This holiday season is the perfect time to get connected and reconnect with family and if you’re going to do it, you should do it right, with a new laptop from Walmart.

Laptop

 

With a new HP Stream 11.6 inch Laptop PC, available in orchid magenta or horizon blue, you can help your loved ones get connected and stay in touch.  

Grandma and grandpa can’t make it to Christmas this year? Older children away at college? Grandkids can’t make it home? Send them this laptop with an Intel Celeron Processor, 2GB Memory, 32GB Hard Drive, and Windows 8.1 and get it all setup ahead of time so you can video chat with them during the holidays.

Get everything ready so you can easily send photos to them and they can save them to the 1TB of Microsoft OneDrive not to mention they will also a get Microsoft Office 365 Personal membership for a year so they can type up letters to the family.

This computer is great because it can store upto 1 million documents and 175,000 phots and it’s thin and light.

Why not make it a Windows Holiday and help get the family connected?

What are you waiting for? Head to your local Walmart and pick one up today!

It’s no secret that we love football in our home. We are big supporters of the NFL, NCAA and high school leagues and of course, we have our teams.  When it comes to college football, you can bet we spend our Saturdays watching the Wisconsin Badgers take on their latest opponent.

When we get ready to watch our team, there are steps that need to be taken hours before the game starts. We take pride in our pregame prep and you should too!

It is important for you to show support for your team on game day and we are firm believers in educating our children on dressing to impress at an early age.

Get out your Badger hat, t-shirt, dress or whatever piece of Badger apparel you have.  

No game day is complete without a smorgasboard of snacks, meats and other treats along with drinks for everyone to enjoy.

Of course, before all of this starts, it is important to ensure that you are clean and smell good on game day and the NCAA and Walmart, along with Axe, Dove Men+ and Degree want to make sure your pregame froming needs are taken to the next level.  Before you settle in to your normal game day ritual make sure you cleanse, protect and stlyle prior to your party.

Right now you can score a $5 Walmart gift card when you stock up on $15 of more of Unilever mens grooming products at Walmart. (This offer available on in-store purchases only and all purchases must be in one transaction).

Get Rewarded with Hot Wheels

*This is a sponsored post brought to you by Lunchbox on behalf of Hot Wheels and Walmart.  All thoughts and opinions are my own. This post may contain affiliate links.*

For as long as I can remember, Hot Wheels have been a part of my life.  I loved them as a kid, Zack loved them as a kid and now Alexander loves them so much that he has introduced Ellie and Joey to them.

Needless to say…there are Hot Wheels all over our house.  We actually own 3 storage cases that are filled with them and probably a hundred more that don’t have a case yet.

With a deep love for Hot Wheels in our home, you can bet they make an appearance under our Christmas tree every year.  

Since we like to stock up during the holidays, we are happy to share the news that now through December 31st, you can earn points towards exclusive rewards when you purchase a qulaifying Hot Wheels product.

Yes, you read that correctly, you can now get rewarded for buying Hot Wheels when you register at hotwheelsrewards.com.

Getting points for your purchase is easy, you can watch a quick tutorial online and get your rewards account setup right away.  Once you have your account and you’ve purchased a qualifying Hot Wheels item, scan your receipt and earn points instantly!

Once you have logged enough points, you can redeem them for some awesome rewards like this cool Monster Jam Monster Mutt 1:64 car collectible.

Alexander has been a big fan of Monster Jam Monster Mutt since he went to Monster Jam for the first time in 2013.

 I’m pretty sure I know what we will be redeeming our reward points for!  Alexander’s already been eyeing up the Hot Wheels Monster Jam 1:64 Grave Digger Vehicle and the Hot Wheels Super Loop Chase Race which will give him more than enough points to get the Monster Jam Monster Mutt collectible.  I guess Santa will have to be sure to stash some extra items under the tree.

If you are shopping for a Hot Wheels fan this holiday season, be sure to register for Hot Wheels Rewards and purchase qualifying products from your local Walmart to ensure you get more out of your purchase!

*Be sure to redeem your points for a reward by December 31st 2014 or they will be gone.*

Febreze Holiday Scents & Easy Apple Tart Recipe

*This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks on behalf of Febreze. I received compensation to write this post, and any opinions expressed are my own, and reflect my actual experience.*

Now that November has arrived, the holidays are just around the corner.  It is taking every fiber of my being to not start decorating for Christmas and put a tree up.  *I must wait until after Thanksgiving. I must wait until after Thanksgiving.*

Just because I can’t jump the gun and throw up Christmas throughout our home doesn’t mean that I can’t enjoy the smells of the holidays before they arrive.

There are soooo many smells that go along with the holidays that I enjoy.  I love anything that is pumpkin spiced or apple cinnamon, the fresh Christmas tree scent and sugar cookie. All of these scents make me crave the holidays.

Thankfully, I don’t have to wait for the holidays to arrive to fill our home with these intoxicating smells.  Febreze has a complete line of holiday scents for the home, available at Walmart, and we have been busy putting them to use.

 

The Febreze Home for the Holidays Collection includes the scents of Apple Tart, Sugared Cranberry, Toasted Almond, Frosted Pine and Vanilla Latte.

I am in love with each of these scents!  Right now the Vanilla Latte is hanging out in my minivan via a vent clip, our half-bath/guest bath smells like sugared cranberry, and the kitchen is toasted almond one day and apple tart the next. When we head to Walmart this weekend  I will be picking up a very large supply of the  frosted pine.

Since I’ve been overwhelming my family with these delicious scents, I thought it was only right to indulge them in a little treat so Libby and I whipped up some easy apple pie tarts for dessert.

You can easily make these Mini Apple Pie Tarts for your friends and family following the recipe below.

Ingredients

-1/2 cup of water

-1/4 cup of sugar

-1/2 tsp cinnamon

-1/2 tsp vanilla

-2 tbsp flour

-a pinch of salt

-4 diced apples

-16 wonton wrappers

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375*F.  Whisk the water, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and flour in a pot over medium heat.  Add the apples and stir until the liquid starts to boil and thicken.

2. Set the heat to low and cook, covered, for 12 to 15 minutes until the apples soften.

3. Press the wonton wrappers into a greased mini-muffin pan.  If you like sweeter tarts, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

4. Scoop the apple mixture into the wontons and bake for about 10 minutes.

5. Enjoy!
