Fruit Shoots and FUN!!

Posted on August 6, 2014 by Krissyar

Thank you to Fruit Shoot for sponsoring today’s post, but my love for their juice and endorsing children’s imaginations is all my own!

We want to share some of our favorite things about Fruit Shoot. It has a new no-spill cap, perfect for children of all ages, and contains no fructose corn syrup, making it a much better option than other flavored drinks.

This fun hydration drink is perfect for energetic, independent kids who desire fun on the go. It contains real fruit juice, natural flavors, no high-fructose corn syrup, and no added sugar.

Fruit Shoot lets moms balance the hydration their kids need with the taste that they love, making hydration fun for kids and easy for moms.

Fruit Shoot also features an innovative no-spill cap (no more juice stains in the car!) making it easy for kids to be independent while on the go. These vibrant fun colored bottles come in tasty flavors of Orange, Apple, Berry Burst and Strawberry/Raspberry.

Have a Ball Stunt Hunt with Fruit Shoot!

Fruit Shoot is looking to families across the U.S. to share videos of your kids doing amazingly active stunts. Here’s the trick: Your submission has to feature a Fruit Shoot bottle and a ball of your choice.

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, NO GOOD, VERY BAD DAY – THE MOVIE!

Posted on August 6, 2014 by Krissyar

I am so excited for this movie! I read this book when I was a kid, and it’s one of my favorites!

Disney’s “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” follows the exploits of 11-year-old Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) as he experiences the most terrible and horrible day of his young life—a day that begins with gum stuck in his hair, followed by one calamity after another. But when Alexander tells his upbeat family about the misadventures of his disastrous day, he finds little sympathy and begins to wonder if bad things only happen to him. He soon learns that he’s not alone when his mom (Jennifer Garner), dad (Steve Carell), brother (Dylan Minnette) and sister (Kerris Dorsey) all find themselves living through their own terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Anyone who says there is no such thing as a bad day just hasn’t had one. “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day,” directed by Independent Spirit Award-winner Miguel Arteta (“The Good Girl,” “Cedar Rapids,” “Youth in Revolt”) from a screenplay by Rob Lieber, is a 21 Laps Entertainment/Jim Henson Company production. The film hits theaters nationwide Oct. 10, 2014.

Relax and Decompress with Kalm with Kava

Posted on August 5, 2014 by Krissyar

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Kalm with Kava. Though I’ve been compensated for my time, all opinions, as usual, are my own.

I don’t know if you are like me, but when it comes to bed time it takes me forever to turn my brain off and fall asleep. There are a thousand  million things going through my mind in a night and I  toss and turn until my body is so exhausted that it finally just shuts down. This usually leads to some really really late nights and some really rough mornings. I’ve tried the sleeping pills, the pain relievers with the “P.Ms” in it, the warm milk, the hot bath… I still lay awake.

But I found a great alternative that has helped me relax, with the drowsy side effects. Kalm with Kava 

kalm with kava

Kava or kava-kava is a crop of the South Pacific.

 The roots of the plant are used to produce a drink with relaxing and anesthetic properties. It is consumed throughout the Pacific cultures of Hawaii, Vanuatu, Fiji and New Zealand. The main effects produce a Relaxing and Euphoric state and it is primarily consumed to relax without disrupting mental clarity. It is becoming increasingly popular as a substitute for alcohol as there is no hangover or ill effects felt the next day. 

What is Kava-Kava?

It’s a Relaxation Drink

Kalm is a revolutionary new idea in relaxation. A relaxation drink 3 years in the making. Specially designed with help from multiple nutritionists to help you kickback with friends and family, after a long day at work, before a flight, on the golf course or anytime you want to RELAX.

Kalm is made with a proprietary blend of natural herbs including Kava, mothernatures natural relaxant. It is blended with all natural fruit juices including guava and passion fruit resulting in a great tasting oasis to your day or night. Use anytime you are feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or just want to kickback and enjoy life.

 

There’s many reasons I love Kalm with Kava, but here’s the top 3:

Low Calorie

Only 11 Calories per serving!

100% Vitamin C

100% of your daily value per serving

Natural Flavors

Only all natural flavors and juices

What would be the reason you would use Kalm with Kava? Comment below and be entered to win a 2-pack of Kalm with Kava drinks!

The kids and I had spent a long exhausting day shopping for school supplies and decided to stop by our local Cold Stone Creamery and check out the new Shark inspired creations. We decided to pick up some Great Blue Cupcakes for our back to school celebration day and enjoy watching some re-runs of Shark Week while we relaxed after a long day of shopping!

cold stone kids

The cupcakes are absolutely delicious and I can tell you my favorite part is the chocolate cupcake ‘shell’. I love that  Cold Stone ice cream is
freshly made on a daily basis in every location using only high quality ingredients, and they use an awesome frozen granite station.
