Get Game Day Ready with P&G

It’s no secret that we are HUGE football fans, this is something I have always made sure everyone knows. We love our Green Bay Packers around these parts and you can bet when they are playing, we are always ready for game day.

Now that our season, has unfortunately, come to an end, we will still watch the remaining games and of course, the BIG GAME!

As we get ready to celebrate the big game, I wanted to let you know what we do around here to be game day ready thanks to some great products from P&G.

Of course, whether you are heading to the game, watching it at a sports bar, or at home, you want to look and feel your best.

Thanks to P&G and their arsenal of fabulous products, getting ready for the big game is a breeze! I like to prep for game day with a nice, hot shower. Nothing feels better then washing away the dirt from the day before, and having freshly cleaned hair and shaved legs!

First things first when I hit the shower is to relax and wash my hair. My go-to-shampoo is Head & Shoulders Classic Clean Shampoo. The thing I love about Head & Shoulders is that it fights dry scalp, calms itchy scalp, and relieves irritation. Since we are in Wisconsin, my scalp is all kinds of angry in the winter and Head & Shoulders helps combat those problems.

Of course, once the hair and everything else is clean, it is time to shave. Now, this is not my favorite thing to do but it has to be done. Thanks to P&G, I have the Gillette Venus Swirl Razor with flexiBall technology that helps to contour better to tricky areas, like knees and ankles, to get the job done! I have found that this razor makes shaving a lot easier!

After the shower, it’s time to get ready for the big game and get my hair and make up done but of course, I can’t forget about my smile that I plan to show off! Now, after years and years of smoking, I am still working to bring my smile back to life but with Crest 3D White Whitestrips Professional Effects, I know that it will happen!

Crest 3D White Whitestrips Professional Effects remove up to 14 years of stains and the results last up to 12 months. What makes them even better is they use the same enamel-safe teeth whitening agent dentists use but at a fraction of the cost!

With these products in my bathroom you can bet I get a great start on game day and all I need is the perfect outfit to show support to my team, some fabulous snacks to enjoy, and friends and family to watch the big game with!

You can find everything you need to keep your #GameDayTraditions going at Walmart!

Be Prepared and #PowerTheHolidays with Duracell

It never fails…Christmas morning rolls around, the kids are opening all of their cool new toys and gadgets and BAM….something needs batteries and you don’t have any on hand.

Ever been there?

I have….more than once.

Thankfully I’ve managed to stay on top of things the last few years and I’ve been reading boxes when purchasing items for the kids and for gifts and including batteries with them. 

When it comes to buying batteries, we perfer to go with Duracell CopperTop All-Purpose batteries because they are dependable and long-lasting.  No joke, Alexander has a toy that he received for Christmas when he was 2 that has been well loved and passed on to Ellie and now to Joey and I have yet to need to change the batteries.

I love batteries that last and are a good investment upfront. 

Since most of the toys and electronics in our house require AA batteries, we like to stock up around the holidays and pick up a few of the 16 packs of the Duracell Coppertop to ensure we have enough batteries to go around.

For the last few years, the 3 older kids, Zack, Libby and Alexander, have received batteries as a stocking stuffer too. With 5 kids, a lot of remotes and countless toys and gadgets, you can bet we go through our fair share of batteries.

You can get Duracell Coppertop batteries in AA, AAA, C, D and 9V. Check your local Walmart for the big packs and make sure you are stocked up for the holidays.

Be sure to connect with Duracell on Facebook and Twitter.

Connecting with The Power of the Heart

Over the last year, I’ve been doing my best to learn to love myself again.  Loving myself and put me before everyone else is not something that is easy for me to do. As a mom of 5, I always put the needs of my children before my own which has caused me to lose myself over the last few years.

I’ve never considered myself a spiritual person and I have to admit, I’ve had a negative way of thinking most of my adult life.  I have been doing my best to do away with the negativity but it has not been an easy task for me.

After spending the last week and a half reading The Power of the Heart by Baptist De Pape, and 18 additional spiritual guides, I have started to get past the negative and find the positive in everything and am doing what I can to create the life that I want. To a lot of people, this might all sound like a load of B.S. but it is amazing how truly inspirational the words of other can be.

Throughout this book you will find the words from people like Maya Angelou, Deepak Chopra, Jane Goodall and more.

There are different exercises you can complete to help you on your journey as well. If you are the journal keeping type, these exercises will work great for you. I’m not really one to journal but I did for a few of the exercises and it has helped me to better understand who I am and what it is I really want.

If anything, this book has taught me that I really need to get to know myself again and not be afraid of who that person is.

Are you a believer of positive thinking?
