Hey guys! Checking in quickly as we get ready to head off to Nebraska soon. I wanted to tell you all about a fun new site that I have been involved with for a little bit, the Odwalla Smoothies for Kids Goodness Grove! The little guy made a quick little video to tell you all about it…

I’m so excited about being an Odwalla Ambassador for this fabulous site! We’ve talked about all kinds of fun topics over there for the last month. If you haven’t checked out the Goodness Grove you need to come on over and share in the fun… Hey, you could win a $1000 shopping spree just for joining in on the conversation.

Here’s a little bit of info about the Odwalla Smoothies for kids…

• The come in three great flavors…

• You can find them in your grocers refrigerated section with all of Odwalla products.
• They have one full serving of fruit in each little lunch box friendly box.
• They are gluten-free, dairy free with no added sugar.
• They are between 110-120 calories per serving so keep in mind, they aren’t a low calorie food.
• They contain 50% of your daily Vitamin C requirements in each box.

My kiddos love them and I love that I know exactly what they are putting into their bodies. They pack in lunch boxes easily and travel well with an ice pack. We’ve been using them a lot during the moving process, just to ensure the kiddos are getting their fruits and vitamin C while things are a little crazy around here.

Give them a try and come on over to the Goodness Grove and say hello. You never know… You may win $1000 if you do!!

Also, come share some challenges you have overcome in teaching your kids healthy habits for a chance to win at $200 gift card. Official Sweepstakes Rules.

Odwalla has asked me to be a Good Mom ambassador through BlogFrog. I am being compensated for my participation in the program but all opinions expressed in the post are my own and not those of Odwalla or The Coca-Cola Company.

I have never been a huge Halloween girl… Until this year! I am having so much fun coming up with some great projects to create for around the house!! With the move in full swing this project tested my crafting muscles and I have to say… I have fallen in LOVE with Mod Podge and their whole line of great products all over again!

With the process of moving, many of my favorite craft supplies have already been packed, but I learned a great lesson… you don’t need much to create some fun projects. Here’s my list of supplies…

• 2 plates
• 1 mason jar lid
• Basic printer paper
• Antique Matte Mod Podge
• Sparkle Mod Podge
• Mod Podge Dimensional Magic
• Halloween Chevron Mini Wooden Spoons from The TomKat Studio
• Insta Spooky Kit digital design kit from Rhonna Designs

For each of the three elements I printed the designs from the Insta Spooky Kit at Rhonna Designs on your plain old printer paper making sure they were sized just right for my plates and jar lid. What I love about he Antique Matte Mod Podge, is that it took the harsh white printer paper and created this lovely antique look.

I cut each image out and then spread a thin layer of the Antique Matte Mod Podge directly onto the plate or lid and then placed the paper onto the plate.  Making sure the image was placed correctly on the plate. Then I brushed another thin layer of the Mod Podge on top of the image and let dry. On the small white plate I added a layer of Sparkle Mod Podge to dress it up a bit.

Once the plate and lid were dry, I carefully added some Dimensional Magic to the Spooky image and the moon on the large plate.  This give the image a little pizzazz!!

 

Once everything was dry, I hot glued 5 of the spoon handles onto the back of the lid and then hot glued the lid to the small plate. That was it!! Super easy and it looks soooooo cute!! They are BEWITCHING, wouldn’t you say?

What’s your favorite Mod Podge product?  Are you planning on creating some fun Halloween décor this year? Come share, I would love to hear about what you’re working on!!
