Valentines with Crayola

tabbyspantry

We got the Crayola Valentines free in exchange for an honest review

 

Crayola is one of our favorite company’s.  They have the perfect products for so many holidays.   Every Valentines day little guys school leaves it till the last minute to tell me if they are doing anything.  It is now 3 days before Valentines day and they are sending home a list of names and whats allowed and what not today.  Nothing like leaving no time to get it done right.

Now my son does not last long with coloring so the Valentines Mailbox was perfect.  He actually enjoyed coloring the mailbox.  It also came with stickers to color, 24 Valentines and some markers.  This was perfect because the school has a hour for kids to play with their valentines but there is no eating of the sugar.  We we also gave a few packs of Crayola pens so the kids could have fun decorating them during that hour.

The Crayola String Of Hearts is so much fun to decorate out home with.  This was a more hands on for our little guy.  This set makes 24 hearts that can be decorated and strung together.  This is also a great sensory activity for your little ones. It comes with the clay the pens, string, and the mold.

Want even better news you can run out today and get these sets.  they have them at local stores like Walmart.  make sure when you run by pick up a few sets of the String Of Hearts its a great activity for next time you are all stuck in the house.

Bel Essence Soap Box

We got this Bel Essence box free in exchange for an honest review.

As you all know I am finding some of the most awesome Valentines Day gifts for you to give.  Bel Essence Soap Box is not different.  The only thing I would love to add to this is why wait till you have to give a special gift.  This is a great box to buy and have on hand to give them for a special present or even just a I was thinking of your gift.  I love to find great Soap boxes and it makes bath time so special.

They not only have 2 different Soap Boxes to choose from they have this awesome soap with a loofah layer.  I think this is one of the most awesome things I have ever seen.  The boxes range from $28 – $55 and the Loofah soap is only $16.50.  You could buy a few and keep on hand for when they just have a bad day or you just want to say I Love You.

I love that this box comes ready to give and each soap is wrapped.  It’s like opening a lot of presents in one. The soaps smell fantastic and they are perfect size.  These are great to use in the bathtub or even have next to the sink.

I would 100% recommend Bel Essence Soap Box to everyone.

 

FORD V FERRARI Movie Review

tabbyspantry

 We got FORD V FERRARI Free in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own 
From Daytona to Vegas and Back Again, Fans Gather to Celebrate FORD V FERRARI, Arriving on Digital January 28
and on 4K Ultra HD™, Blu-ray™ and DVD February 11

 

I have to admit I had no idea what this movie was about before I had seen it.  My husband has always been a huge car guy. I on the other hand am lucky to remember what color my car is lol.  I was very surprised to find out I loved this movie.

When ford sale start to drop they try and figure out how to fix the sales.  Why not get more into racing right?  Then why not buy the best race car out there and use their designs Ferrari?  When they find out Ferrari was just using them to get a better offer the race is on.  Ford wants to win now and they find some of the best to help them build the perfect car.

When Ford passes up on the best driver they can have because they don’t think he is Ford material they soon learn that maybe they should change the way they are thinking.  It’s time to go to war and they plan on winning.

When an accident happens they almost loose it all.  This will not stop them from getting to their goal.

If you find what you truly love to do then you will never work a day in your life.  This is something that I was always told and watching these guys you can see that’s true.

I was so excited for this movie I not only learned a lot I found my self googling to see more after.  That is how you know you got an awesome movie.

Heading to College Make Sure To Check Out Scholarships

Picture Credit

These days if you want to go to College you have to have already been saving for many years,  Take out a ton of student loans or if you are thinking ahead start researching College Scholarships now.  There are many Scholarships out there and some are very specific.

If you start your research now you can be ready when its time to apply.  When I was in school the school consular had binders filled with Scholarships you could apply for.  Some were so specific that if you had not already done the requirements years in advance you were never going to get it.  I would suggest starting freshman year.  Start researching which ones you would like to apply for and what info you will need start doing the requirements now.

 

I lucked out that when i went in to apply I had already had some of the requirements for a FFA Scholarships and one from our local church.  There are so many local, state wide and even country wide that if you get a head start on these you could be set for your college years.

Now which ones would you apply for.  Apply for every thing you need.  There are ones specific for college entry fees, ones or food, ones for housing, ones for books and so much more.  For a lot of us these days if it was not for these we would not be able to go an further our education.

Now I don’t know if this is better or worse but now a days you can also research them on lie and be ready.  Now why I say this might be worse.  In my day unless people took the time to go threw the binder at school they were not applying.  Now anyone can research from their home so you will have a lot more people applying then we did back in the day.

Searching ones like Hallie Gay Bagley is going to give you a great start on your search.  Now when researching also make sure to see what their requirements are for keeping the Scholarship.  A lot of them have a minimum GPA or other requirements for getting and keeping that scholarship.

 

Make sure no matter what you do in your High School Years to stand out.  Make sure to Volunteer  when and where you can.  Join your school activities. Travel when you can and document everything you do.  You never know what big thing or little thing will make you the stand out in your application.  Everything you do for now on will be a refection of you and that is what they will be looking for.

Have you been looking for a fantastic gift for him this year?  Cologne is a great gift for not only him, but for you too.  Who does not like their man to smell fantastic?  The man shop Bae Cologne is not only priced great but smells fantastic.

Now when I first opened it I though well this is not the Cologne for us.  I forgot to give it a minute to breath all I could smell was the original kinds alcohol smell.  You know that one.  The one every cologne and perfume smells like on the fist spray.  Hubby said let me try and sprayed it again and bam I could not actually smell it. Lol

The Man Shop, a Men’s grooming and niche fragrance maker based in New York. Their Bae Men’s Cologne is wonderful Valentine’s Day Gift. It’s made in the workshop and is a warm, bay rum-inspired cologne.  Which is funny because I had no idea where it was based from and the first thing I thought was wow this smells like the guys from NY.  I love NY there is a special something about it and this cologne reminded me of it right away.

SHASHI Cool Feet Socks

We got SHASHI Cool Feet Socks free in exchange for an honest review.

I am going to be a little TMI here.  My feet are always cold.  I have to change my socks like 4 times a day.  While I always thought it was because I needed thicker and warmer socks I was wrong.  I needed cooling socks.  My feet were so sweaty that they were always wet and that is why I needed socks to keep my feet cool.

These socks not only keep your feet cool they have such cute designs.  Socks should always be cute and I can wear these with anything and they make a statement.  They have a ton of colors to choose from and a ton of different designs.  I have one pair of tennis shoes that I can never wear.  I have to wear socks with them but the way they are cute most socks look weird.  these fit perfect and looked great.
