Can you EVER have enough hoses? No, the answer is no!
This hose by Ohuhu has a completely different feel than the other expandable hoses that I have used in the past. It seems to expand quicker that the other expandable hoses that I have used. I love that it is lightweight and easy to handle. I can't stand lugging around the other hoses and winding them back up. I have no patience for it! This one shrinks down and I can quickly and easily put it away. They are calling it "2016 newest snake shape design". The shape is suppose to decrease friction and wear between the outer and inner hose to prolong the life of the hose.
Empty the hose is only 33 feet. Fully expanded it grows to 100 feet. The fittings are solid brass and include seals. I have not had any signs of leakage anywhere. They also include a sprayer. Its a pretty nice sprayer too. My main use is the jet feature to spray off our patio. I use it everyday and the pressure is pretty great. Check it out on Amazon. I received this hose for free in exchange for my HONEST review.
We recently got a ping pong table, I have to tell you, on CraigsList. Wait for it.....for $25! Its a full size competitive ping pong table! It was quite a day! Sad for the guy selling it. He had it set up in his dinning room. Apparently a divorce situation. His realtor told him he HAD to sell it! Oh, well...
We needed paddles! Check out what I found on Amazon!! These are lightweight for intermediate or advanced beginner. They are built for speed. We are neither advanced beginners or intermediate. We are, well whats before beginner? The paddles are nice. They seem to be really well made and solid. They fit well in your hand. They look nice. Watch out world, we will be starting our ping pong world tour in the next year or two. Check it out on Amazon. I received this product for free in exchange for my HONEST review.
I love having baskets, I have baskets and bins all over the house. Some are for storing and I admit it, some are for hiding! Hey, there are things that just never seem to find a "home" so they end up "living" in a random basket. I guess they are like junk drawers in a way! I really like these storage baskets by Ohuhu. One is 10x9, which is kind of on the small side. I have it on the stairs and use it for random toys that wind up downstairs and need to go back upstairs. The larger of the two is 16.5 x 13 and nearly 10 tall! Its a great basket! That sucker holds a LOT! I haven't decided where to use it yet, I don't want to waste all of that glorious space!!
I really like the way they look. They are very natural looking. The handles are sewn on and seem to be very sturdy. I don't like that there is no reinforcement on the sides to hold them up. So, if they are empty, they droop over. Its sad looking. I feel like they should have wire or something to support the sides. Check them out onAmazon. I received these baskets for free in exchange for my HONEST review.
I have been wanting a mala bead necklace for a while now. This one by Zen Products is absolutely beautiful! It is a dark wood and made of Indian Agalwood. The beads are on an elastic band. It is great for a necklace or a bracelet. There are 108 beads and each bead is 8 mm. I love the way these beads feel in my hand. They are great to use while meditating. Check it out on Amazon. I received this product for free in exchange for my HONEST review.
I got this watch for my husband. It is really nice looking. The leather band is black with an adjustable buckle clasp. It is lightweight and comfortable. The display is large and easy to read with a black face and large silver roman numerals. Its a nice watch and since the band is dark and matches nearly everything. It came in a nice gift box. The watch was wrapped around a little satin covered pillow. The packaging made it great for a gift, just wrap it and go! The watch is waterproof up to 99 feet. My husband has been wearing it daily for a couple of weeks. It keeps great time and shows no wear at this point. Check it out on Amazon. I received this watch for free in exchange for my HONEST review.

If you haven't heard of TestingMom.com I am excited to tell you all about it!!
My boys and I have been learning all of the games that are part of the IQ Fun Pack. There are TONS of different games. When I opened the board game, I have to admit, I was overwhelmed!
I looked through everything and then headed to the website for guidance. Luckily, Karen Quinn, the co-founder, has a short tutorial for every game. Its fabulous! She explains exactly how to introduce and play each game. Before we could start playing, I was tasked with cutting out all of the playing pieces. There are TONS! Karen explains that the purpose of the parents cutting the pieces is to help us familiarize ourselves with each piece prior to introducing our kiddos. Okay, I have to admit, that's smart!
Over the summer break, I will be working with Liam, he will be entering Kindergarten in August. I will be posting videos and updates about each of the games to let you know what has been great and what hasn't.
I can tell you, Liam LOVES the space babies!
The premise of the game is that we are teaching the space babies all about earth and what earth children know. It is super cute and a great way to encourage the kids to learn while thinking they are teaching! For us this works great. Liam gets aggravated when I am teaching him anything new. This is a genuinely fun way to introduce new concepts. Karen Quinn is a best selling author. Her son was struggling with hearing problems which lead doctors to determine that he would never function in a regular classroom. With her determination her son was admired to a competitive private school and placed in honors classes. In 2010, Karen met Michael McCurdy, one of the most popular "daddy bloggers" in New York City. He had become frustrated with the lack of information available to parents regarding school selection and testing. Together they worked to developed an internet site that would provide parents with the tools and knowledge we need to help our children become confident and successful students.
This set of 33 ft LED lights was just what I was looking for to complete my boys' city scape mural.
It looks amazing!
We outlined each of the buildings in the horizon. We just used pushpins to each corner and turned the strand up or down depending on what we needed. They are incredibly easy to work with.
They love it!
The remote controls the intensity of the lights. We keep them on the dimmest setting and leave them on all the time. They do go really bright and also have a strobe setting. My only complaint is that there is about a 3 foot section that doesn't work. I emailed the company about two weeks ago and have not gotten a response. Check it out on Amazon.
