allPopart – Back to School

Unique.  Attention Grabber.  Conversation Piece. Work of Art.

allPopart is all of these things.  They take your photo and turn it into a master piece.  We just love the one that they did of our daughter and we get compliments on it ALL of the time. 

There are tons of styles, sizes, layouts, colors, and more from which to choose!  allPopart certainly has something for everyone.  

The process of ordering from allPopart is really simple.  You simple select the style and layout that you want including choosing the matting, material, size, etc.    You upload, email or mail them the picture that you would like to use.  (You can even give them more than one if you want their opinion.)  If you want something specific done with your pictures just ask.  I had them keep my baby’s eyes blue in all four shots (they are one of our favorite features of her!) and asked for the background colors to be girly.     After submitting your order, you will get an email in a few days with your proofs  (I was sent three).  You can request any more changes or keep one of them exactly as shown.  I opted to have a few changes done and was sent another set of proofs.

It is then shipped to your house for free (in the USA)!   I couldn’t believe how well packaged it was.  Tissue paper, bubble wrap, shrink wrap, etc.  Pretty much damage proof!    And oooh, sooo beautiful!

So as your kids bring you home countless pieces of artwork this school year, indulge yourself and bring home a master piece of your own.*    Or turn one of their pictures into one of these!

*Okay, so you didn’t make it yourself, but you chose the perfect picture, reviewed and perhaps asked for changes to the proofs and found the PERFECT spot to hang it.

Win It!
Go to allPopart and tell me what you would buy with the $50 gift certificate that they are offering to one of our lucky readers.

Seagate – Back to School

Have you ever had your computer crash? Everything you saved onto your computer is GONE?
Pictures, Files, Documents, ect. Perhaps some school files that you needed for Monday’s homework!
If you’re anything like me you’ve lost a number of things because you didn’t back up your system.  I have such a hard time remembering to back up to a CD.
The Seagate FreeAgent Go is an awesome product!  Well, it’s beyond awesome if you want to know my personal opinion!
I don’t have to worry about losing any of my work, pictures, or just whatever I have on my computer.
The FreeAgent Go backs up all of my files and protects them!  So if I were to ever have a crash, it’s simple to pop in Free Agent Go and I will have all my files restored.
Want to know the best part?  Well, besides being able to keep your files, ect.  It’s that it is SIMPLE to use!
You plug it in and GO!

Oreck – Back to School

With the back to school theme we’re going for, I wanted to offer something to moms…To help make the transition with our kids going back to school a little easier and maybe a little more enjoyable!
I have been in envy of Oreck for quite awhile now. I always wanted one!
When I was able to review an Oreck vacuum you could see the excitement in my face!
Weird how something to clean with makes a girl excited lol.
I was able to get my hands on this beauty;
The New Oreck XL^® Gold
Power Team.

Awesome cleaning power and advanced bacteria-fighting technology for a cleaner, healthier home.

Not only is the vacuum just about the best I’ve ever used, but the attachment is awesome too! Great for corners and stairs!

With Direct Suction, the New Oreck XL produces 102 mph air flow, yet weighs only 9lbs. Direct suction design delivers dirt in a straight, efficient path right to the vacuum bag. But most bagless vacs move dirt through a convoluted maze of tubing, which requires a larger motor. The Oreck’s smaller, more energy efficient motor uses 1/3 the electricity of virtually any other vacuum motor.

Super light but all the suction one could possibly need or want!

The Oreck 5-lb. Deluxe Handheld Vac, with eight attachments, tackles above-the-floor jobs – cleaning everything from upholstery to high ceilings, corners to crevices, and books shelves to lampshades.

To say this vacuum is the bomb is an understatement.  It’s super light and really tough on the suction.

I love that I can take the little hand held and go up the stairs without having to try to tote a huge vacuum.  This lets me get to every nook and cranny and get a safe and effective cleaning done.
The New Oreck XL^® Gold is not bagless…However, it does hold 3 times as much as a regular bagged vacuum cleaner.  Plus the great news is even with it full it’s still very light weight!

Oreck offers so many great products for the health and safety of our children & others!

• Oreck XL Upright Vacuums
• NEW! Oreck Halo
  Germ-Killing UV-C Vacuum
• NEW! Oreck Steam-It™
  all-purpose steamwand
• Canister Vacuum Cleaners
• Floor Machines
• Air Purifiers
• Small Appliances
• Accessories & Supplies
• Vacuum Bags & Belts
• Cleaning Products
• NEW! Allergy-Control
  Bedding
• Pet Care Solutions
• Outlet Store

With so many products to choose from Oreck, it’s hard to just walk away!
With a son who has severe asthma it is very important for me to have a clean and healthy home for him!

Oreck wants to make a mothers life a little easier with school coming up in session again!
They would love to offer one Barefoot Mommies reader a chance to win The New Oreck XL^® Gold.
Which is a $499.95 value!

Win It!
Go to Oreck and tell me which other Vacuum from Oreck’s new line Oreck XL Power Team you would love to have!
(There is a total of 4 vacuums to pick from, which one fits YOUR needs!)

ID On Me – Back to School

As some of you may know my husband is a type 1 diabetic and my son has severe asthma.
I have found a great site for both of them with wearing an ID.
It’s called ID On Me.

It’s very simple and easy to wear. My son has his on and since we’ve gotten it, he hasn’t taken it off once. Both my husband and son received the Medical bracelet for them to review.
My husband HATES wearing things that says he is a diabetic, but this is cool enough and manly enough for him to actually wear it to work where I get worried the most of low blood sugars.
It’s simple…The ID Bracelets and Medical Bracelets come with a small piece of paper that can be folded up and put into the bracelet.
See image below;

It is water resistant. My son has been swimming and bathing with it on and the little piece of paper inside is dry as can be!

The bracelet compartment ends are slotted to allow removal and replacement of the adjustable strap.

The Standard Wristband will fit a wrist circumference of approximately 4 1/2″ to 7 “.

The optional XL Wristband will fit a wrist or ankle circumference of approximately 6 1/2″ to 11″.

Not only is this great for people with medical problems, but it’s also great as an ID if something WERE to happen. I am so cautious when it comes to my kids, (Yes I am one of THOSE moms) but anymore, now-a-days you kind of have to be! You never know what could happen and when it could happen;

* 1,315,600 children were missing from their caregivers during 1999 (OJJDP, 2002). That is over 3600 missing children every day, one every 24 seconds. Of these, 797,500 were reported missing to the police or other agencies, and 198,000 were lost or injured.

* Every day, more than 39,000 children are injured seriously enough to require medical treatment, more than 14 million children each year (National SAFE KIDS Campaign, 2002).

* During the year 2000, 387,000 bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages were injured in accidents, 129,000 of them traffic related (USDOT/FHWA, 2003).

There are no guarantees of safety these days, but ID On Me gives you the power to know about emergencies immediately.

* Children are often in carpools, at the park or beach, riding bicycles, and visiting friends or relatives.

* Teens and adults spend more time on busy roads commuting to school and work and managing family needs.

* Adults participate in an increasing number of outdoor sports and events, including running, cycling, hiking, and other recreational activities.

* Participation in these activities often makes it inconvenient to carry traditional identification.

* Seniors and their families may feel more secure with critical medical and contact information conveniently at hand.

* In a stressful situation, the ability to remember and communicate critical information may be difficult or impossible.

* Even when a lost child or injured adult is identified, contacting family members can be a slow and difficult process.

* In an emergency, ID On Me will be easily recognizable to law enforcement and medical personnel, ensuring that you are notified quickly if your loved one is lost or hurt.

* This stylish and comfortable bracelet contains vital medical data and all information necessary to contact family members. Critical medical decisions can be made without delay.

It just makes sense!
It’s better to be safe, than sorry!
You can even put the ID tag, or medical tag on your child’s shoe!

They come in many colors for anyone!
Something to fit everyone’s needs.

ID On Me would like to offer TWO Barefoot Mommies reader a chance to win!
One winner will get the medical bracelet and one winner with get an ID bracelet.

Win it!
Go to ID On Me and tell me which color you like best!
ALSO – Tell me which one YOU would want, the Medical or the ID.
*BOTH required*

Extra’s!

  Marie Callenders….YUMMY! 8/4

  July 21, 2009 by Krissy  
  Filed under Giveaways, Reviews and Giveaways

  40 Comments

  

  When I lived in California we had a Marie Callender’s that we visited often, especially to get some fresh pie! I am sad they don’t have Marie Callender’s here in Arkansas.
  I am however loving the Marie Callender’s pies they have in your grocery freezer
  Oh yes! You don’t have to miss out on the awesome pies from Marie Callender’s!
  I was sent 2 pies to review.
  The Cherry pie,
  
  AND OMGosh…
  The delicious chocolate cream pie…Holy Moly!
  To say I HEART Marie Callender’s Cherry Pie came out of the oven nice and crispy and So mouth watering GOOD!
  These are by far my favorites!

  Our story begins over 50 years ago, in 1948, when Marie Callender first baked pies for local restaurants. Baking from scratch, Marie used only the finest ingredients and put such love and care into each and every pie that people took notice. Before long, Marie began offering her good home cooking and legendary pies at a restaurant of her own. The word spread and soon Marie Callender restaurants were opened all across the West. We’ve been warming hearts and tummies with our famous recipies ever since.

  Now you can enjoy the warmth and goodness of Marie’s freshly baked pies at home with our frozen bake and serve pies based on Marie’s original recipes.

  I have 2 coupons to give away to 2 Barefoot Mommies readers.
  The coupon will get you one free Marie Callender’s Fruit Pie, Pie Shell, Cream Pie or 2lb Cobbler.

  Win It;

  Go to Marie Callender’s and tell me which one you would try if you won the gift certificate.

    Pocket Dots – Keep Those Pants up! 8/3

    July 20, 2009 by Krissy  
    Filed under Giveaways, Reviews, Reviews and Giveaways

    Have you ever noticed that when you’re pregnant it is hard as heck to keep your pants up?
    
    Do you still want to wear your prematernity pants but when you bend over your backside shows? Shirt just isn’t doing the trick anymore!
    
    This is where Pocket Dots come in!
    
    VERY inventive!
    
    
    
    Well since I’m not pregnant I do have a daughter who’s pants are always seeming to fall down!
    
    She can’t wear them like ‘women’ wear them, they have to be below her stomach, I guess we can wear them like that too but lol…She HAS to have hip huggers because she can’t stand anything on her stomach. So when Annie contacted me to review Pocket Dots of course I said YES! I thought this would be the perfect solution! It was! I mean they actually work!
    
    

    Open one side of the clip by lifting the colored disc.

    Position the clip on your maternity band and push the disc back down to close.

    

    Open the other side of the clip and attach to the outer edge of your back pocket.

    Repeat to attach the second clip to your other back pocket.

    

    I came up with the idea of Pocket Dots when I was pregnant with my son Elliott. When my bump started to show, I knew it was time to do some shopping… but the stylish maternity jeans were way too expensive and the others were just plain unattractive!

    One of my friends told me about the maternity bands that allow you to wear your normal pants. I bought one and loved the freedom of wearing all of my pants, but there was one big problem… my pants didn’t stay up!

    I was always struggling to keep the band around the back of my pants, especially when I sat down and stood up again. I thought I was alone in my struggle until I mentioned it to some other moms; they all said the same thing—the band never stayed in place in the back. So I created Pocket Dots and wanted to share them with everyone!

    Every review I’ve seen with the Pocket Dots are about pregnant women.
    
    But I have to say that these not only work for pregnant women, they work for people who can’t keep their pants up too lol.

    Annie owner of Pocket Dots wants to offer one Barefoot Mommies reader a chance to win a set of Pocket Dots of their own to try out!

    How to Enter;
    
    Tell us what you think! What
    

    colors or patterns you like to see for Pocket Dots in the future?

      Superior Wedding Bands-Tungsten

      1 Comment

      Superior Wedding Bands can fill your Wedding Band needs, with a large selection of styles to fit you. Superior Wedding Rings offers two types of engraving to personalize your ring.

      Tungsten Superior Wedding Rings are the first choice for strong top quality, scratch resistant,and beautiful wedding rings.

      Comfort Fit 14K Two Toned 6mm White Yellow Gold Wedding Ring

      Ceramic 8mm Inlay Wedding Ring
      

      14K White Gold 6mm .1crt Princess Cut Diamond Satin Finish Ring
      

      Tungsten alone is a very dense and fragile metal. When tungsten is combined with carbon alloys at over 6,000 degrees Fahrenheit, Tungsten Carbide (TC) is formed- one of the hardest metals known to mankind.

      Here are some interesting facts that will put into perspective the quality of Tungsten Carbide- Tungsten Carbide is approximately ten times harder than 14K gold, and four times harder than platinum!

        Michael Bublé Meets Madison Square Garden Review and Giveaway 7/31

        July 17, 2009 by SaraM  
        Filed under Giveaways, Reviews and Giveaways

        Leave a Comment

        Following his first #1 Pop album and his third platinum-plus disc, 2007’s Grammy® winning Call Me Irresponsible, singing sensation Michael Bublé returns to the stage with the live CD+DVD package Michael Bublé Meets Madison Square Garden. Featuring powerful performances of his hits ‘Everything,’ ‘Home’ and ‘Feeling Good,’ he brings the December 2008 concert at one of the most famous venues in entertainment history home to fans with Michael Bublé Meets Madison Square Garden.

        Ahh!  The soothing sound of Michael Buble.  I just love his music, the jazzy band, and the trumpets ~ they get me every time!  I just want to get up and dance with my husband, my baby, or myself if that is the case!  Or if I’m feeling a bit tired or stressed, it is just the right music to kick back with a class of wine (or grape juice for us expectant mothers) and relax.  I can’t think of a more perfect night at home then a bit of dancing then a bit of sitting with my feet up, all accompanied by Mr. Buble’s wonderful voice!!

        The set comes with CD and DVD.  The DVD is very personal.  It has some of everything; insight into Michael’s view on his job, you get to meet his family and some crew members, see a lot of behind the scenes stuff, learn about his upstart and watch parts of his wonderful concert at Madison Square Garden.  It is very personal; you truly feel like you are sitting around (or rather following) talking with him.  His humor, personality, and passion for his work really comes through.
        
        Watch a clip and see for yourself!   
        WARNING:  There are some inappropriate parts for children, so you may want to watch the DVD after they head to bed.
        Buy It!
