Out n about chihuahua style!!!

It has been nice here the past couple of days in Virginia (with the exception of today because it is raining and stormed this morning), so we took it upon ourselves to go out and enjoy the fresh air.
A sheriff's deputy was checking out our other dog Bailey while we were taking this picture, so as you can tell Bullet was thinking "What are you looking at her for, I'm the chihuahua".

We walked around, and Bullet got his usual "aww's and ahh's" and a woman even asked if she could hold him. Given that some of the areas were a little muddy, I told the woman that he might get mud on her white shirt, she said she didn't care and took him in her arms!!! He loved it :)

We came home and watched TV and he was settled in for the night. He is slowly getting used to the new sounds in  a new house, and all the new people around him that he sees on the streets. It's time for us to catch up on some Nancy Grace, so with full bellies, we are laying on the couch :)

Sweet Dreams & Chihuahua Kisses,
Bullet & Colleen

Traveling Husband

The Author of this post is Velma Baird

I thought getting married was going to mean always having a partner with you. It hasn't turned out that way for me. I mean emotionally I totally have a partner. I married my best friend and couldn't imagine being with anyone else. I just didn't picture that my husband would take a job that had him traveling more nights out of the week than he is home. So I am married and end up spending all of my weeknights home alone. Cooking for one is not what I pictured when I said "I Do". If I was single, at least I would be going out and going on dates. Being a single married person can be so lonely. In the first year we were married I kept having this reoccurring dream that someone broke into the house while I was sleeping and while my husband was out of town. These dreams really started to interrupt my sleep. I decided to get hom security systems Payson and it has really helped me feel safer. I haven't had that terrible nightmare since I got the system!

Cutey Review

Cutey has a wide array of charm bracelets that are just that, "cute". They picked the perfect name for their company.

I received two bracelets, one that I wore, and the other I still have because I am going to be offering it as a giveaway! I will ship it anywhere, so everyone can enter. Stay tuned for the giveaway on another post.
Now, back to the review. It was extremely easy to put on myself, I didn't need help unclasping it. It was very comfortable to wear, it did not pinch my skin or irritate me at all. I received several compliments while wearing it, and I think it is totally "cute".
These make great gifts, and they have a wide selection so you are sure to find something to fit your style or the style of the person you are purchasing the gift for. Great for everyone! I recommend this company and their charm bracelets to everyone!

I did not receive any financial compensation for this review. I did, however, receive free product for the purpose of this review. All opinions are my own.

Organic Cleansing Milk Review & *Giveaway*

Reviva Labs offers many wonderful products, and I have used their items before. You might remember when I did a review for them in the past on one of their other wonderful products, today I am going to tell you about their organic cleansing milk.
I have sensitive skin, and tend to break out if I use certain products with fragrance or anything that isn't all natural. When I used the cleansing milk, it was like putting pure silk on my face. It worked so well, and I didn't have any issues with breaking out or redness etc. I truly love this product.
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this company! Here are some of their wonderful products that they offer (just a small example of their wonderful line):

OCHO Candy Bars Review & *Giveaway*

OCHO Candy Bars are the perfect combination of candy and organic goodness. Yes, that's right, they are organic! As you might know, I love anything organic, and when I came across OCHO I just had to give it a try.
There were several flavors in the box, but my favorite is the peanut butter. It was really good. You wouldn't know you were eating anything other than "candy bars". Nothing bland about these! They are great for kids too because you will feel better giving them for snacks since they are organic, and the kids won't know its better for them.
They are packed with flavor, and made with pride. I recommend these to anyone! Be sure to stop by and visit their website and look at all the yummy treats they have available for you!
One lucky reader is going to win a variety box of OCHO candy bars!

Famous Daves Review & *Giveaway*

I do not like tanning in tanning booths, or being out in the sun too long because it can be damaging for your skin. I do, however, like to BE tan. I use self tanning lotions so that I can appear tan, but not damage my skin. Recently, I had the opportunity to try Famous Daves Tanner.

I really liked the way this worked. I could see a difference rather quickly and it was not greasy at all. I did not have any "orange spots" or streaks on my skin, and after applying it I washed my hands and dried them. I did not have any orange on my hands either.
I can honestly say that this product works better than most! It's very reliable and will give you the tan that you want, without making you look orange or making it obvious that you have a "fake tan". There is nothing that looks fake about this tan! I am happy to recommend this product to anyone. The best time to apply it is after a shower, this way you will have gotten off any dead skin cells etc prior to applying.
One lucky reader is going to win a bottle of their own!!!

Methods of decoration for Easter baskets

One of the most looked forward to holidays that we have on the calendar outside of the Christmas holidays would have to be the Easter holiday. All of the holidays are considered occasions to look forward to, not only because they are a day off of work and school, but also because it is a chance to be together with your family. Many families do not have the chance to spend that much time together because of the strains of life, things like school and work often take away from the time that we should be spending with our families.
  There are many parts of the season that are enjoyable, however, one of the most fun parts of the season is the Easter gift baskets that are given to the children that are in your life. They are usually brightly colored things that are filled with sweet things like candy and other treats. There are also many other Easter gift basket ideas and things that you can fill the baskets themselves with. You can not only choose to fill them with candy but you can also fill them with things such as small toys or books. Anything that will interest the child that they are meant for are acceptable to include into the basket.

You can also find different Easter gift basket ideas by looking them up on various places such as the internet or different magazine articles that will direct you on how to decorate Easter baskets as well as any number of other things. These kinds of step by step guides can be immensely helpful when it comes to putting any kind of gift together regardless of the type of gift it is.

There are also different methods of decorating the Easter baskets as well. One of the most popular ways of accomplishing this is by taking your inspiration from the personality as well as the likes and the dislikes of the child that the gift basket is meant for. In fact the idea is the same whether the gift basket is for a child or for an adult.
 Another way that you can go about getting these baskets put together is by purchasing the basket already assembled. There are many retailers that have these kinds of things already assembled which makes for a much easier time when you are trying to locate these items. It also helps to ensure that you do not have to go through the trouble of going to different stores in search of the different items that you will need in order to form the baskets.

No matter what the occasion the giving of gifts is something that is an essential part of most any of the holidays that are celebrated. It is also not as important what you choose to include in these kinds of gift baskets but it is more important the thought that you put behind it. It is more important to put thought behind the items that you choose to give in order to ensure that they enjoy them.

Activewear USA Review

Recently I had the opportunity to review apparel from Activewear USA. I was sent the ALO tank for review in pink and gray.
It was a very breathable pattern. I wore it walking, and had a hoody sweatshirt over top of it since it was a bit chilly.
As you can see it was a snug tight fit, but nothing that would be uncomfortable. I received a size medium and can honestly say that they are true to size. I like the vibrant color, I thought it was very pretty. While wearing it, I barely felt like I had anything on. It was not uncomfortable to walk in, and would make a great workout/walk routine shirt.
You can find Activewear USA on facebook here and check everything out at the following link: http://www.activewearusa.com/store/pc/Alo-Activewear-Tops-c82.htm
They offer so much more than just tops so be sure to check them out!

Winter months...

The winter months can reak havoc on your lips and cause them to be dry and cracked. I know I'm constantly licking my lips which makes it worse. They just get so dry. One item that I found that works great is the over/under lip conditioner from EdenFantasys.

It's extremely softs, and works wonders. It lasts a pretty long time too, so there's no need to constantly re-apply every few minutes. It's affordable and it works great, perfect combination! They also offer several other types of lip balms that can be found here. Remember to stay hydrated in these cold months, even though it's not summertime in most areas, it's important to keep your lips and skin hyrdrated and to make sure you stay warm of course :)
There are several lotions for your skin as well to keep your skin smooth, soft and hydrated.

I did not receive any financial compensation for this review. I did, however, receive free product from EdenFantasys, an online sex store, for the purpose of this review. All opinions are my own.

I couldn't believe how fresh it was, it tasted as if it had just been made in the kitchen! It was packed with flavor and I couldn't believe how yummy it was. I made sandwiches for lunch for me and hubby and had the potato salad with it. Perfect combination! Then, we had some with hotdogs and hamburgers (for me veggie burgers) and it was yet another perfect combination.
You can view Grandma's Brand here. Also if you like Grandma's on facebook, you'll get a free coupon.
I can't rave about this enough, you should try it for your parties and BBQ's.
