Praises of a Wife and Mommy

WELCOME TO THE PARTY Has a tampon ever made you look forward to your period? Does your maxi pad make you smile? Nope.  Most menstrual products only make the whole affair more uncomfortable.

A menstrual helper that doesn't leak, bunch, or feel bulky. And did we mention Party In My Pants pads come in the loveliest, wackiest, cutest patterns ever?

#ChewyReview RawNibs anyone?   If Kiah could write this review she would for sure give it two thumbs up! This cage-free chicken and liver recipe is freeze-dried with fruits and vegetables.   So far I have added a little bit to her normal food.  She thinks they are treats!  She gobbles them up right away and begs for more!   The kids have done tricks with her using these as rewards because again she thinks they are treats!   So far we are enjoying the RawNibs!   Please look for my review once Kiah has used it more!   About RawNibs: Give your pup or feline friend the supreme health benefits of a raw diet in Only Natural Pet RawNibs Chicken & Liver.

Happy Independence Day...well almost!   Have you heard of Color Street Nails ??   I hadn't either but I am so happy to share with you my thoughts.   A couple years ago I did the Jamberry nails and to be honest they took me forever and with the heat needed it made it an unbearable process in my opinions.    This is NOT the same as Color Street Nails!   The application is super easy and doesn't require any heat!   WINNING!!!  I purchased the fun festive one for 4th of July and I believe it was $13.  With that, I was able to do mine and my daughter's nails and toes!!!!  YES, ALL OF IT for only $13! I have had my nails on for a couple days now and have gardened (not wearing gloves and picking weeds so I was dirty) and worked hard and no chipping!   I am excited to look for other choices and make another order!   Go order here:    COLOR STREET ...

Tractors, Tractors, Tractors Oh MY!  We were able to see about 500 different tractors come to my small town in Iowa.  It is a 3-day parade event with the tractors.  Our church Riverside and nonprofit Royal Tea were sponsors of the event.  We made drinks and baked goods for the farmers and families.  It was a great day and fun to see the different ages of tractors!   There were even some female drivers too!  It was good fun! 

A time of changes, exciting opportunities and daunting newness, moving to a new house and neighborhood brings with it both feelings of fear and anticipation. However, as with most things, life changes can cause excess stress, and that is what might happen during moving day. It may be difficult to keep track of what to bring, what to leave behind and donate and what to leave in storage. With a few things to consider and planning, you can make this exciting and daunting life event as hassle-free as possible: Pack early One of the ways stress can manifest is through lack of preparation and feelings of lack of control. Don’t leave things last minute to prevent this and plan well in advance. Make a list of all the things you want to take with you to the new house, label boxes where things should go, and if you plan weeks early, you can gradually fill these boxes with the things on your list. Check your calendar; are you free on moving day? If not, make sure you book the day off. Alternati...
