Review - Starry Laser Lights Projection Christmas Lights

I love this laser light! My son has been wanting one for Christmas for a couple years and is so excited to be able to use it this year. The lights are very bright and cover a large amount of area. I just used it in my room with the sun still out and you can see it very well, as you can see from the picture.



The product comes in green and blue, green and red, and as well as red and blue. It is at a great price point at this moment! I can't wait to use it in a few weeks! I more in likely be using it on twinkle!! Once I put it out on the house, I'll add some pictures!!

Flawless Voxbox

If you have not signed up for influenster, do so now, HERE!! IT is absolutely free and you receive products for you to review. If you have any questions DM me on Instagram and I can help you!

I loved this voxbox! It was all about me again. It's like they know me and what I want to try and already use.  CRAZY!!! There were 2 items that I already use, which was great to get a free sample of!



The Dr. Teal came cut open, but I tried to save as much as possible. I use this brand religiously, to detox at least once a week, so it's nice to receive a freebie! I added it to my protein container on the product I already had. :)




The Harvest snaps taste great! I was really looking at this product and thinking none of us would eat it, but low and behold, we all enjoyed them. They have a great crisp to them and they have the after taste of peas. They are a little salty, but I can get over that because the Mg's of salt aren't that much.  I love when I can find healthy treats for my kiddos. I looked at our local Kroger, but they didn't have them. I'm going to have to go down the road and check the HEB!


The simple cleansing cloths are amazing. I have been using them for a few months before this, when I bought them from Target. It's great when you get a product for free that you already love X2!!

It doesn't dry my face out and doesn't have a strong smell. I only have to use one wipe, I could probably cut it in half! It gets everything off of my face plus my mascara! Therefore, I don't have racoon eyes afterwards!! That's a plus!

Here's the video of everything that came with my voxbox!

Mercari

If you haven't heard of Mercari, you are behind on times. :p

It is a awesome app to sell anything you could imagine. I like to think it's like eBay, but newer! I've only had it 2 weeks and have already made $50 from selling unwanted items in my household! I've sold extra Proactiv that I couldn't use, baby clothes, clothes that didn't fit me, etc.

All you have to do it print the slip after you've sold the item, box it up and drop it off at the post office and your money is deposited into your pay pal once the buyer reviews you. Simple as that!

Sign up today with my referral code and we both earn $2 toward any purchase in the app!! Go HERE and use code RUVEMJ

Goop

We made goop today and Aribelle had a blast!
At first she was scared of it. When I would ask her to touch it she would say no, and back up. She's a very lenient little girl. Once she finally got over it, she couldn't get enough.
We didn't have a plastic bowl unfortunately, and had to make it in a glass bowl. So I transferred it into a plastic cup for her.

All you do is put cornstarch and water. I used about 1/2 cup of stretch to 1/4 cup of water. Mix it and add water if needed.

Remember it is messy, but easy to wash, so don't let your little wear something you don't want to get dirty.

Next time we will be adding food coloring to make different colors.

She had a blast!!

SeaWorld San Antonio vacation 2016!!!

So we went to SeaWorld San Antonio for the third time and had a blast! We decided to go the first week of June and it was perfect! Hardly any lines and it was not too hot yet!
We got there early, since we had tickets for the Beluga Whale experience. It was a complete mess for check-in, even though we had reservations. They just opened Discovery Point, so they were still fixing all of the bugs. We were told to get to the park at 9:15am and weren't allowed in until 9:45 with everyone else. Then we waited, for what seemed like forever for them to get us ready for the experience. Finally at about 11am we were suited up and ready for the ride over to Beluga Bay

We loved it. Even though my son, daughter, and I had tickets, my husband and baby were able to come to the back with a spectator ticket and watch us! The kiddos enjoyed meeting all of the Beluga Whales and doing tricks with them. We even got to take a picture one of them!

After trekking back to the other side of the park to change, we had to shimmy across to a little further than we were to Shamu, with lunch with the Killer Whales. This was our second time having lunch with them and it's absolutely wonderful. You eat a buffet while the Killer Whales are in the background playing and watching you. One of the babies was interested in what was going on and kept jumping on the deck to watch us all eat. At the end, there is a 20-30 activity session with the Killer Whales, where they show different tricks and talk about each individual whale.

Once lunch was done, we got to enjoy the park with no other adventures waiting for us. So first off, was going to roller coasters and letting the kids have fun. Once we got to The Great White, we found out that my son was too short, by one inch. So it was just me and my daughter to ride that one. She had a blast, so we went one more time, since there wasn't a line. While we did that, my husband took my son to the arcade to play some games since he was upset.

After The great White we went to the Steel Eel. This one we knew my son could ride, since he's rode before. We went through three times since there was no line once again.

By this time, the baby was ready to get out of the stroller and play herself. So we went to the Sesame Street Bay of Play for her to get rid of some energy. They big kids ran off any enjoyed the area themselves and we ran around the splash pad with her. It had been her first time at a splash pad and she had a blast! Even after getting water to the face, she couldn't get enough.



Overall, we had a great day with the kiddos and can't wait to go back another time. Who knows what we will conquer next year!

Revive Voxbox

This is my second voxbox from Influenster. When. I first saw that I was receiving it I wasn't very excited. Then I realized what was coming in it, and was thrilled. I am training for a triathlon and a coffee addict, so what more could I need, other than what was coming in this box!


It came with 3 different protein powders, a blender bottle, 3 different k cups, Shea Moisturizer product, and snack wells cookie sample. Everything was great, but the Whey Tech. Not a strawberry fan. HAHA! All 3 k cups for to die for! They are also compositable. The Shea Moisturizer products made my hair so soft and manageable. My curls didn't frizz the entire day. It also smelled like I was at a island bar drink a refreshing drink!

Healthy Baby Home Party

I had the opportunity to host a Healthy Baby Home Party through Seventh Generation. My group had a blast and first off want to thank Seventh Generation for giving me the opportunity to host a party. If you haven't signed up for the Generation Good Community click HERE.

The kit included a range of discussion topics, including How to improve indoor air quality, manage pests in your garden, and which produce to buy organic, and more! You can find out more about the come clean discussion HERE. It's time for companies to #comeclean about the ingredients they use in their products!
As a group we got to sample Seventh Generations diapers, wipes, and dish soap. As well as a bobble bottle and Zarbie's Cough Syrup. The diapers worked really well and I did not have a problem with them leaking at all. I've been using their wipes already. They are thicker than Pampers or Huggies and clean easier. I've also been using their dish soap for a few years and its the only one that I purchase.
Overall, everyone had a blast and couldn't have received any better items to throw the party! I had a few pregnant friends that couldn't show up so I sent them bags to try out the products themselves. Thanks again Seventh Generation.
Don't forget to sign up HERE

I received everything for the party for free for my groups unbiased opinion.

Review - 100% Pure & Natural Stretch Mark Remover Essential Oil Blend 4th Batch

This Phytopia stretch mark removal essential oil blend smells amazing! Sort of Rosey with a perfume. I know it's very seldom that a product will work to remove stretch marks, but I decided to try any way. I've only used it for 3 days and no difference yet. But will update if I do see a difference. It can also be used as a scar diminisher and massage oil.

Review - 9.8ft/3M 60LEDs Rope Lights

This light strand is great! I purchased it to put on to the back of my daughters bed. I didn't want something that plugged in, so this product fits great, since it is a battery pack. They battery back isn't too big, so it is perfect for a light behind a head board or in a glass vase for an entry way. I am thinking about getting a few more for glass vases! When I first opened the amazon box, I saw how small the box was and was not impressed.



Upon opening the box and examining the product, I saw that they can be extended. It extends quite a bit, as you can see in my picture. It actually extends much more than my daughter's queen size bed. My only complaint is that I am not sure what the difference is on 1 & 2. It doesn't look any different. Remember the product does take 3AA batteries, that aren't included. Overall I am happy with this purchase.

Review - Bento Lunch Box Containers Food Portion Control

I can't wait for school to start, since I now have these 7 Bento Boxes! They are quite big and will be great for my 5th graders as well as me for our lunches. They fit regular sized bread and 2 sides.



They are easy to wash and stack on top of each other for storage. I use then daily. I just don't put anything greasy in them because I dont want to mess them up.



Love that I can stay ahead now with easy meal prep for the kids for the week and not have to worry about anything sliding together.

Review - Julienne Vegetable Peeler

This vegetable/cheese grater is great! I used it on apples, soft cheeses, greens, and potatoes and it has worked well on all of them. It took me a few minutes to not have to stop after each swipe, but once I held my thumb in the little hole it worked well. It's easy to take apart and clean. It feels sturdy and doesn't feel like it's going to come apart easily.

Review - The Battle for Darracia: Books I-II-III

This book is great! I purchased it for my 10 year old son for the summer into 5th grade. He has really enjoyed reading it.



I love that all 3 books are in one and that I didn't have to get 3 different books. I had never heard of the author and feel like he did a great job on it. It is a easy book to read other than the names, bit I told him to make them up if he didn't know how to pronounce them.
Review from my son: I love this book! It's about a world called Draccia and a prince named V'siar. I was into the book by the first chapter and couldn't put the book down.

Review - 3 Keliwa Silicone Muffin & Cupcake Baking Pan

I love this muffin pan! It is so simple to use and easy to clean compared to metal ones!

I decided to make poached eggs for my first use and it was fast and easy! I tried it a while back in my metal pan and it was a mess. The egg came out good, but when I went to take them out of the pan they all busted and were messed up. With this pan they easily slid out and didn't break! Amazing!

It was simple to clean with soap and water and not too much scrubbing! I can't wait to use this pan more!

Review - Cove Castile Soap - Lavender

I ordered the Cove Castile soap in lavender, you can get it in unscented as well, and am extremely happy with this purchase. It smells as if I am at the spa, all alone, and no kids, but I'm not! The bottle is huge as well!! I was not expecting a 1 liter bottle when I made my purchase. Therefore, it should last a while. I have no complaints about this product at all, just love. Highly recommend it if you are looking for something to help moisturize or love the smell of lavender! On the bottle the company even gives you many different ways to dilute the product, if you are unsure on how much to use.
