Praises of a Wife and Mommy

Mentioned before but "GO PACK GO"  but you will also hear me cheering Go Jennings GO because if he scores a touchdown on Sunday in the NFC championship game A&W will be selling their amazing, yummy, huge, papa burgers for only $.85 cents on Monday!!!!  :)  Believe me you will be full after half of it!  :)  You will have to check your store if it is participating but I live in WI so I would assume all WI A&W's would participate!  "GO JENNINGS GO"! So who is joining me on Monday at A&W?  :)  :) :)

Its that time of year when the temps drop below 0 and the wind chill makes it feel bitter.  In Wisconsin we always get wind chill advisories and tonight is one of the nights where you are under lots of blankets and wish you had a fireplace.  The low for tonight is -17 and with the wind chill it might feel like -30!!!  30below 0 thats when you have to pack a blanket in the car just in case you have a car issue, which many cars in WI are probably having to get a jump today and tomorrow.  I have a subbing job tomorrow and I am kinda hoping they have a late start!  :)  Many schools have to consider the number of kids who wait outside for the bus.  If you have skin uncovered you can get frost bite in just a matter of minutes.  I remember a couple 4 years ago we had wind chill's that were -50 degrees!  It gives families a reason to stay in and do things indoors, games, movies, baking, cleaning! Anyone else in a deep freeze?  What are you doi...

So I have been getting free issues of Ladies Home Journal :) FREE!!! :) Febuary's issue mentioned "Score a free marriage workbook" All you have to do is become a fan on Ladies Home Journal on Facebook and then you can download their Valentines Day download thats packed with 50 of their all time favorite marriage tips. :) I already went to facebook and liked them and am interested in there advice for date nights. :) Just go to facebook.com/LHJmagazine    to get yours. The only thing about this marriage workbook is there are no Christ centered principles which is a big thing in my marriage, but there are still some good tid bits to get out of it.  :) One more bonus is you can click to download 55 simple and quick recipes for mom.  Which is something I could use! :) Enjoy

Blog hopping today...looking for mommy's like me! :)

One of my favorite games growing up was "Hungry Hungry Hippo's"  What a great game!  This is a video of my daughter playing with some of our Fuse Students (youth group).  She loves hanging out with these kids!  :)  They are super sweet to her and good role models too!  :) I have one complaint??  With the game to fit it back in the box you have to take the hippos off!  :(  WHY??  That is so silly.  Was it always like that?  I don't remember that when I was a kid.  We got the gift from papa for Christmas so maybe this one was cheaper??  I wonder what would happen if I wrote to the company.  I have not done that but I think my opinion is a good one.  So I threw the box away and just put the marbles in a bag and tape it to it.

Have you signed up for Groupon yet? Groupon is a deal of the day program that is offered in majority of America's cities.  I know for WI they have Madison, Green Bay, Milwaukee, and Appleton.  I dont live in those areas but I have still gotten some really great deals such as 3 redbox rental codes for the cost of one.  :)   You never know what deal they will have but you can see the deals in your email, on your phone, on twitter and facebook.  Once you purchase a groupon you print it and use it like a normal coupon.  (Redbox i just used the codes they gave me)  :)  VERY SIMPLE and lots of savings through it!  :) Click here    if you would like to sign up or see more details!  :)  I do get a bonus if you use my link!  :) Once you sign up you can invite friends and also earn a credit too for your next purchase.

I am so thankful that Selah's fever is broken and she seems like her normal self, minus the cough and funny raspy voice.  She has been playing and even asked if we could play with shaving cream again.  So I thought lets make a snowman with the shaving cream.  :)  It was a lot of fun for both of us.  :)  She loves crafts and I love to set them up for her.  :) So yesterday this was Selah at the clinic getting a nebulizer treatment: She had a fever of 103 at this time... my poor lil munchin and... this is today doing her snowman craft.  WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I think her snowman is adorable... we are still waiting for the weather to warm up a little so we can make a real snowman outside.  :)
