Meet Monster High Freaky Fusion ROLLBACK PRICES

While I haven’t experienced Monster High and all of it’s ‘ghoulishness’ first hand, I do have a niece and several friends who have kids who are crazy about these characters and dolls.

Since the holidays will be here before we know it (less than 100 shopping days until Christmas) and I am preparing to shop for gifts for those who are near and dear as well as those who are less fortunate, so I thought now was a good time to familiarize myself with these new toys.

The Monster High® Freaky Fusion™ ghouls go deep into the catacombs of Monster High to help Frankie look for clues about her past and learn more about her family scaritage. There, they inadvertently set off a time machine that takes them back to the year 1814 where they meet Sparky, a misguided, teen scientist obsessed with the creation of life. Sparky follows Frankie back to modern day Monster High, causing a lab accident in which eight ghouls fuse into four new monsters!

The Freaky Fusion line consists of 4 Freaky fused dolls”

Lagoonafire created by fusing the Sea Monster heritage of Lagoona Blue with the Chinese Dragon ancestry of Jinafire; she loves to surf and swim like she’s on fire!

Clawvenus is a combination of Clawdeen Wolf and Venus Mc Flytrap. She is fiercly ‘fusionable’ and ferociously beautiful however, she may need to use a weed-and-feed formula on her hair.

Dracubecca takes the Vampire heritage of Draculaura and the Mad Scientist ancestry of Robecca Steam to give you a scary but sweet Dracubecca.

Cleolei is created by fusing the Mummy heritage of Cleo de Nile with the werecat of ancestry of Toralei. She packs some ferocious issues but it’s nothing a little cat nip can’t fix.

After learning more about the Freaky Fusion Ghouls, I decided to find out which ghoulfriend I am more like, thanks the Dual Ghoul Personality Test at Walmart.com, you number one stop for all of your Monster High needs!

I’m more like Clawvenus…..maybe I should try tome weed-and-feed on my lucious locks and see if it will help tame things!

Take the Dual Ghoul Personality Test and leave a comment below telling me which Ghoul you are most like!

Get ready for big savings and head to your local Walmart and take advantage of the rollback prices on Monster High Freaky Fusion products!

Bring the Fun of Guardians of the Galaxy Home with You!

The week before school started, my dear husband sold his soul to take Libby to see Guardians of the Galaxy. How exactly did he do this, you ask? He told me he would do the dishes (which he absolutely hates) for 1 week if I let them go to the movies one afternoon. Normally, I wouldn’t have made such a big deal about him taking part of the day to see a movie but we were prepping for back-to-school and I had so much to do. Of course, his offer…..I accepted it right away! (Don’t tell him…I would have let him go anyway!).

So, off to the movies they went.

Later that evening, Zack went to see it too.

Now here I sit, I still haven’t seen the movie but I have seen every Guardians of the Galaxy clip there is online and I can see why this move is such a success! Seriously, have you seen the Dancing Groot video yet? (Google it!)

Even though he hasn’t seen the movie yet, Alexander has been checking out the Guardians of the Galaxy toys every time we are at Walmart, and with 5 kids, you can bet we are there….a lot. He’s wanted a Star-Lord figure since a friend of his showed him one and he really, really wants the Star-Lord Battle Gear Set. Thankfully, Walmart has a large supply of GOTG toys, so he is working his way towards getting one. If he can make it through the first month of school and remain ‘on green’, he gets to pick out a new toy!

A few weeks ago, my friend Lisa and her family went on a road trip to Myrtle Beach and Lisa took her trusty friend Star-Lord with her. Alexander loved seeing her updates like Star-Lord driving, checking out traffic, and enjoying some time at the beach.

Alexander may be crazy about Star-Lord but me, I would like to get my hands on a dancing Groot to keep me company while I work!

I’m looking forward to seeing how Alexander does at school over the next month and very hopeful we will be doing some Guardians of the Galaxy shopping at Walmart.com, the place for all of your GOTG toy needs!

Have you seen Guardians of the Galaxy yet? Who is your favorite character from the movie?

Unleashing Her Inner Rock Star & Amping Up Her Style with TRESemmé

With the kids heading back-to-school next week and Libby entering her first year of high school, we made our way to the hair salon last week for her to get a new do just in time for school.

Libby is my creative child who isn’t afraid to be herself or express herself. She’s the kid who doesn’t care what others think and does whatever makes her happy. (I wish I could be as brave as her).

Here she is, amping up her hairstyle for the new year…….looking a little bit like a rock star if you ask me.

Libby really wanted a new look that was going to allow her to express herself and I think she got just what she wanted.

She would have totally rocked the red carpet at the 2014 VMAs. This year, Walmart and TRESemmé teamed up to create some great new looks and Libby is looking forward to trying a few of them out.

You can check out these great new looks from TRESemmé by visitng Walmart.com and find out how to recreate them.

Which TRESemmé VMA look is your favorite?
