfect new toy for the man in your life.

I just know you'll want to shop Cabela’s Father’s Day Sale and save up to 50%. Here's a preview of some of my favorites and things I know are on my man's wish list. Which option do you think I should pick?

We really like buying Father's Day gifts that the whole family can enjoy together (that's the whole point of being a dad right) so the Eagle's Camp Family Voyager 8-Person Tent at $50 off would be a great option for our family. We have lots of great times camping together and a new tent would fit the bill perfectly.

Another must-have-soon item at our house is the Blackstone 36" Griddle Station. This is a great way to cook all those meals that we love to do. Hubby is quite the camp chef and he would love some new tools to help him out.

There are so many other great options I could go on for hours. Just head on over and see all the great ideas for spoiling your dad this year. Make sure you visit Cabela's and then check out Coupons .com for more great Father’s Day deals.

#UltraHug Take 2

Don't you just love snuggling with a baby or cute kid? I know I just love cuddling with my children - specially when they are sleeping and I can really hold them close. Most of the time my sleepy snuggle time happens as I carry kids in from the car after a long day of summer fun. One of our favorite places to go is Grandma's house but the local park, zoo, and library are also visited often.

Unlike me, Dad is a favorite person to snuggle with at our house. He no sooner walks through the door and he has kids all over wanting hugs. Sometimes it can get pretty funny! Recently we have had the opportunity to enter some of our favorite snuggle pictures to help our favorite community projects get a grant from Huggies.

Currently Huggies is bringing baby cuddles to a whole new level of fun with their #UltraHug project. Participating is easy! Simply take a selfie of you and your baby snuggling and use #UltraHug and nominate the community project of your choice on Instagram or Twitter. From April 20th until June 25th, 2015, Huggies will be accepting all of these photos and featuring them in a collage on the project page. On July 6th, voting will begin to narrow down the 20 finalists to 10 winners who will receive a $2000 grant from Huggies for their nominated community initiative. Let's get those great projects nominated now!

Embarrassing but Necessary - The Untold Story + Giveaway!

Sometimes as a mom there are things we just don't like to talk about. You know, when you get to the store and realize your child has poop up their back. Or that time when your child threw up all over at church. The truth is, life happens, and mom's understand. Most other women aren't looking at you with dislike, they are thinking "how can I help?" and if its me nearby, know I may not be brave enough to offer assistance (yes, I'm shy) but I will be praying for you.

One of those embarrassing things we get to deal with as moms is bladder leakage. It's not attractive, we don't like talking about it, and many of us probably don't even like to admit that it's a problem we face. It's a good thing we love those kids, most of the time, because most of us know where the root of the problem started.

Thankfully, there are others that understand our plight. This month we are excited to be helping to celebrate Depend's second year of Underwareness. As part of this celebration they are supporting women with bladder leakage by donating up to $3 million to advance the research and education of bladder leakage. With their low rise, Active Fit briefs, with an underwear-like look, fit and fill Depends has our backs and knows what we need to make it through our life as a mom.

Orajel for Tots and More with Smilestones + Giveaway + Coupon

The weather is starting to warm up, the flowers are blooming, my lawn needs to be mowed... yep, it must be spring and at the Kerr house that means it is also the beginning of Birthday season. This year, I was thrilled when Orajel™ Kids invited me to participate in their Smilestones program. We were very excited that at the beginning of this fun, birthday season one of our favorite brands is giving away an ultimate birthday party to one great winner and that entering is as easy as sharing your favorite birthday photo. You'll want to make sure you enter their Smilestones Birthday Sweepstakes today!

The even better news is that besides this great giveaway there are lots of other amazing reasons to love Orajel Kids. One of the things that always comes with birthdays at our house is yearly photos and Orajel helps us prepare for those fun moments too by making sure all our smiles are perfect. Whether your child is teething, learning to brush, or starting to brush on his/her own, Orajel Kids has you covered during every stage of oral development making it the perfect solution for growing families.

Like most kids, Kerr kids are very picky when it comes to toothpaste. Sometimes it is a struggle to get them to brush their teeth simply because they are tired and cranky but I have found that having a toothpaste they like can be a big help in my ability to win the battle. The boys specifically don't like just any brand or flavor but when I buy Orajel I know it will always be a hit. The price is good, the flavor is good, the characters make it fun, the function is amazing, and the best part is that they have products to fit the needs of all the kids in our family!

If you are anxious to try Orajel products with your family you can find a coupon code here to help get you started!
