Primo Water: A company I have been interested in working with for a loooong time. I love their products...plain and simple. Water coolers for home, office, and on-the-go that offer a "no waste" exchange program? Sign me up! Delicious water that's no more expensive that bottled water from the grocery store? Totally in! And the best thing about Primo Water...they sent us a REALLY cool bottom-loading water cooler. That means no heavy lifting for changing the bottles! I have found that our Primo Water Cooler really helps us drink more water. The girls can reach the buttons to dispense cool and cold water (which was challenging at first...but they now know its not for playing in) so they can grab cups and get a cold drink anytime they want. I drink TONS more water because of the easy accessibility. We have a water filtration thingy on the door of our fridge, but I never remember to change the filters and it only dispenses around 1 glass of cold water before the water is room temp. With our Primo Dispenser, I don't have to worry about that. I also have access to piping hot as well...great for jump starting a pasta dinner or making tea or cocoa. Best part of the hot water dispenser is the safety lever at the top. There is a red button that must be slid open to allow the button to be pushed, dispensing hot water. The girls know this button is a "no no" so they don't even touch it, but it sure is an added comfort knowing that its child resistant. (It is safe to have this dispenser around children, but nothing replaces your parental supervision. Ever.) All in all, we are THRILLED with our Primo Bottom-loading Water Cooler and are even more thrilled to give one away to our lucky winner!
Ju-Ju-Be: Y'all know how much I adore JJB. ADORE them. I looooove their diaper bags. You can read my review of the Pretty Tweet BFF here. Sooo excited to give away a Pretty Tweet print bag to our winner!
KONG: We have been fans of KONG Pet Products for a long time comin' now. Ever since I got little Athena (tear) back in 2005 I have been a faithful KONG lover. Treat Dispensers, Wubbas, Lovies...they make it all and I can say from 7 years of experience, its all the best on the market. Their products LAST. They are made to withstand whatever your dog can throw at them. Our favorite? Classic KONGs (with peanut butter inside, of course!) For this review, KONG sent us some new products to try out and I'm thrilled with both of them! The KONG Squeezz Ring has been Miss Bailey's favorite new toy (along with her 3-year-old KONG Wubba of course...it still looks new!) Bailey can toss this ring and then chase after it as it squeaks and bounces in a crazy pattern around the house or yard. Its also a great toy for encouraging the girls to play (constructively) with the dogs. Its easy for them to pick up and throw and equally easy for Bailey to grab it and bring it back. Jackson is totally smitten with his new KONG Cozie. We received the pink bunny Cozie Character and I immediately thought, "Awesome. I'm going to be cleaning up stuffing all afternoon." WRONG! This thing is indestructible! Jackson carries it around, takes it outside, brings it back in, snuggles it...basically he loves it. A LOT. And there are NO holes or stuffing leakage...despite day after day of Jackson-rated use. And I heard a little rumor that Santa has a pretty awesome gift stashed away for Little J & B for Christmas...the KONG Wobbler. I can't wait to see our two pups playing with this treat-dispensing entertainment system for dogs! We're also super-psyched that KONG is giving the lucky dog or cat in our winning family a $50 Prize Pack!
Radio Flyer: Its common knowledge that Radio Flyer has been around for like...ever. Companies don't last as long as RF has without being totally awesome and making totally awesome products. They just don't. That being said, of course we love Radio Flyer around here! Our classic metal play wagon is constantly trailing behind a bouncing little girl, our everyday wagon practically lives in the van because we take it everywhere and use it all the time, and now our little girls BOTH have Radio Flyer Trikes! Hensley got a pink and purple RF Trike for her first birthday...bless her little heart...she's just now old enough to ride it. (I'm not sure my parents paid attention to the "recommended for 3+" on the box) But, despite having little practice, she's like Lance Armstrong on our cul-de-sac. And Daycie has had to watch from the sidelines for quite some time...but not anymore! Radio Flyer sent us their ah-mazing 4-in-1 Trike to review and we are totally in LOVE with it. This thing does everything it says its going to do and more. Daycie can easily use it as a regular trike...and if she gets herself stuck somewhere, we can easily help her maneuver herself out. We have also used this as a stroller for the Farmer's Market. Its got a great storage area on the back (a Radio Flyer Standard) which has become Daycie's little "sidecar" for Teddy (her constant companion.) We're also sooo excited to offer our giveaway-winning family the Style N Ride Scooter (for girls) and the RFX Scooter (for boys!)
Busy Body Book: I have loved my BBB since working with them last year for a review. I'm totally hooked on their amazingly innovative planners and I'm thrilled to give one away to our winner!
Devo Olive Oil: Absolutely the most delicious olive oils and balsalmic vinegars I've ever tasted. Hands down. I never knew how bland traditional olive oil was until I tasted this stuff. Garlic, Tuscan Herb, Blood Orange...and that's just naming a few. I was SHOCKED at how flavorful my meats and veggies were after cooking with this delicious oils. And if you're a bread-dipped-in-oil kinda person, (you're already salivating) you're going to die for this stuff. Its like heaven...in oil and vinegar form. :) SOOOO excited to offer a 9-bottle sampler to our winner!
Amazon Rain: I will admit...I'm not good with "skin care routines." I'm a soap-and-water kinda girl. Until Amazon Rain, I wasn't even using a facial soap. When asked, "What's your skin care regimen?" my only answer was, "Ummm...clean it when I clean the rest of myself?" I've never struggled with acne or blemishes (other than the occasional pimple) and despite having clogged pores, I never thought a skin care "regimen" was something I really needed. Amazon Rain totally changed that for me. I have been using the 6-piece Skin Care System for almost a month now and my skin has never looked better. Its brighter, clearer, cleaner, and my pores are MUCH less noticeable than before. I have oily skin, so I've been using the Botanical Cleanser, Crystal Exfoliator, and Refreshing Mist as a daily 3-part regimen. At night, I use the Camu C Serum. I am loving the results. My skin is super happy and it shows! Our giveaway winner is surely going to LOVE getting pampered with this amazing 6-piece System!
Watergeeks: These cooler than cool little water bottles offer refreshment AND water purification anywhere anytime. They are perfect for little hands and durable since they're stainless steel. We love our Watergeeks bottles...they go to school with the girls almost everyday so we know our winning family will love them!
Fiesta Bakeware: This collectible bakeware is SUCH a popular gifting item that I was THRILLED to incorporate them in this giveaway package. We received the Deep Dish Pie Baker and the Rectangular Baker to review and absolutely LOVE them both. The Deep Dish Pie Baker is perfect for tons more than pies...Cinnamon Rolls on Saturday morning are a personal fave of ours, but we've also baked some casseroles in ours as well. We use our Rectangular Baker almost everyday in this house. Its HUGE so its perfect for casseroles, potatoes, cobblers, lasagnas...you get the picture. I have several recipes that I wasn't able to make because I didn't have a baker large enough and the Rectangular Baker has solved that problem. In addition, Fiesta Bakeware cleans easily and retains its gorgeous shine use after use. These are my first pieces of this collectible stoneware but trust me, they won't be my last. I've already sent the hubster some links to other pieces I'd like to see under the tree on Christmas morning and ordered a few to give as gifts this year! Our winning family will be able to whip up some amazing holiday deliciousness with these awesome pieces!
Wendell August: The Holidays definitely mean "entertaining" to a lot of people and thankfully, Wendell August has got us all covered. Interesting, unique, and gorgeous showpieces abound on their website...abundant with gift items for everyone on your list. We received the Waterfall Salad Set to review (and so will our winner!) and I'm in loooove with it. Serving salad has always been a challenge for me...do you pre-bowl or just let everyone self-serve? And the Salad Bowl itself...most of them are too large to use for anything else. The Waterfall Salad Set is PERFECT. Its stunning, unique, and just the right size to house an ample salad or use for another serving purpose. Its also a GREAT gift...either for the holidays, as a housewarming present, or wedding gift! Wendell August is a company that I will return to time and time again for great gift items. Like this Wintersong Mixed Metal Hostess Tray -- this thing has my MIL's name written all over it. :)
Mini-Play Makeup: More than once, my mischievous Littles have gotten into my makeup and unknowingly destroyed several expensive items. While they are darling with make-up faces, my MAC Lipstick and Bobbi Brown Mascara aren't really what I want to see slathered all over them. Its adorable, but then I remember that they just blew through $50 in makeup in two seconds flat. Immediately the adorable part isn't so adorable anymore. Not to mention the stains on their clothes! Little D destroyed a brand-new Hanna with my foundation once...such a sad day...for both the Hanna AND the foundation (it was Jabot!) Another time, I found Hensley squirting an ENTIRE bottle of Eye Makeup Remover down the drain..."Look Mommy! Bubbles!" Mini-Play Makeup to the rescue! Their adorable Make-Up sets look JUST like real make-up, so my little Divas can sit in the bathroom with me and get all dolled up right along with me...and I can breathe a sigh of relief that my ridiculously expensive makeup and their ridiculously expensive clothes are all going to make it through in tact. We're definitely hoping our winning family will enjoy a Deluxe Play Make-up Set because we LOVE ours!
Buckleyboo: Soooo cool. Buckleyboo is a company designed for kids...and their growing brains. Their line of adorable plush characters are buckle-laden, so your little one can love on them AND practice motor skills at the same time. We received the purple Buckleybunny to review and I was surprised at how big it was! 17" is hard to imagine....but this Bunny is LARGE....perfect for two little girls to sit and play with together! H and D have a great time unbuckling and rebuckling all the different buckles. Buckleybunny also has a jingling rattle inside so it makes a nice sound when jostled around. Apparently Teddy is pretty fond of Buckelybunny too, because I often find them laying together after Daycie puts Teddy down for his nap. ; ) We love our Buckleyboo and LOVE the concept behind this product! Sooo excited that our giveaway winning family will get to experience Buckleyboo!
AC Moore: Hands down, AC Moore is the best craft store around. I am sooooo excited to be working with them for this blog giveaway and I have quite a few amazing tutorials on the way using AC Moore's products (that you'll ALWAYS find at a great price!) I have run into some copyright infringement involving my tutorials so the posts are still in draft form to protect my work until I have some copy-protection software installed. In the meantime, thank you so much to AC Moore for contributing to this amazing giveaway package!
Zutano: Oh Zutano, how I love thee. The fact that Zutano is based in Vermont already makes them a fave for me. The fact that they make some ADORBSAUCE clothing puts them super high on my list for places to buy my girls digs. The fact that their clothing is high-quality, durable, and fits well puts them dang near the top of that list. I loooooove Zutano. Everything coordinates and matches so you can buy several pieces and mix and match them to create lots of outfits, which is perfect for this mother of two girls who aren't quite twins, but love dressing alike. It also helps that they wear the same size, so I'm constantly sharing clothes between their closets. :) We received some AMAZING fall pieces to review -- The Secret Garden Toddler Pleat Dress, Super Stripe Toddler Pleat Dress, Toddler Skinny Legging in Pool and Pink, and the Toddler Bodice Jacket in Pool and Chocolate. (Can you even handle those coats? Cos I can't.) My favorite parts about these items are....the fact that everything matches everything else. Dressing them in the morning is a cinch. The fact that everything fits properly. There is nothing more annoying than ordering your child a 3T when he/she fits into a 3T only to fit that such-and-such brand runs small or large and doesn't fit. Zutano will never do that to you. Everything fits as it should. LOVE that. Even better? It STILL fits as it should after washing it! SCORE! I am thrilled that our giveaway winning family will have a $150 Shopping Spree at Zutano.com to experience this amazing brand for themselves!
And now.....without further ado....the announcement you've been waiting for....OUR WINNER!!!
Entry number 4714 -- Wendy V.! Congrats Wendy!!!
