Birthday Party Fun at Lazer Kraze

Birthday parties for kids can be – stressful. The organizing, planning, baking,cooking, and on and on the list goes and then as parents we seem to spend more time being the party planner and coordinator than we do enjoying our own kids birthdays! With 2 of my kids having March birthdays I cannot tell you how many hours I would spend cleaning, organizing, cooking and trying to make my house comfortable enough for everyone to cram into , while kids run around screaming and playing (doesn’t that just stress you out thinking about it?!) This year we decided to let someone else do all the work and enjoy – which is why we booked our party at Lazer Kraze.

Lazer Kraze is a family fun center full of activities to keep kids of all ages active and having fun. with world class laser tag, a gigantic indoor trampoline, and a awesome arcade filled with possibilities, it makes the perfect place to have a birthday party.

Now besides the awesome fun that everyone is going to have – when you get a birthday party, you get a party room along with..wait for it – your own party hostess! Pretty much she (or he) will organize and do everything you need to have a successful birthday. They set up your event times and make sure everyone has everything they need, they get your drinks, order your food, (and serve it) keeps a list of all your birthday child’s gifts and who they are from (so they can write thank you’s later), serves the cake, refills drinks, and anything else you need. You actually get to sit back, relax (or join in on the fun) and not worry. This alone makes it worth every penny to book a party at Lazer Kraze!

Now for my daughter’s birthday we decided to do the trampoline and the laser tag. Adults are welcome, and kids over 4. Let me tell ya’ – wear a t-shirt. That jumping is no joke! It’s a ton of fun, and I loved the idea of all the kids getting so active!

There’s music playing, and kids (and adults) jumping. You can jump off the walls and even do flips (as long as you can land on your feet – you know versus your head)

After our adventure in the trampoline area, we had a quick break and we headed to Laser Tag! Again, another even that all the adults have joined in on (maybe we are just a fun loving family? If you want, the kids can go shoot it out, and you can sit in the party room and sip your beverage).

Now I didn’t get too many photos inside the laser tag room (I was too busy shooting!) but it was a complete blast! The kids had a ton of fun (little and big) and at the end you get a score card to see how you did and which team won. To be honest, we will be back just to compete in laser tag (I need a rematch!)

After our game of laser tag, we headed back to the party room for pizza! Now I have been to places where we’ve ordered food and wished we hadn’t. But I was pleasantly surprised of how good it was! Everyone enjoyed it, and it was very affordable.

We ate, opened gifts and then had cupcakes! Our hostess was extremely helpful and kind – and then it was time for the arcade before the party was over! (the kids had a ton of fun in the arcade – and cashing in their tickets for prizes! )

You can book your own Lazer Kraze party at any of their 3 locations in Mason,OH – Columbus, OH – Erlanger,KY

There are a ton of great options for parties and their staff will be more than happy to recommend which party would be best for your needs!

5 Signs You Might Need to Replace Your Tires

I will admit for a long time I procrastinated when it came to checking my tires. It was something I knew I needed to do, but I never realized how much a part of your vehicles performance and safety relied so heavily on those 4 wheels.  So instead of putting it off like a trip to the Dentist, I now  listen and look like I do when my kids are sick. When it comes to tires you want to take care of things now before they get any worse!

tires

Look for:
Cracks or Bulges: if you see a crack or gouge or anything that looks ‘off’ take it in to have it looked at. If its consistently reading low tire pressure, than you could have a slow air leak and it may need replaced. A lot of tires can actually be repaired and last awhile before a replacement needs done.

Watch the Weather. When temperatures change tire pressure changes too. Tire pressure drops in extreme cold, in the summer excessive heat builds up in the tires. If you are driving on an under inflated tire it will generate even more heat and wear out faster than normal.

Tread. Use the “penny test”. Place a penny in the tread and point Lincoln’s head down. If you can still see the top of his head then your tread is too low and the tire needs replaced. Similarly with modern vehicles you can look for the wear bar – which is rubber woven into patterns – if you can see that, you need to replace your tires!

Shaking or Vibrating. Listen and feel for vibrations or thumps as you are driving. If it feels like its under you the rear tires may be out of balance. If its your steering wheel or front of your vehicle it could be a suspension issue. If you don’t have a smooth ride there’s a problem, and you need to take it in to be looked at.

Tire pressure. Did you know your tires deflate at a rate of about one pound per square inch each month? While you may not wear your tires down in a month, you do need to check them monthly to make sure they are at the right inflation pressure – for your tires longevity, and your safety!

Heal, Don’t Conceal Your Rosacea with Prosacea® Medicated Gel

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Prosacea for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

Things happen when you have kids – it’s like an alien takes over your body and things just start going on you’d never think would happen to you. Like hair in weird places, and weird red bumps and irritations on my skin. First it was on my arms, then my legs, and eventually on my face! I didn’t know what was going on ,until my Doctor diagnosed me with rosacea.

Before I knew how to treat my symptoms, I tried to hide them. But do you know how make-up does on your arms and legs (even the ‘waterproof’ kind)? Not so well. . even on my face, I could still see the redness of the rosacea and I was super self conscience to go swimming, or even go work out since I knew that the sweat would rub it off eventually.

That’s why my Doctor (and dermatologist) suggest  Prosacea Medicated Rosacea Gel does not cover up rosacea symptoms but actually controls the redness, bumps and irritation. It can be used alone ,or under your moisturizer, or even under makeup to help treat and heal –  you want it to heal, not just conceal!

prosacea1

Prosacea is a light water-based formula that goes on easily and absorbs quickly – and isn’t even noticeable under my makeup. The aloe helps soothe the dry, reddened skin. Within a few days I noticed a difference not only on my face, but my legs and arms as well. You wouldn’t even know by looking at me that I’ve ever suffered from rosacea. Even my arms and legs are looking a lot better, and I know with continuous usage I’m confident it will be gone in no time!
