A Dog’s Purpose GiveawayClosed
November 16, 2010
Product Description: “A Dog’s Purpose” is the remarkable story of one endearing dog’s search for his purpose over the course of several lives. Surprised to find himself reborn as a rambunctious golden-haired puppy after a tragically short life as a stray mutt, Bailey’s search for his new life’s meaning leads him into the loving arms of 8-year-old Ethan. During their countless adventures Bailey joyously discovers how to be a good dog.
Heartwarming, insightful, and often laugh-out-loud funny, “A Dog’s Purpose” is not only the emotional and hilarious story of a dog’s many lives, but also a dog’s-eye commentary on human relationships and the unbreakable bonds between man and man’s best friend. This moving and beautifully crafted story teaches us that love never dies, that our true friends are always with us, and that every creature on earth is born with a purpose.
I have one copy of this book to giveaway. (gift for a dog lover)

November 13, 2010
Description: Capture the look and feel of real. high performance cars and trucks, Road Rippers feature multiple play functions and authentic design details to help keep playtime rolling all day long. Strong enough to handle rough and tumble play, Road Rippers R/C collection is great for young racers everywhere.
*****My son loves cars I have said this a million times, but he even more enjoys them when he doesn’t have to move them himself. My son was beyond excited to try this out. I wish my camera was working right. This car is just like the real deal. It’s lights work and even sounds like a sports car. The remote control looks like a walkie-talkie and id very simple to use. The only downside is it doesn’t do very well in the grass. My kids really loved this.
Retail: $35.99 but I found for $29.99 at Target, and Toys R Us

Winnie The Pooh Hits Theatres July 2011
November 11, 2010Winnie the Pooh is going back to it’s Classical animation.
the first big-screen Pooh adventure from Disney animation in more than 35 years. With the charm, wit and whimsy of the original featurettes, this all-new movie reunites audiences with the philosophical “bear of very little brain” and friends Tigger, Rabbit, Piglet, Kanga, Roo—and last, but certainly not least, Eeyore, who has lost his tail. “Well a tail is either there or it isn’t there,” said Pooh. “And yours isn’t… there.” Owl sends the whole gang on a wild quest to save Christopher Robin from an imaginary culprit. It turns out to be a very busy day for a bear who simply set out to find some hunny. Inspired by five stories from A.A. Milne’s books in Disney’s classic, hand-drawn art style, “Winnie the Pooh” hits theaters July 15, 2011.

It’s Christmas David-Christmas is coming, and Santa Claus is making his list. David is trying to be good, but when the house is filled with candy canes, Christmas cookies and beautifully wrapped gifts, it’s very hard to stay out of trouble! From wayward snowballs to the sleepless excitement of Christmas Eve, best-selling author David Shannon perfectly captures the joy and laughter of the holiday season.
Captain Blue Sky-Santa brings Jack his best toy pal, Captain Sky Blue, a pilot. Sky speaks in Pilot Talk (“Roger! Wilco!”). After a thunderstorm separates Sky and his buddy (“Mayday!”), Sky is abducted by a whale, then left alone to wander a frigid ocean floor until he chances upon a very special place, a place where he’s been before (“Now I’m spooled up!”). Captain Sky Blue thinks he has finally found an easy way home, but first he must help Santa out on Christmas Eve –a challenge that puts his pilot skills to the test! From Caldecott Medal Winner author Richard Egielski.

Amy’s Natural and Organic foods
November 11, 2010Amy’s Kitchen is a family business… with every member of the family taking part. The company was started in 1987, when Amy was born. Her mom and dad, Rachel and Andy Berliner, carefully nurtured the company as well as the child, paying constant attention to every aspect of its day to day activities and providing the vision that has made Amy’s so successful.
***My husband is lactose and tolerant so making some of my favorite foods at dinner is out of the question, or I have to make an alternative for him. We tried Amy’s no cheese pizza, and added a little soy cheese on it. My husband said it was delicious and great to not have to make a pizza by hand. The pizza has onions, bell peppers and shitake mushrooms. It’s the perfect easy made lunch, dinner or snack for anyone that has dairy problems.
Retail: $7.99
Disclosure: no compensation was received, a coupon was provided by the company.
