#Giveaway Teleflora Robertsons Inspired 

Arrangements “Duck the Halls” #MerryQuackmas
Teleflora’s Jeweled Ornament ($52.95)
Once the holidays begin and the tree is up, I cannot help but think of my next favorite thing-flowers! Every year our family sends flowers as a form of love to ones we cannot actually spend Christmas with. Since our family is all over it is just something we have found to be a very heartwarming way to represent ourselves in their homes. This year I was pleasantly surprised to find out about The Robertsons inspired arrangements “Ducky Dynasty”. After catching a few episodes of Duck Dynasty I did not know what to expect from them when it came to floral arrangements. It looks like they have an awesome flair for floral arranging. Our family was thrilled to be able to check out two of the three arrangements up close when they were delivered to our house. Let me tell you that our house smells heavenly, not to mention how gorgeous the arrangements are.
How gorgeous is this?

Recently I also had the chance to meet up and chat with Korie Robertson first hand. She is just a delight to talk to and has so many wonderful ideas. We chatted about the holidays and about her family’s love of Christmas!
“Giving and receiving a beautiful bouquet, combined with the holiday fun of the Duck the Halls music, is the perfect way to spread holiday cheer to loved ones near and far,” said Tracey Moses, chief marketing officer, Teleflora. “We are thrilled to partner with the Robertson family, who enjoy celebrating the holidays with their joyful family Christmas traditions.”

“Quack Friday,”consumers can receive free digital music downloads from the album “Duck the Halls – A Robertson Family Christmas” with the purchase of a Teleflora holiday bouquet hand-picked by one of three Robertson couples including: Willie and Korie, Jase and Missy, and Jep and Jessica.
Teleflora’s Holiday Flair Centerpiece ($64.95
Hand Blown Glass Bowl!
“Having fresh, festive flowers in our home and on our dinner table during the holidays really helps brings the season to life,” said Willie and Korie Robertson. “We are so excited to partner with Teleflora this Christmas to ‘duck’ our holiday halls with festive holiday arrangements.”

The three couples’ favorite Teleflora holiday bouquets include: Teleflora’s Holiday Flair Centerpiece ($64.95) – Willie and Korie are donning their yuletide table with Teleflora’s Holiday Flair Centerpiece. This hand-blown glass bowl filled with red roses is a great way to “Duck the Halls” for the whole family.

Teleflora’s Jeweled Ornament ($52.95) – Jase and Missy love celebrating the season by decorating their home with fresh blooms. Teleflora’s Jeweled Ornament Bouquet, featuring red roses is their go-to choice for adding festive flair to the season.

Teleflora’s Send a Hug® Cuddle Bears Bouquet ($49.95) – Jep and Jessica are sending warm bear hugs to their friends and family during the holidays. This irresistibly sweet, limited-edition, polar bear vase is bursting with red and white florals and lets their loved ones know that they are close to their hearts.

#Giveaway LeSportSac Make The Trip 
Lighter On Everyone! @LeSportSac
#Roadtrip2fun (4 winners)
#CountdownToChristmas

Our road trip to Disney was a blast. It had it’s ups and downs but for the most part it was an amazing experience. Being away from home for sixteen days can really get tiring. Spending time going from theme park to theme park can be exhausting, so I was thrilled to have along my Le SportSac bags to lighten the load. Of course I could not choose what bag to bring along so I brought more than one. They are addictive, right? There was definitely some kind of thrill about wearing my Small World bag and being inside of Disney’s Magic Kingdom. Our family even took the challenge of finding everything on my bag that matched up to the ride. That was so much fun!



This is the LeSportSac Small World bag ON the Small World ride at Disney World.
We found everything on the bag during the ride!

The Polynesian is one of our favorite places to stay! It’s also where we spend our last morning of the trip no matter where we stay. On the last day we celebrate our family time by having breakfast at “Ohana”, a 
celebration of family, Polynesian foods, Lilo, Stitch and Disney Characters. I was thrilled to have my 
Le Sport Sac bag along for the fun! The last leg of the Small World bags are the Polynesian bags.
They are wonderful and come in all different sizes! There is one for everyone. Actually, I think this one is my favorite of all the bags so far. I love have the little girl hangs off the bag and I love all the sizes they come in. 
Since I vary my bag size, this is perfect! There are days I need to carry everything with me and other days where I just want to throw my keys, licence and phone into a small bag and go!
If you are looking for the PERFECT holiday gift or any time gift Le Sport Sac has you covered! 
GIVEAWAY!!!!
The wonderful and giving folks at LeSportSac are giving FOUR 3decades3kids readers each one bag!
The bag will be random, but one of the ones pictured on this page! Giveaway ends on December 15th. Christmas delivery not guaranteed, but I will try! Thank you LeSportSac. 🙂

#SprintMom Sprint Has Amazing Things Going On! @sprint #CellPhones #family

    Sprint Has Amazing Things Going On!  

 Recently I had the privilege of attending the Sprint Mom NYC event held at the Sprint Executive Briefing Center, where I got to see the latest tech that Sprint has to offer– particularly their brand new apps, phones, and plans/network perks. I was amazed at how much Sprint has to offer, particularly for families!

     A big hit in that regard is Sprint’s “Family Locator” app, which allows parents to remotely keep an eye on their children from any mobile phone or computer connected to the same plan. The service simply requires a web-enabled Sprint phone or a computer connected to the Internet, a plan that includes data, and other Sprint phones (all Sprint cell phones contain built-in GPS that can be used in conjunction with this.) It’s a great tool for keeping track of your family, and for making sure the kids are where they’re supposed to be!

     Another revolutionary piece of family safety technology from Sprint is Drive First, a free program which automatically shuts down your phone when you are in a vehicle moving 10mph or more. While you are driving, it automatically responds to texts and calls so you don’t get distracted. It also has the capability to be easily overridden in emergency situations, with quick access to dialing 9-1-1 when necessary.

     New phones and gadgets were also on display, including the latest in Samsung’s Galaxy line– like the Galaxy Gear. Samsung’s Galaxy Gear is a watch that links to your smartphone, allowing you to access texts, voice messages, and more from right on your wrist! Sprint also showcased all the things that are possible when using the Sprint network, using this video to drive the point home.

     As a mom wrapped up in a world of technology, I’m thrilled with all that Sprint has to offer! #sprintmom

Activision and Nickelodeon Present: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles– the Video Game! #GIVEAWAY

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 
Christmas Countdown Giveaway

     Our family has been Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fans from the beginning– I remember watching the original cartoon with my first son in the 90s, then the newer version in the early 2000s with my second son, and now my daughter loves to see the Turtles on Nickelodeon. Naturally we were thrilled to hear that there is a new TMNT game on the market, and even more excited at the chance to play it!

     The game, called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles after the TV show, follows the four heroes as they battle through New York City to defeat the Shredder, facing some of their most fearsome foes along the way. It’s a blast to play, and what really stood out about it is that we can all play together at the same time, as the game allows up to four players to control the Turtles at once!

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles offers hours on hours of game play, with plenty of different modes to play– like Time Attack, Challenge Mode, and more! This game is excellent for all fans of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles… it was certainly a great time for our family!

GIVEAWAY:
Win TMNT now! Giveaway ends December 15th. Christmas delivery not guaranteed but will try.

#GIVEAWAY Skylanders: Swap Force

#GIVEAWAY
Skylanders Swap Force
Recently my family had the pure pleasure of attending the Activision Family Game Summit in NYC. What an amazing time to mix and mingle and be shown the Skylanders Swap Force by none other that the creators! We had a chance to sample the game right there and absolutely loved it! 

My family and I have always been huge fans of the Skylanders franchise. We’ve been playing the games since Spyro’s Adventure, and we have over 40 Skylanders including Eye Brawl, Hot Dog, and Zoo Lou. My kids could not wait to get their hands on the newest title in the series, Skylanders: Swap Force, in which characters like Wash Buckler and Blast Zone can swap their legs and torsos to make figures such as Wash Zone and Blast Buckler.
These are just a couple of the great combinations you can make with the
Swappers!

My children loved that they could switch around the characters. When I tried it, my son used the top half of Wash Buckler and the bottom half of Blast Zone, and I used the top half of Blast Zone and the bottom half of Wash Buckler. The switchable parts really make playing the game a whole lot different. It changes the experience completely, in the best way possible.
GIVEAWAY:
Through the kind folks at Activision I am able to provide one lucky reader with a starter set of  Skylanders Swap Force! Contest ends December 15th, 2013. Christmas delivery not guaranteed.
