Let the games begin!


Have you heard of House Party?

What is it you ask?  It's seriously one of the coolest party places around.  They tell you about upcoming parties from the products and brands you love and you decide which ones make your heart beat a little faster.
    You get to spread the love. They give you all the tools you’ll need. All you do is invite your friends. In return you get exclusive access to try and share some cool products with them, courtesy of a rockin’ Party Pack.    Here are a few of the past party packs I have received and got to share with my peeps.

Benefit Cosmetic Party Pack

 
 
Avcacados from Mexico Party Pack

 
 
Own Skin Care System Party Pack
 
 
 
And these are just a few.  The latest party pack I received was for Hasbro and it was a Bejeweled & Twister Party Pack.
 
 
 
 
I took it to a Halloween party we attended and my daughter and her friends had a blast. 
 
 





So what are you waiting for?  Head on over to House Party and see if you can be their next host.


These are some of the blogs that I like to party with here.

All these opinion are my very own and I was compensated with a free party pack to try and share.

Our Newest Addition



Introducing our newest addition to our Ohana. He was an early Christmas present for my daughter. His name is Aka {ah ka} which means shadow in Hawaiian. After 4 days he was living up to his name and following my daughter around like a shadow everywhere she went.  He has moved on to following the rest of the ohana as well if one of us leaves the room he is in.



He loves to give kisses <3


And, he loves to chew fingers....

Dollar store Frames



Here is an easy and cheap craft to do. I have seen several of these done in all sorts of ways here on blog land. Here is my take.

First, get some $1 store frames. {Mine are all 5X7}
You will also need vinyl letters, or large stickers.  Heck if you are good at painting, you could even paint the letters on the glass.  I cut my vinyl letters with my silhouette which I don't use nearly as much as I would like to.

Note:  You can have the letters on the inside of the glass or the outside.  If you desire it on the inside, don't for get to cut vinyl letters out backwards.  I forgot about that and had to re cut my letters because I wanted them on the inside.
OK, back to the project.  I took the glass and backings out of the frames and spray painted the frames black.  I then stuck the vinyl letters on the inside of the glass.  I then reinstalled the glass back into the frame with hot glue.  You can put the backings and everything back into the frames if you don't like the see through look.  In this case, you would not have to glue the glass to the frames.  Let it dry if you glue the glass in.

Once everything was dry, I arranged the frames side by side until I got the look of the frames I wanted.  I then glued the frames together side by side.



Let dry and that was it.  Simple!  You could also just hang the frames individually on the wall without gluing them together.  Have fun with it.

I'm Party with my peeps here.
