Cottonelle Toilet Paper & Flushable Wipes

I'd never really considered adding flushable wet wipes to my normal bathroom routine, until I got to sample them.  They are a bathroom luxury item for sure!  You use water to clean so many things, so why wouldn't you use it when cleaning up down there?  It just makes sense and it makes you feel so much more fresh, clean & confident!  I received samples for my household of 4 & samples to share with my sister-in-laws household of 8 and my best friends (Laura- pictured above) household of 2.  I would recommend these convenient wipes to anyone who goes #2.  :)  Also, the toilet paper is fantastic!  I usually just go with what's cheapest, but Cottonelle is truly soft & durable.  I can even blow my nose with out it breaking through!

What's your bathroom routine?  Do you use flushable wipes?  Have you tried Cottonelle?

Old Navy Perfect Tee Review (Crowdtap Sample & Share)

On Monday I invited my friend, Laura to meet me at Old Navy after work.  We have been friends for over 10 years!  She felt so honored that I picked her to join me. We met at Old Navy and immediately found the table of Vintage SS Tees in the middle of the store. It took us a little longer to locate the Perfect Tees, they were on the wall near the Vintage ones, but signage wasn't as prominent. We loved all the fun colors and we still had a pretty good color and size selection, but they were all short sleeved. 

We picked out some colors & sizes and went to try on our finds. I just had a baby so none of my clothes fit right. I loved the large Vintage tees. They were so comfortable and did not hug up on my post-baby belly. 

We made our selections and went to check out. The gal had never seen the coupons, but was very friendly and had no problem ringing them up. I was able to tell my friend & the cashier all about Crowd Tap and they both thought it was really neat. Also, I've already gotten compliments on my tees! Thank you Old Navy & Crowd Tap! We love our shirts!

Hotel Transylvania Movie Watch Party

VELCOME TO MY BLOG!
Saturday evening I hosted a Hotel Transylvania movie viewing party through Crowdtap.  We had 15 people & it was so much fun. I had not seen the movie yet, but it was really cute.  I thought it might be odd since it seemed like such a Halloween themed movie, but it also had a cute love story, perfect for Valentines Day!  We played a few games while dinner was being prepared.

The menu consisted of:

*Murray the Mummy Dogs (Hotdogs wrapped in cresent rolls)
*Fruit & Scream Cheese Dip (Strawberries & Apples to dip in a caramel cream cheese dip)
*Finger Carrots & Dip (Baby Carrots & Ranch)
*Chips & Zinging Salsa 
*Mini Mummy Dogs (Hotdogs wrapped in bacon, baked with brown sugar
*Vampires Only!  Blood Red Koolaid
*Cupcakes, You could really sink your teeth into

Next we had a Hotel Transylvania Valentine Card coloring contest.  We had 8 entrants (you could color as many as you wanted, but were only allowed to enter one into contest).  It was really hard judging!  Jett ended up winning first prize for the pencil shading of the bat, attention to detail & ability to stay in the lines.  He won a box of Shrunkin (Lemon) Heads Candy.   Runner Ups (everyone else) received a package of Coffin (Swiss Cake Rolls).

Then we watched the movie.  We crammed all 15 people in the living room and with eyes glued on the tv, we really enjoyed the movie!  It was funny & cute & held the kids attention well, except for the two 3 year olds.  They were in and out, but even my parents enjoyed it.  We had a really good time at the party.  The kids & adults both had a great time!  

Now for some questions!  After you watch the movie, come back & answer these in my comments!

1. Mavis makes the cutest little sad bat face to her dad Dracula. Does your little one have a look that just makes you want to do whatever they say? Are there other moments in HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA that were directly relatable to your life? 

My daughter Josephine is 2 and has us wrapped around her finger.  I am nervous for her to become a teenager!  It is soooo hard to say no to her.  Haha  

2. Dracula throws an awesome 118th birthday party for Mavis. Were there elements of her party that you wish you could have for your own birthday party or your child’s party? Would you love a monster band, dancing mummies or a travel around the world theme?

A live band would be awesome!  And how cool would a travel around the world themed party be?  There are so many things you could do to make it unique and creative!  Especially for a 16th or an 18th birthday party.  Love the idea!

3. Both Mavis & Dracula have some awesome vampire powers. For example, they can both turn into bats. Which one of their powers do you wish you could have? Or is there another monster FROM THE FILM who has a power you wish you could have? 

I would love to be able to fly or be invisible.  Can I pick both?  That would be awesome!

Hope you've enjoyed reading!  Now go buy this movie!  You won't regret it!
