Organic Eye Serum



I have 9 kids so you can imagine the bags under my eyes some days. I was getting so tired of people asking me why I was always so drained and tired looking. Thankfully after using this for a few weeks now I don't heard that anymore. This eye serum has really improved the look of my eyes overall. 

I was thrilled this didn't leave a sticky residue and felt great going on. My eyes felt recharged and bright after using this. 


I was surprised how well it worked to smooth the fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes. This is really a great product, even better because it's organic! Overall a top quality serum. 

I recommend this to the tired.

Cool Minecraft Avatars Review



My kids love minecraft and any book that can keep their attention is five stars in my mind! This book was easy for my 8 year old to read alone. She enjoyed seeing all the aviators and thinking of some she could design herself. 

The book didn't make much sense to me, but then I don't play minecraft. Apparently it was awesome according to my children and in the end it's their opinions that matter on this. 

My four year old just kept saying I'm Steve. That's who he always plays as. 

Overall a great book for minecrafters!

I recommend this to minecrafters!

Candy Labels



My daughter had a luau sweet 16 and these were perfect for using on some of the favors. I bought some blue and pink hard candy and stuck these right to the bottom. 


There are so many awesome designs to choose from. For us we picked the shells to go along with our theme. It was so easy to use. Just like peeling and sticking a sticker. 


The set comes with enough labels to do a ton of candy and that extra touch makes a huge difference. It shows thought and care was put into every aspect of a party!

Overall these are great quality!

I recommend these to anyone having a party!

Adeline Hyaluronic Acid Serum



There are some great serums out on the market and this is one of them. It's rare to find a serum that doesn't leave a nasty film on my face. This one leaves my skin clean and smooth, not sticky or oily. 


I love the fresh feeling when I massage this into my face. It's like my skin coming alive! It absorbs quickly so I can put my makeup on soon after using it. 

I couldn't be more pleased with the results either, my fine lines and wrinkles have been getting less and less noticeable as this serum smooths my skin. I have also noticed my coloration evening. 

Overall this is a top quality serum. 

I recommend this to everyone!

Titan Elite Quarter High Basketball Socks





My son loves these socks. Not only are they comfortable, but absorbent. I have to say they don't stink like his other socks after he's worn them all day. 


They are thick and well made. The padding is in the right place to make them even more comfortable. He says these are the best socks he's ever owned to play sports in. 


They came in a few colors, but are all well made and top quality. 

I recommend these to anyone looking for a great pair of socks.

Top It Off - Eco Friendly - Wine Stoppers (4 pack)



These are not only funny, but very handy to have around. They keep me laughing and my wine fresh! It doesn't get better than that. I mean seriously if there was a man who could do those two things I'd probably leave my husband for him! 


The tops fit securely on the lips of my bottles and stays in place, keeping my wine fresh even after it's been opened. I love knowing I don't ahve to finish a bottle in a sitting and it will still be alright. 


The writing on the bottles is not only funny, but true. I laugh every time I read them! They are well made and durable as well. Overall a quality product. 


I recommend these to all wine lovers.

Who decides what we buy?




I have never owned a rebel flag. I've never seen the purpose. I'm not southern. I can put claims on a family member fighting for the confederacy. In fact quite the opposite. I come from a long line of Pennsylvania farmers who fought for the north. I also can't claim to know the history of that flag and what it stood for, nor do I really care to find out. I kind of have been scanning past all the facebook posts. I will say however, take the flag down at the capital. Why? Because it shouldn't be there to begin with. Not because of what it does or doesn't stand for, but because all that should be there is the American flag and the state flag.


 I do have an issue with stores telling people what they can or can not buy. I mean come on now? Do we seriously live in an age where if one group of people are offended by something others can't buy it? As a Christian I am offended by this being sold::


I however, am not calling for it to stop being sold. People have a right to buy what they want and that is none of my business. People have a right to buy what they want no matter how others feel about it. It's sort of like freedom of speech. You can say what you want in America no matter how stupid or wrong it may be. 

Now I know not everyone is a Christian and isn't offended by such a book being sold so lets look at some other products sold by a company who stop allowing the confederate flag to be sold on their site. How about these for example: 


If those don't offend most people I don't know what will. I mean millions were killed under these symbols for their religion. Just saying....

Yet this is banned from being sold: 


Come on people I think we have a problem here!

What's next to get banned? When will we say enough we can make our own choices?

Greenwald's Glass & Hard Surface Cleaning Kit.


This is one of the best streak free glass cleaners I have ever used. I don't think my windows have been this clean since the day they were installed. I am so thrilled with the results I know this will be my go to glass cleaner from now on!

This Greenwald's glass cleaner is easy to mix. Just add water and a packet of condensed cleaner into the provided spray bottle and shake. It's that simple. It makes quite a bit of cleaner too, saving me time and money. I won't have to run to the store all the time for new glass cleaner. It's also part of living green since I reuse the same spray bottle instead of buying a new one! 

Greenwald's has other awesome cleaners to check out as well!

I recommend this brand to everyone!

Of course you have to poop!

She looks cute but approach with caution! 


I have found a few things to be a guarantee in our family. I'm not sure how other families are. We are either completely normal or totally weird. I guess after posting this I will find out. I expect all my readers to be honest with me and tell me if we are strange (Beyond being strange for having 9 kids that is). So here goes:

Every time, and I mean every time it's time to clean someone has to poop. In fact everyone has to poop. They suddenly develop constipation too as it takes each person twenty minutes to go. The word cleaning must make the poop stick or something? Perhaps I should bring this up the next time they go to the ped.

If something of theirs comes up missing they are quick to know exactly which sibling must have did it. If something gets broke no one knows nothing. It must have been a mean fairy that comes in to break stuff and leaves to let the kids take the fall for it. In a family our size something gets broken daily. How is it no one ever sees anything?

At dinner someone always takes an hour to eat. This is usually a ploy to not have to clean up after dinner, do homework etc. Let there be the promise of ice cream or going outside after dinner and suddenly everyone is a speed eater! I mean they can put a hot dog down in two bites!

This one is mostly the teens. They will ask me for advice. If they don't like said advice I get yelled at and told to mind my own business.... I'm still trying to process that one. If anyone can help me out understanding let me know. And for the love of everything Holy NEVER!!!! NEVER EVER EVER EVER tell them the truth about how something looks on them if it looks bad. YOU WILL REGRET IT!

If someone is mean to one of the kids they are mean to all of the kids. Let someone pick on one of the younger siblings and there will be an older siblings right there to "deal with it". It's like having their own little secret service. However, when at home they have no problem making fun of each other or "accidentally" throwing something that "accidentally" hits someone, calling names, just being overall nasty at times.

The number one thing I can always count on. When I am at my wits end, when I feel like things can't possibly get any worse. There is a kid there to hug me, kiss me, make me laugh and I know deep down our family is perfectly fine!

Overall these are wonderful!

I recommend these to anyone looking to make their own lamps.

Greenwald Carpet & Fabric Stain Remover review



This fabric and carpet cleaner is amazing. It not only takes out stains that have already set in my rug, but odors as well. I love that I can use this on my couch and my rug. It is so convenient. This kit comes with everything I need to make a ton of this high quality cleaner. . 


The kit comes with an easy to use spray bottle. I just mix it with water and drop in the packet of cleaner. It's that simple. I'm ready to clean within minutes! I love that this gaves me a lot of time and money because I don't have to keep running to the store over and over. I just mix it up as needed. 


Overall this is a top quality product. 

I recommend this to everyone with rugs!
