Monday Morning Ramblings

~We had a fun (and busy) weekend over here which included Tons O’ Trucks (a local event with, you guess it, a ton of different kinds of trucks), a few bike rides, swimming, errands and OMG a trip to Dave & Busters. Dave & Busters beats Chuck E Cheese any day of the week. By far. And they have better prizes. A mean pinky bear is L’s new BFF! And WB won a Stay Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters who he adores. I suspect we will be back there. And soon.  Ohh, and B also ran a 5K yesterday. I think he’s up to 8 or 9?  He’s go another one this weekend too.  And then one the weekend after that.

~I spent some time this weekend updating the “FAQ” and the “Things I Sell” tabs on the blog.  If you haven’t already, go check them out.  And since I have been getting a lot of questions about Advocare Spark, I explained all that in there too.   And I also spent a ton of time updating the “Subscription Box Reviews” tab.  I haven’t updated the items in the scroll down menu (yet), but the review tab itself now includes a listing over EVERY box I have ever reviewed.  Let me know if there is anything you think I could do to change it to make it easier to read, better, etc!

The new list of reviews

~OMG, so I started watching the new season of The Real World last night and I think I’m in love.  As usual, these people are bananas.  And I love every minute of it.  This is the first cast in ages that I am totally interested in.   Does anyone else watch?

~This week I am expecting boxes from Unmentionably Cheeky, Petite Parcel, Bonjour Jolie, Stork Stack, Birchbox Man, bluum and that might just be it.  And I need to get reviews up MeUndies, Carefree Crafts and lullubee.  A slow week if you will!  Totally not a bad thing.  You need that every once in a while.

~Today is L’s last day of school.  Wednesday is his graduation (which is going to be so cute).  And then?  School is OUT!  I feel like this year flew by.  Flew!  I can’t wait to do a comparison picture with this one later in the week 😉

Almost done!

 

What do you have going on this week?  Anything exciting?  Are your kids out of school yet?

    The updates look great! And I NEED these school grade signs to take pictures of Willard!!! I’m already a year behind! How did I not think of this!?! Where do I get them? Oh and I need something to watch this summer so I’m gonna take a peep at Real World. I haven’t watched that stuff since high school and I bet I’m gonna love it even more now!

    I watched the first two episodes of the new season, but then I canceled our cable and I kinda forgot about it. Good thing I can easily catch up on MTV.com

    What kinds of games did Dave and Busters have that were appropriate for WB? My son is a few months older than WB and I have been thinking about going there with him, but we haven’t made it yet 🙂

    I can’t stop watching The Real World either. I think the last season I watched was Australia. For some reason, I started watching this season with my husband, and I can’t get enough. I am going to be so sad with this trainwreck is over!!

    Did you watch the premiere of the Real Housewives of New Jersey yet? They are by far my favorite and I can’t wait t hear what you think about the new season!

    I love comparison pictures! (Thanks to Pinterest) what I did this year was take a picture of my son on the first day of Kindergarten holding a paper (like you have above) except it said the date, First day of Kindergarten, and then said “When I grow up I want to be:” and he filled in the blank. So I will do that every year to see how his ideas of what he wants to be changes. Then on his last day of kindergarten I took a picture of him holding and 8×10 framed picture of himself on the first day of school. CUTE! So you could see the change in one photo! How I love Pinterest! 🙂
