Being A Big Baby Has Never Been So Much Fun!



Don't most people enjoy dressing up as something else for different occasions? Not just Halloween either. There seems to be more and more events where costumes are part of the whole thing. And costumes can be a lot of fun. I have never been too much on costumes, but do occasionally like to take part in things where costumes are required . I was given an opportunity to try out a costume from AnytimeCostumes.com. I'll be honest with you, I had a hard time picking out which one I wanted to try. I was really surprised when I went to the site and saw how many kinds and varieties of costumes they had. The choices were a lot of fun to go through and I narrowed mine down to this one!
No that is not me! And I will not show you me in the costume. It was hard enough for me to wear it over to church for the kids! Is that not just the funniest costume?! This costume brought so many laughs and giggles when I first told people about it, and then showed up in it! They could not believe how fun it was. The kids at church just loved it as an object lesson about acting like a big baby! We came up with a lot of fun ways we could use it and for different occasions too. Our church has a big baby shower each year to support a local charity and we are surely going to use it then. I can even see us pulling it out for some of the goofy women's nights we have.

The costume is made really well. The material is heavy enough to really cover things you might not want to be seen, but light enough that you don't feel like you will get over-heated. I do have one small complaint about it though. The section at the top where you zip it up does not open enough to really feel comfortable putting it on. I was afraid I might rip out the zipper. For a very skinny runway model, no problem. But for the average and especially the above average sized person that opening is just not enough!! I also like how the costume comes in a snap shut heavy plastic bag, so when I am not using it I can store it easily and safely.

So if you have an event coming up or just just want a good costume for Halloween you need to check out AnytimeCostumes.com! The prices are great, they ship quickly and the costumes are fun!


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Noxicare Natural Pain Relief Giveaway!!



I hate to admit it, but my husband and I have reached that time in our life when aches and pains seem to be a daily thing. From getting up in the morning till going to bed at night there always seems to be this little joint ache or pain. Trying to relieve those aches and pains is not always easy. They aren't bad, just annoying. So we don't want to take lots of pills for it, but do want to do something.

Noxicare is one of the answers for us. Noxicare Natural Pain Relief Cream is wonderful an simple to use. I'm not going to tell you it is a miracle cream or does absolutely amazing things. I don't believe any pain reliever does! But for us, it helped ease the little discomforts that come with aching joints and sore muscles we weren't aware that we had till we overused them. I'm not even going to say it completely took away the pain, it never really did, but it lessened it considerably and that is a very good thing!

Here is a description from the company: Noxicare Natural Pain Relief is a breakthrough natural, patented pain relief formula that is a proprietary combination of 7 of the world's most potent natural pain relievers that quickly and effectively alleviate infalamation, muscle aches and nerve pain - with NO known side effects and without a prescription.

Where I noticed it the most was in my hands. I am on the computer a lot, obviously with this blog and all the savings I am looking for. My fingers and hands pay the price. Arthritis is hereditary in my family and I knew it would hit at some time. I have several very sore joints in my fingers and after using the keyboard for a while, they start to hurt some. The Noxicare seemed to help with that, making it much more comfortable for me to continue typing, I think to my husband's dismay though!

For me the best thing is I know it is not full of nasty chemicals. The ingredients are almost all things i have grown in my garden or have harvested in the woods myself. It also does not stink! Nothing is worse than walking into a room and everyone knowing you are using some kind of pain relief cream! Some of them out there really stink. But Noxicare is subtle and does not interfere with any fragrance you may be wearing.

But don't take my word for it, try some yourself. Or better yet win some in the giveaway i am having. Noxicare has offered to give 2 of my readers some their cream. So enter today so you can win some. But if you don't want to wait you can buy some HERE!!

I was given a sample of Noxicare to review. I was not compensated for this review by them. The opinions expressed here are my own and in no way influenced by Noxicare.

Get you coupon for $1 off Bodycology, any product. Recently I found several things on clearance at WalMart. This would make them FREE!! Love that!

The Company by Chuck Graham ~ A Book Review


What I Thought About The Book:

I will tell you right up front, I am a disaster-aholic! I love movies, stories, television where the world is in imminent danger or major disaster hits an area. I was excited when I read the description of the book. Meteor strike, tsunamis, volcanoes, earthquakes, it has them all! I was thrilled! Then I started reading the book. It took me forever to really get into the story. I think I approached it with much higher expectations than I should have. it was not what i would call a typical disaster story. 

It is good in the sense that we watch all the small community went through to work their problems out, how a small group came together to make plans for their future. One man, who seemingly did not have all the qualifications you would think needed to do the job is called on to accomplish a huge project. It also shows how man seeks after God and how through all the difficulties and conflicting information He can still be found, wants to be found.

I certainly can't say this is a book I would call a favorite. My husband and sons would like it more than I did. But by the time you got going with the story line you wanted to know how things would work out and how things would end up for especially Sam Mitchell.


About Chuck Graham:

Chuck Graham's legal career as an attorney in private practice spanned more than thirty-one years. He represented many local, national, and international clients, acquiring intricate knowledge about the often-overlapping structures of the corporate world. He also worked against those seeking to create racial division, including the Ku Klux Klan. He has served as a member of the state bar of Georgia since 1979 and an instructor to attorneys and judges through the Institute for Continuing Legal Education (ICLE). He received the Medallion of Appreciation from ICLE.
Chuck is also a speaker and the author of Take the Stand (Broadman & Holman Publishers, 1996) and the compilations, A Year of Encouragement (Xulon Press).
In 1997 he founded Ciloa (Christ Is Lord Of All), a ministry devoted to sharing God’s encouragement with the world and teaching those who follow Him how to encourage others. Today Chuck serves as executive director and principal author of A Note of Encouragement, a weekly e-zine reaching 175 countries.
He and Beverly, his wife of thirty-four years, have lived in Lawrenceville, a suburb of Atlanta, for fourteen years. God has blessed them with three children. In his free time, Chuck enjoys backpacking and hiking (especially on the Appalachian Trail), playing the guitar, dabbling in photography, and reading extensively about the Christian faith.  Watch an interview with Chuck about his inspiration behing the story of The Company.

About The Company:

A meteor strike plunges the world into darkness. A stranger to the village of Brigos Glen restores power and light, supplied by three businesses, known as “The Company,” located beyond the forbidden mountains. The stranger reveals a plan so the Brigons can maintain the power and share the light with outlying territories, which remain shrouded in darkness.
Now, seventy years later, The Company summons six Brigons, including the young engineer Sam Mitchell, to attend a conference in the mountains of the forbidden Outlands. 
Responsible for compiling a report about Brigos Glen from his five companions, Sam learns how managers and villagers largely ignored the plan or compromised it to self-interest, forsaking their duty to share the light. They also took for granted The Company responsible for generating and transmitting the power.
In an ordeal fraught with failure, revelations, and judgment, Sam discovers the true identity behind The Company and learns the fate that may befall Brigos Glen . . . that is, unless he can stop it

Basic H2 Is Amazing!! Plus A Giveaway!!!


I am a cleaning fanatic. I always have been. So finding products that work are easy to use and don't cost me a fortune is important. Recently I was sent a sample of Shaklee's Basic H2. When I received it I thought there was no way this tiny little plastic bottle was going to make enough cleaner to do much of anything. WOW!! Was I ever wrong! This stuff is amazing.

It is so easy to use. For making window and mirror cleaner you just mix 2 drops, seriously, just 2 drops, and mix it with 16 oz of water. The glass cleans so well and just sparkles leaving no streaks!! I love that! Plus in the bathroom, at least for us, there wasn't as much steam build-up on the mirror with showers as with other cleaners.
This shows, although a little blurry, how small the package really is!

For the all-purpose cleaning you mix 1/4 tsp, yep that's all, with 16 oz of water. Mix it well and start going to town, cause when you start you will want to keep going. It works really well. I was afraid it just wouldn't get some of the tough stains out, but it did. Where I loved it the most was on our wall near where our Newfoundland sleeps a lot. He leans against the wall and kind of slides down it leaving smudges behind that build up to, well, yuck on my wall! The Basic H2 cleaned that off easily. Usually I would have to spray with cleanser and then scrub with a soft scrubber to get it out and then spray again to finish. The Basic H2 started cleaning it from the moment I first sprayed it on! So much easier and so much quicker, plus less in supplies to use.
 This is before cleaning. Yuck!! I had no idea how bad it was till I took the picture!! I'm glad it is in an out of the way part of my house!!
 This is showing after the first pass with Basic H2!! Wow!!!
This is almost done. I couldn't believe how quick it cleaned. Less than half the time it normally does and with little to no effort! You could see it cleaning as it sprayed out of the bottle!!

I think what I love the most is that there is so much less packaging than other products. The tiny little package it comes in makes more than 32 oz of product. And you don't have to use as much of the spray as you would other things to get the job done, so less use there too! I also love that it is organic, no toxins and is safe to use around my dogs and cat, plus any of the little munchkins that frequent my home too! This is very important to me!

If you don't believe me, you really need to try it out. I know it will save money, time and energy. It has for me! But you can also try it out by winning some. Krysta Steen, an Independent Distributor of Shaklee, is kindly offering to give away 5 Basic H2 vials to my readers!! So enter today and come back each day to do daily entries!!

I received a sample of the product for the purpose of this review. I was not compensated in any other way. All opinions expressed here are my own!!

I LOVE Saving Money!!!


I went shopping today with my husband. We were only going to pick up a few things. Well you know how that goes, a few ends up being a little more, then a little more. Well $102.48 later we had our stuff, that is before coupons!!!

After the cashier went through all the coupons and I thoroughly enjoyed watching the number go down and down we ended up with a total of $54.44 including the tax. That number would have been much lower had I not spied all the neat school supplies on sale that I wanted to pick up for a project I am working on. Even with that it included 5 boxes of crayons, 5 boxes of markers, 5 calculators, 20 glue sticks, 40 pens, 3 bottles of hydrogen peroxide, 2 boxes of band aids, and more. So all in all I am beyond thrilled with my shopping trip!!

The picture above is all of the totally FREE things we got. Even the tax for the laundry soap and cat food  was covered with overages on other coupons.
The list of freebies includes:
5 Purex Ultra Packs
1, 32 oz Stoneyfield French Vanilla Yogurt,
3 Oikos Greek Yogurts
1 lb. Oscar Mayer Thick Cut bacon
2 Meow Mix Pate Toppers
2 Folgers Instant Individual Packets
2 Earth's Best Organic baby Food
20 oz Diet Coke
20 oz Coke Zero

I'd say it was a pretty awesome trip!! So what has been one of your favorite trips to the store and how much did you save??

Win A Kindle Fire & Tales Of the Not Forgotten Book Review!!



About the Book: 

Follow these real-life stories as they take you on a journey to faraway lands and unknown faces. Travel through their challenges and see the hand of the great Storyweaver writing endings you’d never imagine!

Joel dares to ask for what he can’t have. Seraphina sacrifices what she can’t afford to give. Ibrahim looks for an answer buried out of reach. Christiana, saved by a mission, searches for her own.

These are the tales of the ones the world doesn’t see . . . the tales of the not forgotten.

In this collection of four real-life stories written for preteens, a compelling storyteller paints a picture of God’s dynamic movement in four foreign cultures, inspiring children to trust that God is weaving a story in their lives as well.

This resource will shrink the macro picture down to approachable, individual stories of real children and teach about fundamental survival issues. The stories address some of the challenging questions that kids have and weave God's promises to orphans into each one.

The Tales of the Not Forgotten Leader’s Guide is a 6-session kids' missions resource (sold separately) that walks adults through an easy-to-follow guide for making the abstract real and for designing an action plan to help others.

Preteens will be challenged to answer the questions:
How do I pray? What can I give? Where can I go? Who will I serve?



About Beth:

Beth Guckenberger and her husband, Todd, are the founders of Back2Back Ministries (based in Cincinnati, OH) which communicates a lifestyle of service by sharing the love of Christ and serving God through service to others.

Learn how you can join Beth in ministry at www.bethguckenberger.com or www.back2backministries.org.


What I Thought About The Book:
I was absolutely enthralled with this book!  I could not put it down. For years this very subject has been near and dear to my heart, so to see someone express many of the same things I have been thinking and saying in such a wonderful way is a blessing. Beth brought home the fact that all of our lives are intricately entwined and we can not escape that. She also enforced that there is something each and every one of us is called to do and we need to be receptive and obedient to that call. Although this book was written primarily for teens I can really see this being something to hit home with many adults. They need to hear this as much as the young people do.
I really love the Leader's Resource that came with it. So many helpful things are available to share this amazing book with a class to help inspire them to do the same as Beth and the others in the book.
