Electrolux and Global Green USA
Do you have a front load washer and dryer? I do, and I absolutely don’t know how I lived without them. A front load washer is worth every cent. I am able to wash a larger load and they clothes come out practically dry! It uses less water and less electricity too! Now, Electrolux and Kelly Ripa have teamed up together to offer you a new shade – Kelly Green. This is a limited edition washer and dryer. To quote Kelly:
I love green … the color green and the act of living green,” said Ripa. “What better place to make a simple, every day difference than in the laundry room? Kelly Green is a gorgeous shade, and just by using the new Electrolux high-efficiency washer and dryer you can save energy and use less water. How green is that?
In conjunction with the Kelly Green washer and dryer, Electrolux is also kicking off their virtual flower garden campaign. They are raising funds for Global Green USA and will donate $1 for every virtual flower planted. Also, everyone who plants a virtual flower will automatically be entered to win one of these new Kelly Green front load washer and dryer. Also, Mom Central will also be giving away one too! (I know I am just full of goodies in this post!) To enter, simply go to http://www.momcentral.com/blogs/win-a-kelly-green-electrolux-washer-a-dryer.html and (1) tell us which flower you planted on the Electrolux site and (2) share your own “laundry tips” for saving time and energy. Mom Central will pick one lucky winner in a random drawing from all entries received!

Hell Froze Over aka Why I Love My Hubby

I know, interesting title. But see, you have to know what the last week was like in my house. Last weekend we were gone to a wedding. All week, the earliest my hubby came home from work was 7 pm. Needless to say, the house was a wreck. On top of all that, I was changing hosting due to many issues with Bluehost (which I will blog about later!).
Hell froze over because well, the hubby actually got it into his head that we needed to clean the house. Not only that, he helped. We went from room to room and actually cleaned the majority of the house. He actually got on his hands and knees and cleaned the tub. He used an old toothbrush to clean the jets on the whirlpool. That’s what a good job he did. We rearranged the living room again too! After the kids went to bed last night, he also went grocery shopping and managed to spend less than $200 too! (However, some of his choices were not so good so I’ll be going back, but I am not complaining.)
It feels good to have a semiproductive weekend. This afternoon we will be going to one of his friend’s house for a little party, and I am not sure what we have in store for tomorrow.

Swimming
We went to my inlaws last night to see how Will and Madison were going to do in the pool. This year we decided to give Madison water wings, and she did awesome! To be honest, she did 100 times better than I thought she would. Will wasn’t thrilled with being in the water, but did stay in for quite a while. I was happy that Bill had it handled and I didn’t have to get into my suit. We have a party to go to on Saturday, so I’m glad to know the kids will be comfortable playing in their pool.
