If you have a Wii and enjoy playing with your entire family then I'm sure you will enjoy a little family competition. We own the original Family Game Night and will pop it in everyone once in a while for a little bit of fun. So when I was asked to review Family Game 4 The Game Show we immediately said yes. One thing we love to review here at Shibley Smiles is board and video games, that is just how we roll. The night it came in happen to be a … [Read more...]
We have had our Whirlpool Duet Washer and Dryer for over 3 months now. So I thought it would be a good time to sum out my overall impression and thoughts about our set. I won't lie, I'll be honest, the truth is...I really do LOVE my Whirlpool washer and dryer. Laundry day is now just a day and not the weekend and first part of the following week. Everything runs smoothly and it just makes the laundry process so much easier. My favorite … [Read more...]
When LeeAnn mentioned she had secured Boon as a sponsor for our Countdown to Black Friday Gift Guide event I wasn’t sure that I would find anything that our family could review. That was until she showed me the Animal Bag. What an awesome idea and space saver! Honey has tons and tons of stuffed animals as do most little girls. Every once in a while we go through them and donate some to Goodwill. Even so her closet shelf is full of stuffed … [Read more...]
I love photos on canvas, I think they are such a great gift. So much so that one year I purchased one for my sister showcasing her family photo. Last year I gave my mother one for Christmas that I put in a nice frame that hangs nicely in her stairwell. They are beautiful but I had never purchased one for myself. When Easy Canvas Prints joined Countdown to Black Friday my first thought was to get my sister a new canvas with and updated photo. … [Read more...]
MOGO Charm Bracelets, could be the fad of the year. At first I thought these sound kind of neat but after receiving them I love them. The colors are so vibrant and the charms are beautiful. It is a fun twist on a traditional charm bracelet. No dangling charms on this arm just some BLING! I thought the bracelet was going to be for my daughter but it turned out my son thought they were cool as well. He especially loved the yin yang charm … [Read more...]
With 5 people in the house finding room for everyone to sit when we watch a family movie is not easy. Often I find myself on the sofa with two children in some of the most uncomfortable positions. Usually I would love to lay down while watching a movie. A couple years ago I purchased three bean bag chairs for the children thinking that may solve our problem. However soon after being purchased they became flat as a pancake. I had never heard of … [Read more...]
My daughter is all about the books and reading right now. Now that she is in kindergarten and learning how to read she wants more, more, and more. I think she feels empowered and accomplished as she learns new words. Hallmark's interactive story buddies was a perfect birthday for Honey. Not only did she get a cute book but a fun buddy to read with her. Meet Abigail, the chatty acrobatic bunny who just can't wait to grow up. Kids will … [Read more...]
Quite some time ago my husband and I did a little home re-arranging. We returned our family room into an exercise room, and in doing so we needed to move the computer. When we did this we moved our large desk into my sons room, leaving our computer on top a small desk in our living room. Moving from a large desk to a small desk we lost one important thing...a place to house our printer. I can hook up my printer to any computer accept where I need … [Read more...]
When I hear Olive Bungalow I think of a small little hut somewhere on the beach, with palm trees swaying in the wind and a hammock for lazy naps. However this is far from where the artist behind Olive Bungalow resides. Michele the one person show behind the beautiful designs at Olive Bungalow looks out her window over the desert and mountain range in Arizona. Olive Bungalow is all handmade jewelry by Michele. The jewelry is beautiful and … [Read more...]
When LeeAnn (The Life of Rylie...and Bryce too!) and I began getting together our Countdown To Black Friday Event one of the questions was what to feature. When LeeAnn asked me about the PlasmaCar. I asked, "PlasmaCar?" How could I have never heard of this toy before this holiday season. I'm surprised my kids had never mentioned it. It seems to be quite a "hot" toy. In fact it has won several awards. 2009: Voted #1 Top Spring and Summer … [Read more...]
Do you ever walk through the toy isles wondering what do I get my daughter, niece, or that special girl in your life? Barbies, Squinkies, Pet Shops, dolls, dolls, and more dolls. They dolls all look similar none of them standing out about the rest. A doll is a doll right? Then you have yet to come upon a My Twinn doll. When I was asked to review one of these dolls I too had not really heard much of them, however the name My Twinn definitely was … [Read more...]
