Thanks to Pop Secret for sponsoring this post.
It is snowing here today (expecting up to 4 inches) and we’re spending the day inside building a spaceship. Some kids build forts, but we build spaceships and rocket ships. To go along with our spaceship building, we made a yummy snack using Pop Secret. Because you know… snacks make everything better.
While Charlie was working on building his spaceship, I got the Pop Secret Caramel Popcorn going.

The holiday season is definitely one of my favorite times of the year. I love all the food, fun, and especially all the extra family time. For us, since the boys are still so young, it's pretty easy to grant their wishes and make sure there is plenty under the tree for them. I know as they get older this isn't going to be as easy. For many families though, the holidays bring stress and sadness as they aren't able to fulfill their family's wishes and celebrate with all the goodies that we do. This year, UPS has an awesome program that is making it super easy to help out someone in need.
UPS is encouraging everyone to spread holiday cheer by sharing your holiday wishes and stories on Twitter and Instagram. For every wish and story submitted, UPS will donate $1 to one of their charity partners (Salvation Army, Boys & Girls Club or Toys for Tots) up to a total donation of $100,000! How great is that?!? This is such an easy and fun way for everyone to help out this holiday! Take a look at the video below:

I just found one of the coolest and easiest ways to earn money or money towards apparel for a group! This morning while I was watching Doc McStuffins, I created a page for our Elkton Relay for Life to earn sponsorship of shirts!
Our Elkton Relay for Life event doesn’t take place until May, but we have the entire year to fundraise. Relay For Life is an overnight event for The American Cancer Society. The event celebrates those who have fought cancer and won, remember those who have lost the fight, and supports those still fighting the disease. Elkton Relay for Life's goal for our 2015 event is $150,000! We’ve just really started to kick off for 2015 and what a better way to kick off than to get some awesome shirts to spread the news!

Most people follow a sport in one form or another. In our house, we’re football people. And I mean, WE. I know some wives pretend to follow football and “cheer” for their husband’s team, but have no real idea what is going on. This is not the case in our house. I was a Ravens fan long before my husband and I started dating. He’s just lucky he is too.
Charlie loves to watch football with Mommy and Daddy now. He says “Go Ravens”! And he can echo us in the same exact tone when we say “Come on….” (be that a good thing or not).
When we’re watching football we sometimes forget to eat real meals, so our snacking has to be heavy! And what’s better for a football snack than some warm cheesy meaty dip?
Thanks to Poise for sponsoring today’s post.
So here we go. This is definitely a post that’s a bit different from recipes and crafts, but one that the moms will totally get. You know that feeling when you sneeze, laugh, or maybe even jump? The one that feels like a little tinkle maybe? That’s called light bladder leakage (LBL). I know… not really a pleasant thing to talk about, but what’s really unpleasant is having to wear a giant pad just because a little LBL might happen.
Don’t let the fear of LBL change your daily routine! If you want to laugh, jump around with your kiddos or exercise without worrying about a little tinkle, do it! Right now, you can grab a free sample of the new Poise Microliners!

At our house, we need a protein in every meal. Hillshire Farm Lit’l Smokies have made it a breeze to add protein to our dishes. Sure, you can always eat mac and cheese plain, but doesn’t this look soooo much better?
Before shopping at Safeway, I always check my Just For U coupons and add anything I might pick up. The coupons are added right to my card! Right now, you can find some great coupons on Hillshire Brands, including this one for Lit’l Smokies.
I participated in an Influencer Activation Program on behalf of Influence-Central for Jif To Go Dippers. I received a sample to facilitate my review and a thank you item for participating.
As a family with two little boys, I feel like we’re constantly on-the-go. If we’re not going to playdates, we’re dropping of or picking up from preschool. Add in our zoo trips and family gatherings, it feels like we’re always going somewhere.
From August 20 through October 1, 2014, Jif To Go is celebrating life on-the-go by asking fans to share a picture of how they get going in the #GetGoing photo promotion. Fans can enter each week for a chance to win $1,000 to use for their next adventure.

A little over a month ago, I shared with you how you could Join Seventh Generation and #FightToxins! Seventh Generation was trying to collect 100,00 signatures on a petition asking Congress to make the reforms on the Toxic Substance Control Act. The TSCA has not been updated since 1976!
Well, we did it! On April 30th, Seventh Generation, along with the Toxin Freedom Fighters and its partners, held a press conference on Capitol Hill to move chemical reform to the forefront of national discourse. Senator Kristen Gillibrand of New York was presented with the petition by Seventh Generation Toxin Freedom Fighter, Zephyr Chaffer.

As a mom with a child who has a Congenital Heart Defect, I can’t help but be concerned with the amount of toxic chemicals in our environment. These toxic chemicals are found in our everyday products. Think about what you use to clean your child’s toys, sheets, dishes, or your kitchen counters. Do you know what is in them? Did you know that of the 85,000 synthetic chemicals introduces into the market since the Toxic Substances Control Act was passed in 1976, the EPA has required testing on less than 10%?
