The Ant-Man Film is More Important Than You Think

The Ant-Man Film is More Important Than You Think

The new Ant-Man film will be in theaters July 17, 2015. It looks to be yet another amazing offering from Marvel Studios. It's also an important film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. You may not realize it, but the Ant-Man film is about more than just entertainment. I'm going to give you a glimpse in to why the Ant-Man film is an important cog in the Marvel machine. In The Beginning There was Marvel comics. The greatest super heroes of all time have come from the mind of Stan Lee. He has given us such memorable characters as Spider-Man, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, and Captain America. For a long time, Marvel was strictly about the comics, and rather than making their own films, they...

LG Wants To Make Your Game Day A Success

Disclosure: Post sponsored by Lunchbox but all opinions are my own. Please see below for additional disclosure Fall is not just about the holidays in our house, it's also about Football!  My husband enjoys watching college football as much as any other game.  The colleges we went to don't have football teams so we aren't very partial to a team, but we have a few favorites - Notre Dame and Ole Miss. And if you are going to watch football, you really need a nice TV because if you've ever watched football on a nice HD TV, then you won't want to go backwards because the quality is amazing.   The colors between the team uniforms, the cheerleader uniforms and then the green from the AstroTurf...

Colgate House Party and Lunch with Friends

Colgate House Party and Lunch with Friends

This post is Sponsored by Colgate but my opinions are 100% my own! As a Colgate Healthy Living Ambassador, I was given the opportunity to host an in-house party with some friends and share with them some of the great products that Colgate has to offer.  We are a Colgate family and use this brand 90% of the time.  I've used Colgate since I was a kid and I've always been happy with the results that we get.  Of course if I could get my kids to brush their teeth as often as they are supposed to, then they'd work even better.  It's a struggle that I am slowly winning! Colgate makes products for the entire family.  They have toothbrushes that are the perfect size for little mouths along with...

It's crazy how this turns into such a shopping season but we just can't avoid it.  If you can, than that's awesome but most of us can't.  Nor do I want to. I enjoy picking out presents for our close family and friends.   I look at it as a time of the year to show everyone how much you appreciate them, but giving them something to make them happy, and perhaps put a smile to their face.  To give them something to show you care and that you are thinking of them.  It's a time of the year to make people happy and presents, whether big or small, will do that...
