#KmartOutdoor Living Twitter Party

kmart outdoor living twitter party 150x150 #KmartOutdoor Living Twitter PartyI recently wrote about our bucket list for our yard. There’s a ton of work we’d like to do on top of what we’ve already done.  That’s why I am excited to tell you about Kmart’s Outdoor Living Twitter Party.  My current patio set we bought at Kmart, so I know the selection and choices you have there.  Last summer, we busted an umbrellas (thanks storms!) and picked up a replacement umbrella at Kmart for this summer season.  Several bloggers have redone their backyards, so I’ll let them tell you how great Kmart’s outdoor products are: Sheena, Katja, Crissy, Courtney and Allison.

On Thursday, May 12th (yes, that’s this Thursday!) from 9 – 10 EST, there will be an awesome Kmart Outdoor party.  This twitter party’s focus will be sharing outdoor living ideas and getting backyard entertaining tips from lifestyle and party-planning experts.  (My advice is to take in your umbrella even when it’s closed when it’s suppose to storm.  Trust me on that one!).  The hashtag for this party is #KmartOutdoor and you can win $50 and  $100 Kmart gift cards during the party!

I’ll be there!  Will you?  (If you plan on attending, please RSVP!)

Disclosure: This post is part of a compensated campaign for Kmart and Collective Bias.

Starting my weight loss journey

Okay, I am putting myself on a diet.  Ok, not quite a diet.  It is a new product called Sensa.  I’ll be honest — I’d love to lose about a hundred pounds.  However, at this point, I would like any sort of weight loss.  My goal is to do an update post each week.  If I don’t, somebody clock me upside my head and remind me.  Sensa is a product that allows you to eat whatever you want.  However, it helps with your portion control.  All you do is shake a some of the Sensa on your food everytime you eat, and it does it’s magic.

I weighed myself this morning, so I know my starting weight (no, I am not listing it here) and I took some pictures (well, my mom was here and took them):

So I guess we can call these the “before” pictures.  I’ve watched the DVD that came with the Sensa, and it said that some women don’t see a change until 3 months into this.  I hope that isn’t me.  I am all for instant results.  The first thing I have noticed is that the Sensa makes my food taste better.  Now, I plan on mostly keeping to my normal lifestyle, and we will see if this works for me.  If you’d like to join me on this journey, use ROCKETXL to get 15% off your order (no minimum order either) and you’ll get free shipping too.

Crib

We went and ordered our new crib today. We decided that we really need to get one up right away for Madison’s sake. Here’s what we ordered:

The crib should be here in about 7 – 14 days and then Bill can get it together. I am so excited. It is a Babi Italia crib. We ordered the Tea Stain one (which is the color in the first pic)
