Hair Do and Target gift Card winner!

After much debat I finally decided to get my hair cut.  Here is my before & after......

Before my hair was long, all one length and boring.

NOW......................

It's shoulder length, layered, bouncy and fun. 

I LOVE it!

(Sorry for the wonky scanned photo!!)

I showed this photo to my hairdresser...........

and told her I wanted similar, but no identical.  The over-all cut is the same but I went shorter.

Now, for my fun little $25.00 Target Gift Card GiveAway WINNNER..................

Ten on Tuesday........Just random thoughts.........Oh,and a GiveAway!!

1.  My little Princess went to the doctor yesterday and was given a clean bill of health!  YEAH!!

2. Through my genealogy research I have just discovered that Katherine Parr, last wife of Henry VIII was a distant cousin.  I decend from her maternal uncle Thomas Green!!  Her mother was Maud Green sister to Thomas Green!!  How cool is that!!!!

3.  It is mid-May and we have had rain for the past 2 days.  YUCK!!  A year ago today the temp was 93, today it's 56.  Atleast my yard is REALLY green and all my flowers are in full bloom.

4. I have My Boys first IEP meeting with the school staff on Thursday to find out what, if any, services will be provided to him next year to help improve his reading ability.  I'm a little on edge about this meeting.  As I stated here, We strongly feel he has dyslexia, and the likely hood of in school services being provided is pretty slim. 

5.   I can't beleive my kiddies have just a few more weeks of school.  I'm busy getting summer activites lined up.  I usually do various camps, but that's not in the budget this year, so I'm madly putting together little activites to do at home.  I'll be sharing them here once we get rolling...be sure to check in to see our "Virtual Road Trip" across the USA learning about all the states. I also have some fun nature walk activites lined up.  In addition to a fun summer scrapbook each of the kids will be making as our summer progresses.  My girls are super excited and keep asking if we can start "NOW!" 

6. Thanks to the generosity of neighbors and friends I have not had to make dinner once since coming home from the hospital!  It's nice!  Although I feel kinda awkward accepting meals when The Princess is back to her healthy self.  My good friend say "Just enjoy it! People want to do it, let them do it!!"  Last night a fireman friend made us a yummy pasta dish, ceasar salad and homemade croutons......all of which he made himself and delivered himself.  His wife said he was so cute in the kitchen and wouldn't let her help at all.  Thanks Rich!!

7.  I cleaned out my closet yesterday and discovered...I need a new wardrobe!!  I also discovered I have not purchased a new article of clothing in almost 2 years.  YIKES!!  I definetly need some updated stuff.

8.  I saw a lady at the deli yesterday that had the CUTIEST purse.  I'm kicking myself that I didn't ask her where she got it.  It was super cute and as with my wardrobe, I need a new purse!

9.  Do you ever wish there was a master "customer card"?  You know the little cards you get from various stores that offer you discounts or custmoer rewards?  I have about 15 of these and let me tell you...it's annoying!  I wish I could just pull out one card and be on my way, instead I have to sort through a stack to find the one I need.  I know it's a little thing, but it's the little things I find annoying!

10.  Remember this post?  Well, I did it!!  I got my hair cut!!  For fun I'm going to giveaway a $25 Target gift card to celebrate!!!  Just leave me a comment with your "Guess" of which hair do I chose!!  Entries accepted until 8pm Pacific Standard Time Friday May 21.  Winner annouced Monday May 24th!!

Review and a GIVEAWAY!!! Winner Chosen!

Today is an exciting day at This, That & Everything!  I've recently been given the opportunity to do a product review of Light Up Marble Racers, a toy made in the USA and distributed by Skullduggery, Inc.  In addition the company has generously offered to provide one of my lucky readers a 6-car collector set of these fun little toys!  How fun!!!

As soon as these arrived my son could not wait to rip the packages open and get started. 

 My kids are big fans of any type of car toy!

There are 6 different styles of car you can collect. 

Each contain a rolling marble in the center that lights up with a flashing red and blue light! 

My kids loved that the best!

Each car comes with a set of stickers to put on the clear body. 

This was a little difficult for my kids and required lots of adult help.

The kids loved racing these across our dining room floor to see who's could go the furthest and who could make theirs light up first.  It made for an enjoyable afternoon of laughter and shouts of "I won!"

These are a fun unique car and would be great for any kid who enjoys Hot Wheel or Matchbox type cars.

They are not recommend for children under age 3 and under as they do contain small  parts that could cause a choking hazard.  Again, they do require adult assistance in placing the stickers.
