Find the Most Timeless Gifts at Russian Legacy
Since reading Judith Pella's Russian series, I have been fascinated with the culture. When I found Russian Legacy, I was incredibly impressed with their wide range of authentic Russian gifts and collectibles. I chose to review their unpainted Matryoshka, nesting dolls. |
My daughter and I have begun painting the dolls together. Aren't they darling? So original and they offer such creative inspiration! |
Made With Love Cooking #HolidayGiftGuide #Discount
Love Cooking Company has set out with a mission to make baking a simple task. Partnered with some great names in the baking and entertainment industries, Love has crafted bakeware that helps you easily achieve the best-looking baked goods on the table, from filled cakes to bite-size desserts and more. |
The Mrs. Fields Cutie Cakes pan creates 48 bite-size cakes when you need a small amount of something sweet. It's ideal for savory options, like mini corn dogs or potato pancakes. After you create your tiny treats, just pop the pan in the dishwasher. These are so adorable and bite sized! Any time I make them, everyone raves over them. |
The PushPan is a 100% watertight and leak-proof cake pan with a patented silicone-lined removable base making it perfect for cheesecakes, pies and more! An alternative to a spring-form pan, you simply place the pan on something sturdy, press the sides down, and voila - the perfect cake! |
The Mrs. Fields Fill N Flip is the easiest way to make a layered cake and create a surprise center that everyone will love. Once you bake your cake, add filling to the side with the large opening, place the non-filled layer on top, and enjoy! Plus, the pan is dishwasher-safe, making clean-up a breeze. I can't wait to get mine in the mail! |

Welcome to Honeysuckle Hollow! Li'l Woodzeez, This Week's #1 On Our Holiday Gift Guide
Welcome to Honeysuckle Hollow where all the woodland creatures work together to take care of each other and their environment. Li'l Woodzeez Countryside Cottage came with two bunnies, Emelia and Elliot Hoppingood, who you'll meet later. In this photo, the Fox and Beaver parents are arriving at the Hoppingood home to pick up the children after a date night. Mr. and Mrs. Hoppingood were good enough to babysit for them, something they often take turns doing, you see. |
|
Li'l Woodzeez are currently #1 on our gift guide because of their cuteness and affordability factors. Today until midnight, Target.com has a promotion for $10 off a $50 Li'l Woodzeez purchase, or $25 off a $100 purchase! Their shipping is also free. Plus many of their Woodzeez are on sale, some as low as $4.99! If they don't have the ones you want at your local Target, you can do free local pickup for most of them or have them delivered to your home. |
This is a collage of my youngest daughter's Li'l Woodzeez Wish List. Isn't that treehouse incredible?! We both agree that the Whooswhoos Owl Family would be the perfect ones to move in! |
In this video, Emelia Hoppingood prepares "Wonder Soup" for the children. You can find our recipe for this very delicious soup here.
My kids are crazy for animals!

Halloween is only 6 days away!
Are you ready?!
In between all the fun festivities,
there's candy to hand out to trick-or-treaters, lunch to feed my hungry
family, drinks to make sure I have ready for them to grab at a moments notice--AH! It can get a little overwhelming if I'm not prepared. So
today I headed to Wal-Mart to grab a few things to make sure we will be
prepared for a wonderful day of no-stress and all fun! At Wal-Mart, I picked up a STOUFFER'S® Family Size Entrée, NESQUIK® Ready to Drink Chocolate Milk, and NESTLÉ Jumbo Assorted Fun Size Candy. The candy was calling me name as soon as I walked in the store! The milk was easy to find in the juice aisle. And the lasagna was right with all of the other family-sized entrees.
|
We recently moved and I actually love shopping at the Wal-Mart in our new town. It's cozy, always open, not too crowded, and it's super easy to find everything I'm looking for. So now I've got drinks to go, a delicious dinner ready to throw in the oven, and a candy bowl filled with a variety of goodies... as long as I don't eat them all first. What's your favorite candy? What are you and yours going to do this Halloween? |

INVICTA Challenge’s Flash & Thunder Paratrooper! #Giveaway #HolidayGiftGuide
I have discovered an exciting and innovative new toy set: INVICTA Challenge! As a military veteran and a history lover, I think this toy is especially amazing and I knew it was perfect for our son! Their first set, Flash & Thunder, is based on a real person who was instrumental in helping turn the tide of WWII on D-Day. The toy is GI Joe style, made well with movable arms and legs, detachable helmet, backpack, and gun, and comes with a graphic novel and a ton of other stuff you'll hear about soon. |
“We want kids learning about heroes and leaders who can inspire them to their own greatness in a fun and compelling way. INVICTA is an acronym for seven key leadership traits: Integrity, Nobility, Valor, Initiative, Curiosity, Tenacity and Accountability. These traits are infused with every story. Our stories are highly visual and contain plenty of action and adventure.” -Jim Murphy, former Marine Corps infantry officer and creator of INVICTA Challenge
Christmas Eve is in exactly 2 months!

An Adorable Plush Puppy and Book Set from Operation ResCUTE #Giveaway
My little guy loves his new Jingles puppy! He liked him right away but loves him even more now that he's read his story and now that he knows that for every ResCUTE puppy that's purchased, 100% of the profits go to help shelter animals. I should mention that the real Jingles is a girl.... ours is a boy b/c my son has deemed him so. ;) |
Jingles is the first in the Operation ResCUTE series. My kiddos are already asking when there will be more puppies available! I think they're especially hoping for a Shih Tzu like our Lucy. |
We're adding Operation ResCUTE
to our Holiday Gift Guide because it's not only an adorable toy set,
but 100% of profits are donated to help rescue animals get adopted!

Celebrating Lucy and Pedigree Pet Month! #PedigreeGives
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #PedigreeGives #CollectiveBias
This month, we celebrate the day this sweet puppy followed us home. She licked our toes in our flip flops and we just couldn't ignore her. From the moment I picked her up that first time, I instantly fell in love! A year
later, we are so in love with our Lucy and we can't imagine life without
her! We wanted to celebrate all month long with special goodies for her and it turns out the whole country is celebrating with us because this is Pedigree Pet Month!
|
So yesterday, on our very first ever trip to Sam's Club (exciting in and of itself!) we headed to the pet food aisle to find the goodies. It's really awesome b/c when you purchase PEDIGREE® products at Sam's Club during the month of October, the PEDIGREE® brand will donate a bowl of food to a dog in need. They'll also donate a bowl of food for every photo upload to Instagram or Twitter of the dogs we love! Use the hashtag #LaterShelter for a chance to be featured on SamsClub.com. |
The kiddos and I made Lucy a PEDIGREE® Choice Cuts Dog Food House! In this photo, she had just finished snacking on one of their DENTASTIX®. |
She came running out when she smelled the Choice Cuts I had just opened and was spooning into her purple food dish. She stood and begged, patiently waiting! |
The purple food dish is invisible in this photo as she gobbles it down! |
Do you have a pet? Which was your favorite pet ever? If you have a dog, don't forget that Pedigree Pet Month is going through the end of October!
I've had many pets, but Lucy is definitely the best dog I've ever had... or have ever even known! I am so blessed!
We Are Astronomers! #NancyLarsonScience
I
finally discovered Nancy Larson Science and I love it because if I had
all of the expertise, all of the time, and all of the resources this is the curriculum I would have come up with!
As the kiddos finished up their Math assignment, I set up for Science class. I love this dresser along with its matching desk. Amazing Craig's list find! |
Each lesson is about 4 pages long and goes through everything you need to say and do in nice large print that makes discussion simple and effortless. |
Having fun with her Science, feeling like an Astronomer as she learns about our universe! |
I've just got to show you Science 1 even though we're not doing this
one. This is nearly the curriculum I put together for my kids in 2nd
grade so we're definitely on the same page! Doesn't this look like
fun?!
If you're looking into a better Science curriculum that will perfectly fit your family, definitely check out Nancy Larson! |
Special thanks to the wonderful people at Nancy Larson for providing us with Science 3 to review this year! All opinions are honest and our own.
