#RedCarpetReady with @Dailyscocktails and @EatWholly

RedCarpetReady   I do not typically watch the red carpet portion of the awards shows but when I was chosen by @EatWholly and @dailyscocktails to host this ultimate #Oscars party, I was super excited. I absolutely love all the Wholly products, the classic medium salsa is by far my fav. The spicy guacamole was also a big hit at our #RedCarpetReady party. The kit I received included three varieties of Wholly Guacamole, three varieties of Wholly Salsa, three wholly stress toys shaped like avocados  2 wholly chip clips, 2 Daily's Cocktail glasses, a red carpet to roll out, and a $20 Walmart gift card to purchase the Daily's Cocktails. 4d384cc42be92e2bdcb0da4ca59e7597
 Our party night started off with tortilla chips and wholly salsa, cajun chicken kabobs with guacamole dip, and ended with our Daily's Cocktails :) The flavors of Daily's cocktails we enjoyed were: Frozen Lemonade, Pina Colada, Strawberry Margarita, Margarita, and Pomegranate Margarita. The best flavor for me was the Pina Colada..though the Frozen Lemonade was a close 2nd.

After digging in to all the great foods and drinks, we watched "End of Watch" with . The movie is shot documentary-style, this film follows the daily grind of two young police officers in LA who are partners and friends, and what happens when they meet criminal forces greater than themselves. The movie was hard to follow at first but tied together at the end.

With the $20 gift card I was able to purchase quite a few Daily's Cocktails for my friends and myself. They were only $1.97 at our Walmart but I have seen them as low as $1.88 at Shop N Save. You can also use the Wholly Locator or the Daily's Locator to find products at stores near you. Be sure to like, follow, and pin both of these great sponsors below.

Review~Dapper Snappers Toddler Belt


Recently I received the opportunity to review a kids belt from Dapper Snappers. I must say I LOVE THIS BELT. It is so easy to use, it does not effect my toddler from using the potty, and I even used it on my 11yr old :)


About Dapper Snappers: This GENIUS product consists of a short piece of suspender elastic with snaps that fits in the back 3 belt loops of the child's pants and snaps over the outer 2 loops to cinch the pants thereby keeping them from falling down. In essence, it's a kind of toddler belt.


Dapper Snappers "Fix Droopy Drawers in a Snap!" and are a smart, cost-saving alternative to adjustable waist pants for skinny toddlers and preschoolers.

Dapper Snappers are:

*Versatile in a wide range of colors for girls and boys
*Recommended for ages 9 months -6 years old and One Size Fits All
*Perfect for kids who are in between sizes or wearing hand-me-downs!
*Adjustable to 4 sizes
*Convenient - no need to remove for diaper changes & doesn’t impede potty training
*100%  in the USA
*Mom-invented

If you are looking for a money saving solution to a common childhood wardrobe malfunction, Dapper Snappers are for you! Only $10.95 for the Toddler Belts

What Daddy Duck Loves + Rubber Duck by DaddyScrubs Review & Giveaway Ends 2/15




Recently I had the opportunity to review a book from DaddyScrubs.com. It was called What Daddy Duck Love. It came with a cute little rubber ducky too.


Book Description: Daddy Duck loves to spend time with his ducklings while they surf and play in the sand at the beach. Just like Daddy Duck, you too can enjoy spending time with your children while you read this story, and others in the series, together — sharing in smiles and laughter while discovering what it is Daddy Duck loves most of all!


Review: My husband, our 3yr old son, and 18mo old son read this book together. It has great, vibrant photos that help keep the attention of little ones, and a wonderful little story to go along with it. This is awesome if you want to buy "daddy to be gifts". The book is full of activities that dads can do with their little ones, girls or boys. Also who wouldn't want an adorable character right out of the book to play with. It makes bath time exciting.

This was a great bonding experience for both my husband and my children and I would definitely recommend this gift set to anyone. The What Daddy Duck Loves + Rubber Duck gift set retails for only $15.99.
