Hulk 2012 Halloween Costume Discounters

Growing up I had a favorite show and unlike many little girls I liked to watch the Hulk. I liked action shows and enjoyed watching them with my dad. Now today my boys like the Avengers Superheros and the Hulk Smash, of course:) 

Can you image the looks on their faces when they pulled a Hulk Costume out of the box. It was followed by squeals and each of them sharing the suit and going through the house Hulk Smashing.

Muscled up arms and chest sewn into the suit to give them that big tough appearance with out being so bulking. It is not hard to move in, he had it on riding his bike. Hulk tattered pants and green legs at the bottom. The plastic mask with elastic string to hold it on.

We have always enjoyed Halloween, just the pure fun of dressing up. It doesn't have to be Halloween however; my boys enjoy dressing up like their favorite heroes all the time. You may want to check out Costume Discounters, we found some cool costumes there and follow them @CostumeDiscount.

Gourmet Perfection Pacific Beach Peanut Butter

The question has always been do you want smooth or crunchy peanut butter? After trying Pacific Beach Peanut Butter Spread, I see the new world of peanut butter flavors. My favorite was the Toffee  followed by the white chocolate, and the raspberry I wasn't to crazy about it. My oldest son liked it just the reverse order than me. Taste is all about each person personal preference.

The toffee had a slight crunch, but not like crunchy peanut butter just a perfect blend to still be considered smooth. A gourmet blend of perfection to my taste buds.

We tried the Bundle of Love Gift Set. This set contains THREE JARS of yummy All Natural Peanut Butters or Flavored Peanut Butter Spreads and arrives in a beautiful blue gift box with a gold ribbon and card, and of course a sterling silver "Pacific Beach" spoon. Attach your own message at check out.

Pacific Beach Peanut Butter is Gluten Free & CinnaYum Peanut Butter Spread with 0 grams of sugar. With so many flavor options to try, treat your taste buds. I have a different take on peanut butter now.

 Just as soon as my husband assembled it the boys were cleaning up and organizing their toys in it like professionals. Each bin had a use and they have kept their room more organized for the past few weeks. They are also using it as a shopping shelf when we play store. My oldest says please see our store display over here. Really great it can be used for both and they don't really realize their cleaning up.... I really enjoy seeing fun stylish children furniture especially for boys.

I know Step2 has durable long lasting play equipment my children have used for years. Their products have been dependable with my family and I get excited every time I see something new at Step2. Like the whole Corvette Bedroom Suite which includes the corvette bed with working lights, the corvette room organizer, and corvette dresser.

1st Dance

Last night was my son's first little dance. He had a blast and can't wait to do it again. He actually jumped out there and danced. He gave the little corsage to a little girl from his Pre-K class. I'm on my way to print some pictures to share with the grandmas.

Homemade Corsage

My son's school is having a little dance for them today. This one little girl and him were best friends in Pre-K. He asked the little girl's mom if her daughter could go to the dance. Sooo cute... I thought I would make a corsage to match the school colors. Think it turned out cute.

Missing Tooth

Yesterday morning breakfast, then a little rough play around the living room and my 5yr old said my tooth came out. I said let me see, waiting to see the tooth and empty space. He said, " I don't know where it is?" The most horrified look on his face. We looked and looked, I said you must have swallowed it.

He asked how we would get it out for the tooth fairy? Well we can leave her a note. NO mama, I got to have the tooth. Oh my, is he suggesting that I've got to.....oh no.

Walking through the kitchen there sit a breakfast plate on the counter top, luckily it was not dumped yet, there sat that baby tooth! It had came off while he was eating and there it was with biscuit crumbs. I was relieved. That's two bottom front teeth.

Tooth fairy gave 5 bucks for the front teeth. Someone is on his way shopping:)

Sweepstakes Safees Lifesaving Reflectors

Perfect for families out and about around Halloween, a product called Safees. The stylish & life saving reflective gear in the shape of cats, dogs, skull & bones, owls, hearts bears and more in different colors. 

I believe Safees will be an ideal must have item this Halloween. 15% off with code 'SafeesHalloween'. Safees are very easy to use just clip on and go. 

Without a reflector, walking on dark roads, cars can see you first when they are within 25-300 feet of you. At a speed even as low as 30 miles per hour they won't have a chance to stop in time.

By wearing a high quality Safees reflector you increase your visibility by anything from 300 to 700 percent. This means that by wearing a Safees a driver can see you over three times as far away. With a reflector you can be seen as far away as 950-1000 feet.

Wearing a Safees will reduce your risk of being hit by traffic in the dark by many times. MUST WATCH VIDEO:)

Safees is celebrating its US launch with a 'Back to School' Super Sweepstakes and Discount Bonanza! Safees are fun, colorful pedestrian traffic safety reflectors that increase your visibility in traffic by up to 500%, reducing your risk of getting hurt in an accident as much as ten times.
