Please excuse my absence!

I know I am a little behind in my blog work.I have a few reviews/giveaways to post,winners to draw and more.I ask that everyone please understand,I am having family issues right now.My grandfather has been in the hospital for 3 weeks.There have been a few close calls and each time the phone rings,I am afraid to answer it.I have not forgotten any of you and I will be posting everything that needs to be done.This is my only grandfather and I am doing well to just get through each day,but I will be off work 4 of the next 7 days,so as long as nothing goes wrong,I plan to catch up in this time.Thank you for understanding.

Our Halloween Party

We finally had the kids Halloween party this past Friday.I say finally because it seemed to take forever for the day to get here,and it was over way too fast!

I spent hours making food,all with a Halloween theme.There was a watermelon brain,graveyard taco dip,string cheese fingers,hot dog mummies and more.Sadly I was so caught up in the process,I forgot to take pictures of the food! I did get lots of the kids and their costumes though!

For decorations,we made ghosts,bats,pumpkins and more to hang up everywhere out of construction paper.We also strung webbing all over and had 2 fantastic banners made for the occasion.Be sure to watch for my review of them!

The kids played games including the mummy wrap game,the circle game and relay races.Our prizes included Zhu Zhu Pets,Beyblades,Carolina Pad items and more.

There were about 20 people present for the party,and it was a big hit.I did learn a lesson though-give yourself extra time to make all the food by hand.It took forever to hand carve the brain and I had to leave the bottom sides unfinished because I ran out of time.

The Pumpkin Show

It is that time of year again.In our town the biggest attraction of the fall is the Pumpkin Show.For 5 days people come from all over to see and taste all things pumpkin.Of course the kids wanted to go,so we took them to enjoy the festivities.

The first thing they wanted to do was enjoy the rides.The boys are older,so they have more variety in their choices.They decided to go on the huge Ferris Wheel first.

While they did that,I took the Princess to ride the Merry-go-Round,which she loved!

They played a fishing game,where they each won a prize, before heading to their next rides.

I also have a hands on experience with the pumpkin show and was even taped by the local news because I helped to make the handmade pumpkin doughnuts they sell at the event.We made thousands of them last week and I smelled like pumpkin every day when I came home!

My Yoplait Save Lids to Save Lives Get Together

I am a supporter of breast cancer.I "think pink" all the time and do whatever I can to support the cause and spread the word.As a female,I am at risk,and so are you.I know that men can and do get breast cancer,but to me it is a disease that targets women.

When I was offered the chance to hold a Yoplait Save Lids to Save Lives® get-together,thanks to Pssst-General Mills,and My Get Together,I jumped on it.This would give me a chance to continue my support and invite my friends to do the same.I received a hostess package to assist in the get-together,which contained-

- A $15 cash card to purchase Yoplait yogurt to serve during the get-together.This enabled me to get a variety of flavors that everyone could enjoy.

- 15 product information sheets with coupon  to share with my guests
- A self exam shower hanger-this is really nice and I think everyone should have one
- Breast health flyers to distribute to my guests
- A copy of the book Promise Me, Nancy G. Brinker, the founder and CEO of Susan G. Komen for the Cure
- A Yoplait Save Lids to Save Lives bookmark for me to give as a party prize.I used mine for the person who brought the most lids with them
 They even included an allergen fact sheet so the guests could check the ingredients!

I invited a few friends and they brought some others as well.We discussed the ways to fight the cause,our favorite "pink" items and events and more.All my guests were thrilled to attend and happy to bring their Ypolait lids so we could mail them in.One of them even offered to mail all the lids collected for me as a thank you for inviting her!

I gave these cute Pink Ribbon Sharpie markers as favors along with the coupons and pink ribbon bracelets!

I know plenty of people are touched every day by breast cancer.So far I have been blessed to not know anyone who has been diagnosed with it,but I am aware that it can strike anyone,any time.That alone is enough reason to do what we can to put a stop to this horrid disease forever.You can do your part by turning in your own lids,purchasing "pink" products or just spreading the word about what can be done.

Go Steelers!

                                           In case you didn't know,I am a Steelers fan.

I love watching Ben,Troy and the rest of the team tear it up on the field.So far,this year,the boys are doing a great job and I hope they continue to do so in the future.I would love to see them take home another ring this year..fingers crossed!

Preparing for the Halloween Party

I am so excited about the kids party this weekend.I have been busily trying to get everything together to make it perfect.I was able to create banners for it from Build A Sign.I will be posting a review of them soon so be sure to check back.

I found lots of great recipes as well.I will be preparing hot dog mummies,cheese fingers,egg eyeballs a watermelon brain and more.I can't wait for the kids to see it all!

I found some great games in the Halloween Game Pack I reviewed and picked up some neat prizes like glow bracelets,goggly bands and more.I will be sure to post about it this weekend after everyone goes home.I will be having my mom and sister stay overnight after so it should be a fun filled weekend!

Super Costumes from Costume Supercenter

With Halloween coming closer,everyone is scrambling to find the perfect costume for their little ones.I know kids can be picky,and that just makes the process that much more difficult.I cannot tell you the amount of hours I have spent searching the Internet for whatever crazy costume they have each requested in the perfect style and the right size.

This year I had help in this department from  Costume Supercenter .From the easy navigation to the simplified categories,Costume Supercenter makes browsing a cinch.I was able to narrow it down to a few select choices.Of course then the hard part came as to which one to chose.In the end I had a little help from my niece Alyssa.She chose the horse costume to wear this year.I was a little surprised by her choice,given the selection they had,but hey kids are kids.

The shipping as always was fast, and the costume arrived in excellent condition.When I saw it in person I was much more impressed with it.This is one time where the pictures from the site did not do it justice.To complete the costume all we had to do was put her in a pair of jeans,a bandanna and plaid shirt and she became instant cowgirl.The horse is nice and soft and the costume is really easy to use.I wondered if she would have issues using it but she was able to get it on all by herself.The straps keep it in place and allow her to move freely.

My experiences with Costume Supercenter just keep getting better.Each time I find something I didn't see before and I now have a list of costumes I would love to have for myself and my kids.My favorite part of shopping with them is the suggested additions with each costume.They show you what goes with it to complete the look and you can buy the extras right there as well.

*I was provided with the mentioned costume to assist in my review.The opinions are my own.

Keep Tabs On Kid Stuff with Oliver's Labels

I was sent a selection of labels from Oliver's Labels to review.They were kind enough to send me some for both of my boys to try.I have mentioned before that this is the first year they are going to public school,so I love to send them off with things that are sure to make a statement.Oliver's Labels does a great job in that department!

I was able to chose the styles I wanted as well as the names I wanted printed on them. I love things that can be personalized for many reasons.It is much more fun to show off your style with items that reflect you and as a member of a family of picky children with unusual names,it is a great help to get what you want the way you want it.

Oliver's Labels offers a variety of designs like butterflies,school,sports and more.I chose the skulls for my oldest and the came for my youngest.I was thrilled to find something they both would like.

Once you have selected your design,you pick which types of labels you want.They offer stick or iron on clothing labels,mini labels,bag tags and more.You can then customize your labels and even see a preview of how it will look in just a few simple steps.Type in the name,click design theme and hit preview for a live view of your creation!

You can even have a free online tracking code put on your labels.Each code is attached to your email address,so if someone find a missing item with a label,they can log on to the site,notify the company and they will send you an email.There is no cost for this and it is totally optional too!

Oliver's Labels are high quality and waterproof  to stick on all your kids' stuff. The labels are dishwasher & laundry safe.

I am having a Halloween Party for the kids this weekend.I was looking for fun things for the party when I came across the review opportunity offered by Tomoson to try the Halloween Party Games Pack from Python Printable Games.

I Want a Trip to Branson for the Holidays

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Geile Leon. All opinions are 100% mine.

With 5 children,2 jobs,a blog,a home and a life;we rarely get time without the children.Earlier this year we decided that in order to maintain the thrill in our marriage,we need to do things by ourselves sometimes.I have found something I would like to do in the next couple of months,now I just need to convince my darling husband that it is a good idea..My anniversary is 3 days after Christmas..maybe I should ask for a weekend getaway!

A trip to Branson would give us a chance to relax and unwind.There are so may great things to do like

*The Acrobats of China in the  New Shanghai Circus.The exciting acts include the Big-Big Drums, Diabolo (Chinese Yo-Yo), Bicycle Tricks, Pole Climbing,Plate Spinning, Handstand Art, Human Top, Chair Stack and many more.

Adventure Ziplines of Branson is another attraction I would love,although husband is a bit afraid of heights.With 6 different zip lines to choose from,I would have a blast.I know I would make it through them all,even if I had to do it alone!

Even the hotels are to die for.The hard part is not finding a place to stay,it is deciding which place you want to stay! Maybe I would choose the Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing, situated on Lake Taneycomo.I could relax in the soft hued rooms and pool before shopping in the gift shop or crossing the street to the Branson Convention Center.

Although the Shopping Package is really great for a couple days of plastic swiping.This includes deluxe accommodations, a breakfast buffet for two and a $25 gift card good at any store in the Tanger Outlet Mall.My husband would like this one,it is an inexpensive deal at just $164 per night

It is a hard choice with the  Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel you can enjoy the steakhouse,valet parking,ballroom and more in a room with a flatscreen HDTV,work desk,high speed internet and mini fridge to keep those yummy treats from Simply Irresistible Old Fashioned Candy in downtown.

With the exclusive Fall in The City Package, starting at just $309.50 per night, I could enjoy two-night deluxe accommodations, plus two tickets on the Showboat Branson Belle for dinner and the show, two adult tickets to Silver Dollar City, a 50th Anniversary Silver Dollar City Souvenir Book and a $25 hotel food and beverage credit! A two-night minimum stay is required for booking this package,but that's great for me..2 days are better then 1!

I really,really want to go there now..any ideas how to get hubby to agree?

Drama Free and Loving It

I hate drama!
I hate he said/she said/they said blah blahblah.
I hate people that cause drama for no real reason other then boredom or ignorance.
I try to avoid other peoples' drama at all costs and if I can help it,I avoid having my own as well.I like to come home from work at least semi-happy and not have an hour of "I hate work complaints" ahead of me (my husband likes this too).

I have found that by staying clear of nonsense when possible and not getting involved,I am much more at peace with myself. I have less headaches,less stress and at 30, no worry lines in sight..woo-hoo! I don't see how people have the energy or desire to be in the center of  the drama circle all the time.Who needs that? With kids,life,home and work,I barely have time to think,let alone care about anyone else.

DRAMA=stress,worry,anger,annoyance,irritation,etc...BLAH NO THANKS!

Clean Your Lenses with Brilliant Lenses Cleaner

I was given the chance to try the Brilliant Lenses Cleaner recently and I wanted to share my find with you.

Brilliant Lenses  is a premium eyeglass cleaner with SR-8 which adds a protective barrier to your lenses to resist scratches and soiling from water, sweat, dirt,dust and more. This works on all types of lenses too,so no more individual products for different glasses or owners.You can keep this in the medicine cabinet,glove box,kitchen drawer or anywhere else conventient so it allows easy access to everyone who needs it..or hide it away and keep it for yourself.

We tried the cleaner on both my sons and my own prescription eyeglasses,my daughters dress up glasses,reading glasses and even a pair of sunglasses and it worked great every time.This is a quick and easy way to keep your glasses free from spots and streaks,so your sight is the way it should be.Simply spray a small amount on the cloth,wipe across the desired area and BAM..clean glasses in seconds!

 

 I was sent not only the Brilliant Lenses Cleaner but also the optical microfiber cloth to assist in the cleaning process,all in a small,white cinch style storage bag .The cloth was soft and made it a cinch to get the right amount of cleaner on the lenses without dripping or streaking them at the same time.My husband was impressed with this as well and even took one of the bottles to keep in the car.

This Product Was a Free Giveaway  as a member of Tomoson, the opinions are that of myself and my husband.

Clean Your Teeth with Bryton Pick Review

I have been trying new oral care items in my house recently in an effort to stress the importance of proper oral hygiene.I have been stressing to them how important keeping your teeth clean really is.Yes,it helps to brush,but brushing alone doesn't do it all.

I was sent a product to assist with this healthy mouth awareness from Bryton Pick.Bryton Pick is a safe,effective way to clean between teeth.I have always hated floss.I seem to end up going down to far and cutting my gums.With the Bryton Pick,I didn't have this issue.I tried the  pink pick and gave my husband the green one to use.The center is plastic so you can get a good grip and each end is  flexible and flat to get between teeth.We didn't have any issues with getting the slim end to fit between our teeth and it is really simple to use.My darling husband says he didn't really see a difference between the job the Bryton pick does and regular floss,however he liked that it is small,handy and he doesn't have to mess with that stringy floss anymore.In his opinion, even if the cleaning is actually the same,the convenience and easy carry pouch out Bryton Pick aboue other methods.

I had a different reaction.I agree that this is simple and quick to use,but I think it is more attractive as well.You can keep a Bryton Pick in your purse or wallet for easy access,yet it stays safe and clean in the ouch.The pick is appealing to the eye,much more so then a string of wax between your teeth and using it is much more discreet.They offer a nice selection of colors so you can find one to match your decor or just in your favorite shade.I liked the Bryton pick and would use it again.I have even told a few of my friends they should grab a few for themselves and I expect that they probably will.

This Product Was a Free Giveaway from Bryton Pick and Tomoson which I received as a member and reviewer.The opinions are my own.

Save Lives With Cord Blood and Cryo-Cell

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of CryoCell International. All opinions are 100% mine.

Whether you're expecting or just gathering information for the future,Cord Blood Banking is something you should know about.U-Cord blood stem cells are known to treat over 75 diseases, and have been used in over 12,000 transplants worldwide.There is no replacement for the benefits that can be gained from this simple procedure.While you or your family may never need the services,what if you did and didn't have it available?

Modern medicine has helped to save many lives,but in order to make the right decisions,we need to be properly informed of the risks and benefits of our actions.Some important questions and points to consider are-

> Cord blood stem cells are easily extracted, resulting in no risk or pain for the mother or baby. Alternatively, bone marrow collection is an invasive procedure and requires general anesthesia with its inherent risks

> Often, matched stem cells, which are necessary for transplant, are difficult to obtain due to strict matching requirements. But cells taken from your newborn are a perfect match for your baby for his or her lifetime

>While saving your child's U-Cord stem cells is an investment, it still costs less than many families spend on their child's nursery. Plus, storage fees after the first year are less than $3/week,if you donate them to a public bank,they may not be there if you need them.
Cryo-Cell is leading the industry in quality,with more quality accreditations than any private cord blood bank.Cryo-Cell is FDA certified and up to 31% less expensive then other similar companies.With their Innovative Stem Cell Solutions,Protect Baby/Protect Mom Exclusive Combination Service and $50,000 Guarantee, it's no wonder they are a top choice in the important task of saving lives through cord blood banking.Established in 1989,Cryo-Cell is a trusted and recognized name,someone you can feel safe with.

Gummy Fun with Glee Review and Giveaway

 My children love to do hands on activities.I try to find them original craft or play kits to keep them occupied.When I came across the opportunity to try the Glee Gum Make Your Own Gummies Kit,I jumped on it.

I had never tried the Glee products before,although I had heard about them many times.When my box arrived,safe and secure,I opened it to find,not only a gummy kit,but also a few packs of the Glee Gum to try.My boys enjoyed taking the mini packs with them to school for lunch.Each box contained 2 pieces of square gum.I received,Spearmint,Tangerine,Berry, Cinnamon and more to try.I think the favorite was the Berry or Tangerine.

The Make Your Own Gummies Kit included real dried seaweed,powdered seaweed,sour mix,colored sugar and molding starch.First we put the seaweed in a bowl of water.

The kids were enchanted watching it grow and grow and develop a gel.It was like a mini science experiment for them.Next we used the molding starch to make our gummy shapes.We used straws to make worms,a small care bear figure,a basket to my daughters Strawberry Shortcake figure and more to make different shapes for the kids to mold.

The boys added the powdered seaweed to the seaweed gel and we heated it in the microwave for about a minute and 45 seconds until it became "gummy".Once it was removed we stirred in the colored sugar and used a spoon to gently pour the mix into the molds we had made.As the mixture cools,it thickens so after a few minutes we had to stop.We put the finished molds into the fridge to cool for 5-10 minutes.Once they had cooled,we simply removed them from the molding starch,wiped them off and dropped them in the sour mix to coat.

This was a fun experience for the kids.The kit has every needed to make these,except the shapes you use to mold.The heating can be done both on the stove top or the microwave and clean-up was a snap.The kids had so much fun doing this that I would like to try the other kits they offer too.I was able to find something each of them could do to help.Even the Princess,at 4,was able to participate.

You can find the location nearest you by checking out Glees store locator

Glee has decided to let one of you join in the fun.1 winner will receive their choice of kit .Make Your Own Chewing Gum, Gummies or Chocolate!

Randomness from My World

So it is Sunday night and I am once again preparing for the week ahead.I am trying to find the perfect balance between home and work.I work part time outside of the home and of course the work I put into my blog.With all the children and planning a Halloween party now too,I am stressed! I did grab some great finds today for the party,which I will share with you when I load more photos from my phone.

The kids are n a delay tomorrow,they go to school 2 hours late..that means I get to sleep in 2 extra hours! I really hate to sleep in when I have to work though,by the time I eat,shower and get ready it is time to go to work.Blah!

Where I live the whole town revolves around the Pumpkin Show.It is basically a county fair type thing but focused on Pumpkins.Last year I went just to get a pumpkin roll,which I did find,but had to pay 12 dollars for it! This time,I'm getting store bought because I just don't have time to bake more stuff right now.

I am still looking for games and ideas for the Halloween party if anyone has any.
What about you,are you busy lately?

My Favorite Place to Shop Online is CSN Stores

I love shopping.I can shop anywhere,anytime,but my favorite place to shop is online.I like to be able to browse as  I choose,not restricted by store hours or schedule conflicts.I am a fan of kicking back in my pjs and spending hours browsing my favorite shops.One of the best places to do this is CSN Stores.With over 200 stores to roam,I could get caught up all day.

I know you are dying to hear about my newest finds,and I won't dissapoint.Now that my children are all out of the toddler stage,I feel comfortable putting back some of the items I removed for their safety.I really could use some  end tables to go with my new living room floor.Of course,as with everything else, I can find these at CSN Stores.I was thinking that I would like to have a couple of these fabulous aquarium tables, and there is even a coffee table to match!

This has to be the most unique end table I have ever seen and I want it bad!

I think this ItalModern Rafaella Round Glass Side Table in black or blue would be cute as a bedside stand in my boys room too.Of course there are so many choices,it would take me hours just to narrow it down to a top 5.I love CSN!

I will be bringing you more from CSN Stores later so be sure to check back for my fabulous finds!

Healthy and Green with Eco-Store

I am the first to admit,I am not as green as I could be.I am too attached to the ease of things to give a thought to the benefits of being more earth aware.I know that I should be though,and recently I have tried to improve my green awareness and use more healthy and environmentally safe products.I have found many helpful items during my blog roaming and one of those is Eco Store.I was given a chance to try their products and was thrilled to accept.I received the  Citrus Based All Purpose Cleaner and the Coconut and Vanilla Body Wash to try.

I tried the cleaner first because I have an obsession with trying new ones.I love to see how well a cleaner really works so I make a big mess on purpose to test it first.I tried this on the counters,the fridge and even the outside of the toilet and it cleaned everything like new.The scent is not too strong, just a slight "clean" smell and there is no residue left behind.I cleaned juice spills,food drops on the stove and even dried ketchup with ease.

I am very picky about my shower gels or soaps.I hate to have a film left on my skin or an oily layer left behind,so I was a bit hesitant of trying this item.I was very happy with the results though once I started using it.The lather is nice and soft and the scent is not overbearing.I asked my darling husband if he could smell it on me in the shower and he said yes but not too much.I like that it leaves your skin feeling smooth,as if you had rubbed lotion on it.

All in all I am thrilled with my new products,now I just have to get more! I highly recommend Eco Store for all your family needs.You can get products for your baby,your pet,your home and yourself all in one place.

Right now Eco Store is running a special as well-buy any two Household products and receive a Pure Oxygen Whitener FREE!
All orders over $25 get FREE SHIPPING too!!


*I received the mentioned products from Eco Store to assist in my review.I was not compensated in any other way,nor was a positive review required.The opinions are my own and that of my husband.I am not responsible for experiences that are different then my own.

Say It In Style with Crazy Dog Halloween Havoc Review and Giveaway

I have discovered a favorite place to shop for my husband.I guess it would be helpful to say that my husband is a jeans and tshirt kind of guy.I saw him in a tie once..at our wedding.Not only does he prefer tshirts,but he likes them to be comical.It can be very hard to find new and fun shirts for him to wear that fit his style.

When I was given the chance to review a shirt for Crazy Dog Tshirts, I knew I had to use this opportunity to find him something new.There were quite a few shirts that I knew he would love,so it took awhile to narrow it down.

I knew he would like this flashback Contra shirt

and  this Family Guy shirt too.

I love their selection of Garbage Pail Kids tees

but I finally settled on the What Would Jason Do shirt because I knew he would have a laugh over it.

When I showed him his new shirt,he of course loved it.He says it fits well,not snug and not too loose.Even with being washed and dried the decal hasn't peeled or cracked at all and the shirt hasn't shrunk in size.I like that the black actually looks like black.Sometimes you order something black and it looks more dark blue or dark grey,but not with Crazy Dog tees.

With Halloween coming you can shop for your costume at Crazy Dog too.They have a great selection of  Mens Halloween Costumes like  Bert and Ernie

Ladies,let me tell you their selection of Sexy Costumes is sure to please.Who wouldn't be impressed by these?

A lucky reader will get to experience their own shirt from Crazy Dog.One winner will receive their choice of a mystery tee or a $15 gift code to use on the site.There are many low priced shirts to choose from,including the daily special -3 different shirts that are $6.99 or less.With these deals,you are sure to find what's right for you.

Bitch and Moan-People Piss Me Off

From the first time I read this,started by Annette ,I planned to participate.I get so far behind on email sometimes that I don't even read hers until Sunday and then,I am too late.So this week I made sure to come by and vent!

People really do piss me off. Who the hell gave a school bus driver permission to scream at my children on an intercom? I seriously wanted to grab her off the bus and smack the stupid out of her.I couldn't care less that she yelled at all the kids,not just mine.All that matters to me is she did,in fact,yell at my babies.So I did,in fact,call her boss and inform him that he better get his driver under control.I nicely informed him the next time she did that,I would be handling the situation for him.

Why do men think women can just know what the hell they think? Why do they assume that because it makes sense in their twisted man brain,that it makes perfect sense to me as well?
ATTN MEN-I do not know how you feet,what you mean,what you want,need or otherwise if you don't tell me! GRRR..some days I hate men!!

Why is it that people you work with THINK they can act as ignorant as they want and you won't care? Did you really think I could come in on my day off and stand around forever waiting on you to get your ass over there to see what I want; and then not make you pay for it later?

That's about all really.Not a whole lot to bitch about,yet still enough to make me want to scream.

Getting Ready for Christmas with CSN

Have you started your holiday shopping yet this year? I have found that if I don't start early,I am rushing around a week before Christmas trying to get everyone covered.I usually always start with the kids and go from there.Each year it seems there are more and more people to buy for,someone gets married,has a baby etc and the list just keeps growing.One place that helps me keep a handle on my shopping and spending is CSN Stores.

With over 200 stores to browse,I can literally spend hours looking for the perfect gift for anyone on my list.I was having such a hard time trying to figure out what to get my newest niece this year until I came across their  fabulous collection of Jo Jo Designs baby outfits.They have a nice selection in a variety of colors and designs.I was only looking for a simple dress or cool weather outfit and instead I found about 20 that I would love to get for her.My first choice is the 2 Piece Bandana Hanky Leggings Outfit.I love the pink and black color combination and the fact that this can be worn as either a 2 piece outfit or a dress without the bottoms.Made of 100 % cotton,it is safe for baby to wear and comfy too.

At CSN the shopping is easy,the selection is huge and the prices can't be beat.I know I will be looking there for many more gifts for this holiday season and I suggest you go there as well.With a little time and the easy navigation at CSN,I bet you can check off more than a few items on your list.

Get Up and Going with Playstation Move

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of PlayStation MOVE. All opinions are 100% mine.

Have you heard about the new feature for Playstation? Playstation Move  is an exciting new addition to an already awesome gaming system.With the new Move you can get interactive and involved instead of sitting around pushing buttons.This is a great way to enjoy gaming and burn a few calories while you are at it.

Sometimes it can be difficult to find a game that suits the whole family and can be enjoyed together.Yeah,you can easily find a game the kids enjoy,but do you really want to sit down and play it with them? Most adult games are not suitable for children,so again this cuts into together time.Imagine ,however finding a game or games that you can make into a family game night.This is a great way to stay active and still spend that quality time together.This is a great way to get the kids to play together without all the bickering and arguing that can sometimes go hand in hand with gaming.No fighting over who gets to play next or who plays better.Not only can they play and have fun,but maybe give you a moments peace as well.

Playststion Move can be great for couples as well.How many times have you asked hubby to turn off that war game or stop shooting zombies long enough too hold a serious conversation? By playing together you can still talk and interact while doing something you both enjoy.I like to play sports game like boxing or tennis while my darling husband enjoys racing games.It is so much more fun to play and interactive game that lets you feel like you are really bowling ,running,swinging and more.

You can bring motion gaming exclusively to your existing PlayStation®3 for only $99 with the MOVE bundle package! This is a great deal for the family time and quality gaming you will receive.
