Mother's Day coming up

I haven't written a lot on my blog lately, life is keeping me too busy to write on a regular basis. It seems to get busier now that the kids are getting older.
I do make exceptions on posting certain things and this one is definitely one of them.
Mother's day is right around the corner and if you're not sure what to get your mom, have a look at the following company. I was lucky enough to order something to use for my review.
Have you ever heard about Shari's Berries?

Let me show you some images of some of the yummy things they have on the site:

We ordered the dozen of strawberries and 3 mini cheese cakes. All I can say is that I had to be super fast to have a strawberry as my kids LOVED them a lot. The cheesecakes were amazing!

I can hear some of you thinking, what is so special about a chocolate covered strawberry? Well, let me show you, I took a picture of a strawberry I had in my fridge, and then compared it to one of Shari's Berries. Amazing, right?

Have a look around at all of the selections, there is way more than I am showing you! Check out these coupons you can use: COUPONS

Happy ordering for Mother's Day!

"Disclaimer: I was send a coupon code to order my selection from Shari's Berries to use for this review. All opinions are mine (and my kids as they gobbled most of the strawberries). I was in no other way compensated to write this post"

Merry Christmas and a fantastic 2013 from my family to yours!

Red Envelope gifts

Are you still at a loss on what to get for your spouse, friends,...? There still is time to get your items before the holidays! Another great site to look at is Red Envelope!

I really love the family tree art and the deluxe wall gallery frame!

If you are looking for some jewelry for your wife, mom, girlfriend...look no further. Here are some examples but there is way more available on the site!

If you love to entertain, what about the following gifts?

I had the great opportunity to order a gift from this site, ordering is really simple, and the Item got here safe and fast. I ordered the culinary herb growing kit, we will grow the herbs with the kids next year. It will look amazing in our kitchen!

Amy Michelle's Holiday 2012 - Let it snow

Pro Flowers review

With Thanksgiving in the past, are you also looking forward to the holidays? This is my favorite time of the year, we decorated the house last weekend, apart from the tree, we will get that one this weekend.
Abby my youngest said she wants the same tree as in the movie "Christmas Vacation", with squirrel and all! She cracks me up!

I've been shopping for presents online for a while now, always looking for the best deals. Otherwise, with 3 kids, it gets expensive very fast.
Have you seen the site Pro Flowers already?

They don't just have flowers you know, they have a Christmas section too!
If you are looking for great gift baskets for family and/or friends, you should check the site out.
Look at some images, don't they just look fantastic?

 The below Merry Merlot gift set would make a great gift for my husband who loves wine and adores chocolate!

If you're running out of ideas what to get, have a look at Pro Flowers, there are even sale Items on there!

I ordered a wreath for my front door, and not only does it look great, it smells fantastic! Made from real flowers and herbs. I could not believe the care Pro Flowers used to get me this basket in one piece: big box and the wreath was secured in it so it couldn't move around at all! Will keep using this box to keep my wreath in perfect condition for years to come.

Personal Creations Review

Unbelievable, it's almost Halloween and before we know it, it will be Christmas again! Many of you are already on the look-out for great deals and/or good ideas for the Holidays and I want to share a website you should check out. It's called Personal Creations and on this site you will find gifts for about  every occasion. Personal Creations is a leading e-commerce retailer. They are best known for specializing in gifting, and offers consumers a wide variety of products and options.
If you are looking for something for Christmas, Halloween, birthdays, gifts for him and her, home items, weddings,...then this is the place for you to go and have a look.

Here are some examples of gifts, always more fun to look at pictures:

I will be ordering some of these Teacher mugs for the end of year presents for the teachers.
And look at these gifts for the holidays!

I had the great opportunity to check out Personal Creations and order something I would love. It was really hard to choose something as there is so much to choose from but I always wanted to order one of these but never did before. How cool is this frame?

I ordered it with the letters in our last name. 

Ordering was so easy and I could not believe the way it was packed, no way this frame was going to break!

The family LOVES this and we have it on the wall for everyone to see!

Fresh Produce Clothes review

I can not believe it's been so long since I have been on my blog! Lots has happened but I will tell those stories in my next post. Today I wanted to share with you a company I LOVE!
I'm sure you've heard about them: Fresh Produce.

As you know I've lost a lot of weight, I'm now at 60 pounds down and when I got the opportunity to review one of their Items I couldn't wait to order a casual dress for the Summer!

I chose the Impromptu Dress in Fiji for my review and let me tell you, it's amazing! The dress has an asymmetrical hem, and just fits very comfortable. I chose my dress in white, perfect for the Summer. The dress is made from 92% rayon, 8% lycra and after a lot of washes already is still in the same beautiful and comfortable shape.

Left is the dress on a model, right on me in my garden.

This dress is now also on sale!
What I love about Fresh Produce is their great quality, affordability, lots of color variations and there's a size for everybody!
Check out some of their vacation clothes or some more of their dresses.
I have my eyes on this High Shore Wrap Dress:

If you are already looking around for clothes for the Fall, they have a great selection of sweaters, cardigans, jackets and pants too.

Thanks Fresh Produce for letting me review this dress, it's one of my favorites!

Friends with Kids screening

I had never been to a screening of a movie before so when I was asked if I wanted to go, I didn't hesitate.

My friend and me went to see "Friends with Kids". The release date of the movie was March 9th and all I can say is, go watch this movie. It's hilarious! Especially when you are married and/or have kids, then this movie will make you laugh out loud! There's so many similarities in this movie, things that we have experienced.

It's been a long time where I went to see a movie where the whole theatre was laughing out loud.

I can't wait for it to come out on DVD as I want to watch it with the hubby too!

Have a look at the trailer:

Synopsis:

Friends With Kids is a daring and poignant ensemble comedy about a close-knit circle of friends at that moment in life when children arrive and everything changes. The last two singles in the group observe the effect that kids have had on their friends' relationships and wonder if there’s a better way. They decide to have a kid together - and date other people.

Jennifer Westfeldt wrote, directed, and stars in the romantic comedy Friends with Kids. She plays Julie, a Manhattanite whose biological clock is about to run out, so she convinces her longtime platonic best friend, Jason (Adam Scott) to father a child with her. They seem to have a much easier time juggling the responsibilities of new parenthood without the complication of being in a relationship with each other, which is in contrast to the two couples they are closest to. As their friends' marriages implode, Julie and Jason's happy equilibrium topples over as well when he falls for a hot young artist (Megan Fox) and she begins dating a successful businessman (Edward Burns).

There are big laughs and unexpected emotional truths as this unconventional 'experiment' leads everyone in the group to question the nature of friendship, family and, finally, true love.

Friends With Kids stars Adam Scott ("Parks and Recreation"), Jennifer Westfeldt, Jon Hamm, Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Chris O'Dowd, Megan Fox and Edward Burns.

Written and directed by Jennifer Westfeldt (Kissing Jessica Stein).

Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions will release Friends With Kids on March 9, 2012.

Go see the movie if you're in need of a good laugh!
