$50 Gift Card Giveaway!

It's time again for another give away from CSN stores. They have generously agreed to give on of my readers a $50 gift certificate to one of their 200+ stores online!

You could pick from wall sconces or toys or furniture. You can put it towards a larger purchase if you want.
I think I would pick a mandolin slicer, or a nice outdoor planter, or maybe another toy for my kids. Last time I was able to give away a Bilibo Play Shell from CSN. My kids still love it.

What will you choose?

Want to join the Fit Kid Challenge?

 

The Cardon’s Children Hospital is hosting  Fit Kid Challenge this summer.  This past Saturday was their kickoff event.  We had fruit and bagels for breakfast.  Hickman eggs gave away hard boiled eggs on a stick that were a big hit with my kids.  There were booths with games for everyone, a truck with Wii games for up to 16 people, and other activities. We couldn’t pry Lily away from the hula hoops.   Everyone received a water bottle, a jump rope and a pedometer.  Ashley has been wearing his pedometer everywhere.  They came home and played with their new jump ropes.  Anyone (any-kid) can sign up for the Fit Kid Challenge online.  It consists of choosing from a variety of healthful activities for 4 weeks.  When you finish, send in your results for prizes.  We can definitely use a little help around here to be more active and healthy.
