Do Gameday Right with LG

Leave a comment

It’s no secret that we are huge football fans.  Living in Wisconsin, it’s hard not to love football.  I can honestly say, I’ve always enjoyed the game, but I wasn’t always the die hard fan who followed teams and watched every game.  Since I met my husband, I can say things have changed….a lot.

These days football is something that not only brings us together as a family, but is also a way that my husband and I enjoy spending time together.  We are die hard Wisconsin Badger fans and do our best to watch every game.  We get game day ready with our fan gear, snacks and make sure we have great sound and picture.

(We encourage fandom at an early age. Yes, that really is my cousin, Mike Taylor former Wisconsin Badgers Linebacker)

Since we have a large family, it’s not feasible for us to attend games as we would like so we do our best to achieve a great game day setting at home. 

To enjoy game day at home, it is important to have a TV that delivers a quality picture and now that LG has become the official corporate partner of NCAA® Football you can find everything you need for a great experience at Walmart.

LG TVs are great for watching your favorite NCAA team because they offer motion clarity index which means high speed action with minimal motion blur to keep up with your fast moving entertainment.   LG TVs also offer WiFi and great resolution with full HD 1080p to meet the highest standards for high definition.

 I don’t know about you, but I’m a big fan of doing gameday the right way!

Imagine amazing picture qulity with infinite detail, Cinema 3D and easy access to limitless content.  That sounds like a great game day experience if you ask me!

I would love to find a new 55″ LG TV under our tree from Santa Claus this Christmas so we could get it all set up just in time for the NCAA bowls games!

If you have kids who love to create, you are going to want to introduce them to the SKIT app!  Alexander and Ellie are getting better at using my iPad every day and I’m always looking for new apps for them to try out and SKIT has been occupying their screentime a lot over the last few days.

For those who haven’t heard of SKIT, it is this really cool app that lets you create and share animated video messages using your photos and embellishing them with crazy outfits, filters, stickers and so much more.  To top it all off, SKIT just released a bunch of LEGO characters and backgrounds so everyone can have some more fun!

Here is a picture I found on my iPad after Alexander was playing with it this morning.

Creating a SKIT is EASY!
