This mothers day…give the gift she WANTS

16 Apr By 6 Comments

Being a mom has become the most special thing in my life. I honestly always knew I wanted a child (read, child, not children as I will shortly be blessed with) but I never realized how incredibly fulfilling it would ultimately be.

I realize we have had moments like ….oh…..this:

And This…..

And, oh yes, This……

But without those moments I would be less of a “mom” blogger and more of a ….out of the house worker with a life.

Snort.

Now according to Hallmark, or the monthly calendars atleast, we have this little holiday called “Mothers Day”. Its the day we are supposed to sleep in (by sleep in I mean like… 7:01), eat bon bons, take long bubble baths..and…oh heck with it, take us to a hotel, drop us off, and pick us up on monday!

Well, Rayovac has come up with a fantabulous mothers day GIFT for all of you husbands, spouses, and significant others that struggle with showing the mother in your life that picking the boogies for their child is special.

WIN A YEAR OF FREE MAID SERVICE

Yes, you heard/read me right. Free. Maid. Service. So mom can focus on the important things like cooking and caring and sex…wait a minute.

This isn’t sounding like its a good idea.

I jest. I jest. Honestly, I would take a free year of maid service over just about any other prize. Can you imagine going to bed in a clean house? Getting up in a clean house? Leaving for the store and still having your house….clean?

Its like the impossible dream.

SO here is what you do…leave this post up, leave the contest up, if your spouse is dense, put little sticky notes on your computer with miniature arrows…heck even enter for yourself, but ENTER.

Let me say again.

Free.

Maid.

Service.

For.

A.

Year.

iOMG.

That is all.

Things Remembered Charm Story Giveaway 5/7 CLOSED

2 May By

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, have you finished your shopping or left enough “hints” for your spouse and kids?  My oldest child is only 4, so I don’t have a lot of Mother’s Day under my belt, but I can tell you that the gifts that do stand out are the ones that are filled with meaning and sentiment.

Still stumped?  Take a look at the fabulous finds over at Things Remembered!  They have unique gifts for Mom that can be personalized such as picture frames, birthstone necklaces, and water globes.  But, my favorite item is definitely the new Charm Story line debuting at Things Remembered.

This program is a creative way to honor Mom and her accomplishments.  Either a beautiful necklace or bracelet is chosen and charms can be added to reflect memorable occasions which will display her unique story.  Each charm has ample space to engrave a name, date or message in order to further personalize the gift.  Charms are available for a wide variety of occasions including graduation, new baby, and birthday.  How much fun is it to wear jewelry with a story!?! I think this one is my favorite!
