THE NEW BIRDS AND BEES

A little boy goes to his father and asks "Daddy, how was I born?"
The father answers: "Well son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway!
Your mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your mom and we met at a cyber-cafe.
We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to download from my hard drive.
As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said: YOU GOT MALE!

ZEHN NATURALS REVIEW & GIVEAWAY (CLOSED)

I love organic tees. It is so hot here in Louisiana I live in my organic tees. Zehn Naturals sent me the Bee Kind Tee to review. I loved it and of course it's 100% organic.

The messages are gentle, yet bring awareness to causes that are near such as endangered animals, being green, peace and eating locally. I like graphic tees that spread the word about things that are important to me and Zehn Naturals original prints are perfect.

SUMMER TIME FUN FOR THE KIDS

I can't wait to tell you all the summer fun things we do in the summer, but first, may I ask you a favor regarding an upcoming review?

The gracious people at CSN Stores have offer me an Roadmaster 34" Steel Wagon to review. With 200 + stores, CSN carries everything from cookware to sofas

I was pretty excited about this offer because I have a little girl who loves to be outside playing with her two little friends. I remember when I was little I loved my little red wagon and pushing my dolls in it pretending it was the schoolbus. What fun my little girl will have now with this Roadmaster Steel Red Wagon.

But now, it's time for those Summer Fun Things we do in the Summer.

Many parents get apprehensive when summer vacation is coming up. They’ve had bad experiences before with their kids staying home and fighting all day long over the tiniest things. This doesn’t have to be your case. How many times have you listened to those “I’m so bored!” whiny complaints? If you take simple preventative steps you can plan out a fun summer vacation for everyone in your family!

Summer Activities In The Home

Play Games - Children of all ages love to play games. Consider having a family fun night once a week where everyone in the family plays games together. Make an evening of it by planning a special meal, perhaps having pizza delivered. Each week, let one child select the games that you’ll play. They can be board games, card games whichever game they feel like playing. There may be time to play more than one game. If you have enough people in your family, you may want to break into teams and play against each other. Having one parent per team is best. Have fun and enjoy each other.

Lots Of Fun Books - Getting lots of fun books to read together as a family is another idea. Go to a library and borrow lots of interesting books. Have a family reading night. Leave the books in places where the kids can easily access them.

Watching Movies - Watching movies that everyone in the family can enjoy is another fun activity you can do with your children. Have one person make a list of all the videos you would like to watch as a family, and then work your way through the list. Make some popcorn or a movie-themed snack, sit back, and enjoy yourselves.

Painting And Art - Kids are naturally creative. Buy some cool brushes and non toxic paint for them to do their own artwork at home. Big sheets of white paper will stimulate them to paint. They love it! For younger kids you can buy some of play dough sets and have them play with those. Just make sure you always put them in a closed recipient after you are done or else they will dry out.

Outdoor Summer Activities

Here are some places you can go over the summer:

Go To The Beach Or A Pool- Kids love to go swimming. Plan a day out with them. If you need to work then take your papers with you. Be sure to use clothespins and weights so things don’t fly away. That way you can multitask- watch them while getting things done. Make sure you are in a position where you can see them at all times. You can’t multitask like this though if your kids are very little. If they’re preschoolers or toddlers then you’ll need to give them your full attention when going to the beach or to a pool. One minute of distraction near the pool or beach can be very dangerous.

A Trip To The Zoo - Children love zoos. Being able to see all the different animals of the world is fun and educational. Check with a zoo nearby to see if they have discount days during the summer. Take the children to the zoo on that day. Another fun things to do is to give the kids some spending money to that they can purchase a souvenir. They always look forward to that.

Museum Day - Contrary to what many people think, museums are really fun. Science museums are especially fun because they have activities for the children to do for the various sections of the museum. If the museum that you are going to visit doesn’t have fun activities you can always plan fun activities according to theme of the museum. This may take a little more work but the kids will love it and be learning at the same time.

What do you do for SUMMER TIME FUN? Have A Great SUMMER Everyone!!! :o)

EDGAR MUELLER SUPER ARTIST

Street Artist's....New Creations

Mueller painted all day long from sunrise to sunset.
The picture appear on the East Pier in Dun Laoghaire, Ireland, as part of the town's Festival of World Cultures.

He spend five days, working 12 hours a day, to create the 250 square metre Image of the crevasse, which viewed from the correct angle, appears to be 3D. He then persuaded passers-by to complete the illusion by pretending the gaping hole was real.

He wanted to play with positives and negatives to encourage people to think twice about everything they see, 'he said. 'It was a very scary scene, but when people saw it they had great fun playing on it and pretending to fall into the eartth. 'I like to think that later, when they returned home, they might reflect more on what a frightening scenario it was and say, "Wow, that was actually pretty scary."

This guy is amazing no matter how you look at it!

ROSE BUDS AND HANGING BASKETS

The teenager tells her "Loosen Up Grams". These are modern times. You gotta let your rose buds show! And out she goes.

The next day the teenager comes down stairs, and the grandmother is sitting there with no top on. The teenager wants to die. She explains to her grandmother that she has friends coming over and that it is just not appropriate.

The grandmother says, "Loosen Up, Sweetie. If you can show off your rose buds, then I can display my hanging baskets!

ENDANGERED SPECIES CHOCOLATE REVIEW & GIVEAWAY (CLOSED)

I received a box of Endangered Species Chocolates to review and they were so good. Each chocolate bar wrapper has artwork of an at-risk species with educational information about the plight of that animal on the inside. Each bar is made with all-natural ingredients and ethically traded, shade-grown Ivorian cacao, which means it was grown under the natural canopy of forests in Ivory Coast by farmers earning a fair wage in humane working conditions.

They only buy cacao grown in the natural shade of rich, diverse forests. Choosing their chocolates is one way you can help support sustainable forest farmland and the species that flourish there.

There exquisite chocolate and colorful wrappers serve not only to increase awareness of species currently listed as threatened or endangered on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife's Endangered Species List, but to inspire proactive conservation for animals confronting universal struggles such as habitat encroachment, poaching, and pollution. Thier products aim to honor all flora and fauna that share this planet.

Endangered Species Chocolate (ESC) was founded in 1993 in effort to spread awareness and to make an impact on the growing number of plant and animal species that are disappearing from Earth.
