Yoplait Whips! Prize Pack Giveaway


Looking for a tasty treat to cool you down this summer? You won´t have to chase down the ice cream truck anymore because Yoplait Whips! can help you satisfy your summer cravings for something creamy and cold. 
The summer heat is no match for a frozen Yoplait Whips! yogurt - the same whipped yogurt that´s so unbelievably fluffy and light when enjoyed right from the refrigerator. Simply place your favorite Whips! yogurt cup in the freezer overnight and you will have a chilled yogurt indulgence without the calories of regular ice cream. So, this summer, before you head outside for fun in the sun, don´t forget to stock your freezer with Yoplait Whips! (We suggest removing the Yoplait Whips! from the freezer for 5-10 minutes before enjoying).

Yoplait Whips! yogurt is currently available in nine delectable flavors - Chocolate Mousse, Chocolate Raspberry, Key Lime Pie, Lemon Burst, Orange Créme, Peaches `N Cream, Raspberry Mousse, Strawberry Mist, and Vanilla Créme.

Summer in the South: Coco Bonbons Review & Giveaway

I love finding places that sell cute clothes for my kids! Right now I can still dress my boys the way I want, and I'm taking advantage of it. Pretty soon, they are going to be wanting to wear what all the 'cool' kids are wearing!

Coco Bonbons has the most adorable clothes for boys and girls! Sizes range from infant to child. Not only are the clothes super cute, but they are affordable as well!

For my review I received the boys' Lobster Print Swimsuit! It's made of 100% cotton and ties at the waist with mesh lining to keep it fitting comfortably. Since I've had it, there have been so many people saying how cute they are! My son loves the lobsters on them! He teases his little brother that the lobsters are going to get him! :) Boys will be boys!


I'm very pleased with Coco Bonbons! The shipping was really fast, and the quality of the product is wonderful! I would recommend them!


Check out the map for a location near you! Or, just order straight from the site! I'm sure once you start looking at the clothes, there WILL be something that you can't pass up!

His Name Was Bubba

His name was Bubba, he was from Mississippi..... And he needed a loan, so....... He walked into a bank in New York City and asked for the loan officer. He told the loan officer that he was going to Paris for an international redneck festival for two weeks and needed to borrow $5,000 and that he was not a depositor of the bank.

The bank officer told him that the bank would need some form of security for the loan, so the Redneck handed over the keys to a new Ferrari. The car was parked on the street in front of the bank. The Redneck produced the title and everything checked out. The loan officer agreed to hold the car as collateral for the loan and apologized for having to charge 12% interest.

Later, the bank's president and its officers all enjoyed a good laugh at the Redneck from the south for using a $250,000 Ferrari as collateral for a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drove the Ferrari into the bank's private underground garage and parked it.

Two weeks later, the Redneck returned, repaid the $5,000 and the interest of $23.07. The loan officer said, "Sir, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out on Dunn & Bradstreet and found that you are a Distinguished Alumni from Ole Miss University, a highly sophisticated investor and Multi-Millionaire with real estate and financial interests all over the world. Your investments include a large number of wind turbines around Sweetwater, Texas. What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"

The good 'ole boy replied, "Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $23.07 and expect it to be there when I return?"

His name was BUBBA....

Neutrogena UltraSheer® Liquid Sunblock Review

I have really enjoyed using this product! I have very fair skin. Not to mention the freckles! I know skin cancer is not too far in the future! Usually when buying sunscreen for my face, it's a pain. I have sensative skin and will break out in a rash depending on the sunscreen. I love this product because it's 70spf! That is a MUST for me! I've worn it quite a few times being out in the sun all day. Not once did I get burned on my face! Also, it didn't bother my skin at all! I also like that you can wear it under your makeup! It also has a nice smell. It didn't reak of sunscreen! I didn't find one thing to complain about! I will continue to use Neutrogena UltraSheer® Liquid Sunblock!
