Grilling Accessories

This is such a handy little grill light. We found it while shopping around for some pool accessories and my husband wanted to try it out. We grill outdoors six out of seven days a week, and on the weekends eating is never on schedule. We have late night parties between us and our kids, and people get hungry at night. You would be amazed at how much people will eat at midnight after swimming the whole day.

The light can pivot around the grill, and you can actually see what you are cooking and to see what needs more time and what is done. You can mount the light right on to your grill and it’s really easy to use. If you know a man that loves to grill, this is a great gift to give. It really does come in handy late at night or even just a closer look at what you are grilling. My husband loves it and uses it all the time now.

Kayak For The Summer

This was a gift I got from my boyfriend. We loving going out and head to the rivers and either float down them or kayak down them. Yes, this is kind of an expensive gift, but it’s so much fun and we love it. You definitely get your use out of it. I am so excited for summer to get here, because now I finally have my own kayak and I don’t have to ride with anyone.

It’s a great time to get out outdoors, and to have a good time. You can go with friends and family and sometimes it can get exciting if the river is high. It’s a relaxing time and it’s just fun to spend time with your friends and family. We always take a huge trip at the end of spring, beginning of summer, and go somewhere camping and we float down the rivers on tubes, kayaks and canoes. It’s a great time and if you like the outdoors, you would love doing this.

Moving Out

I just moved into a new apartment and out of my dad’s house. It’s the first time I’ve ever been on my own and I am so excited. For a couple of gifts I got, my dad gave me this really cute pink toaster. I think it is so cool and I just love it. I had my girls come over and help me unpack and get everything settled in, and they think it is so cute.

We had to use it right away and it’s just like a normal toaster, but it is so cool. I love it and it doesn’t make a big mess either. It’s easy to through away the crumbs after a couple uses with a removable tray at the bottom. Living in a new place is scary, but having little gifts from your parents help alot. Old, new, used, or anything from them gives you a little peace at night knowing that it was something of theirs.

How I Met Your Mother

I got the series ‘How I Met Your Mother’ for my cousin. He loves this show and can watch it all the time. He moved in with a few of his buddies and it is always a good time over there. They love watching this show and can not get enough of it. It’s season 6 of the series and I think he has all the season until now. I’ve only watched a couple episodes, but from what I’ve watched it was really funny!

His parents like to watch it too now, so when I go visit them, my uncle is watching it a lot of the time. I also got him a gift card to Best Buy, because he goes there almost every day it seems like and he is always getting something new. It’s crazy at all the gadgets he has and the technology he has at his apartment. He is a nerd but I love him any way.

Trampoline Heaven

We caved in and bought a trampoline for our two sons and our daughter. I use to have one when I was younger and I remember the fun times and the not so smart things done on one. So far, my husband has gotten up on it with the kids and they had a blast. I couldn’t help but laugh. It was such a great time.

The neighbor kids come over all the time to jump on the trampoline and we all get together at least 4 times a week when the weather is nice. I’m glad it’s getting used and so far it is a huge hit! I haven’t gotten on it yet, but I bet my kids will talk me into it sometime soon. Hopefully no ambulance will be called! My youngest son is so excited for his upcoming birthday and is bragging to all his friends about the trampoline. I am nervous to have all those kids over but I think everything will turn out great!

Movie Night!

This was a gift for our whole family to have. We wanted to get a projector and have a movie theater in our house for a while and we finally did it! I love having movie night at home, because all the kids stay home for one night and we get to relax together and spend time with each other. I am definitely going to take advantage of that, because I know they won’t do that forever.

We just got it set up a week ago and so far, the boys are always down there watching there favorite teams play during the night. I think I am going to have to make one rule that after the sun goes down, you can go down stairs and watch your shows and games. I love it though and it’s a great excuse for me and my husband to go relax and have a night to ourselves without spending the money at the movie theater.

The Perfect Shaving Mirror

This is perfect for any man out there! My husband got this from his sister and he just loves it. It’s a fogless shaving mirror. He is gets upset when he is trying to get a good shave right out of the shower, and the bathroom mirror is always fogged over. So far he loves it. He has it hanging in the shower and now he says he gets a perfect shave every time because he can see everything better.

The mirror even has a clock on it to keep you on schedule and not late for anything, which is perfect for him,because nine times out of ten he is always late. I love him, but lately if we have to be anywhere by a certain time, like 8:30, I will tell him we have to be there by 8:15, just so we can actually get there on time. I swear he is worse then me for getting ready for something. He loves this mirror and it has everything a guy needs for shaving accessories. It even holds your razor too!

Grass Charging Station

My boyfriend found this charging  station online and he just had to get it.He makes fun of me for having plants in our apartment, and why not just leave them outside, cause they die anyway. He says now we have grass in the house that will never die. It’s funny to have in on the kitchen counter, and when your friends come over, your phone is just sitting in the “grass.” They always question, “Why is your phone in the plants?’

All you have to do, is plug one cable into the bottom of the base, and then just plug in all your electronic devices through the grass and It works pretty well actually. It beats having all of your phone cables lying around all them time and getting in the way. Less hassle and less mess. It’s really genius. Now instead of using the wrong charger, or tangling all your chargers up, you hide all of the cords, and you can do it in a sylish, funny way.

Great Massaging Sit-Up Pillow

Talk about the perfect pregnancy gift. My husband just gave me this and I just love it. When I’ve had a long day I just come home set this massaging pillow up and rest my body. It is amazing. If you are a person who has alot of stress, or even pregnant this is great.

Since I’m pregnant, I get uncomfortable while laying down the whole time, so with this I can just sit up and watch TV comfortably or read a book. It is the perfect massager and it can de-stress me and take away my aches and pains in my lower back. My husband also likes to use it before he goes to bed. It’s so comfortable and I love it.

The Perfect Watch for Him

What a perfect gift for any man. It’s a watch with a bottle opener  attached to it. I got this for my boyfriends birthday and he loved it. It seems like every time you would need a bottle opener, you can never find one. You can pick between a green, yellow, or brown face. I got him the brown faced watch and it looks really nice on him.

He wears this now, every time we go out to a friends place, or out to the lake, or even to some games we go to. It’s always a big hit with his friends and I think he really likes it. He wears it all the time, and really, who wouldn’t love a bottle opener watch. It comes and handy and it looks really nice on. You can’t even tell what it is, and it could pass for a regular nice wearing watch.
