Teaching you Child how to take good Pictures -Let @NatGeo new Book help you #Review

**WARNING this post is about photography MAY WILL contain an OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT OF EYE-CATCHING  PICTURES**   =^D

In middle school many moons ago a teacher handed me a Eastman Kodak

I was hooked...taking what few classes our school offered in photography.

I wanted to learn as much as I could about how to get the best shot...learning how  to be creative with shutter speed using the photographic paper  in the darkroom and what effects could be done in different washing's.

 I remember at a teen getting my first Polaroid--the instant 

gratification of seeing your shot-80's  version of Instagram!

SO MUCH has changed now; so many great advancements in photography.  Everyone from Grandpa to tiny tot's can carry some device with a camera with them anywhere! Well National Geographic  is just the company to team children's author and a legendary photographer together to make a great guide for kids  learning to taking super photos. Annie Griffiths and Nancy Honovich collaborate to bring National Geographic Kids Guide to Photography:Tips & Tricks on How to Be a Great Photographer From the Pros & Your Pals at My Shot (National Geographic Children's Book; out Aug 4,2015 ages 8-12)

This is an easy to understand ....up-to-date guide on photography and photo equipment from a smartphone to  a point and shoot camera. There are awesome pointers presented in a kid friendly format and the book is PACKED with information on how to take photos of many different subjects -people, animals, sports, landscape and even underwater! 

My Son was eager to get out and put some of what he read to the test. We planed a day at a local park that has an abundance of great subjects for photo opportunities. 

As most of the time I'm the one behind the camera he snapped a pretty good shot of me too.

When we got back home he played around with a few editing tools and gave his photos a more polished and professional look. Makes a Mama PROUD =^D

Young photographers are also invited to share their skills online at the National Geographic Kids MY SHOT COMMUNITY moderated online community , kids can safely share their photos and take challenges from National Geographic editors. I know my Son was eager to join the site and share a few of the photos he took. He liked the different challenges and cannot wait to get out for another fun photo taking session.

OxyRub Pain Relief Cream #Review

About the product 

OxyRub works within minutes to:

- Dissolve arthritis pain in knees, hips, fingers, and wrists
- Relieve tense, painful back, leg, and neck muscles
- Cool and soothe stubborn bursitis pain
- Take the throbs out of bumps, sprains, and bruises


Pain is the single most common reason that patients seek medical care—and yet, there have been shockingly few truly effective solutions. NOT ANYMORE. Now, not even the worst chronic pain can stand up to the pain-relieving power of OxyRub. Whether you've been fighting arthritis pain for ages or just suffer from aches and pains after a round of golf or an afternoon in the garden, OxyRub pain relief cream can eliminate your pain—quickly



I've been having some medical drama and one of the biggest thing I need to do is "MOVE" more--I put off any form of exercise because I've got horrible pain in my knee and shoulders. Now I can rum some  OxyRub on before I start working out and after--NO EXCUSE NOW!!!  

There are three points I like
about this cream

1 HOW FAST I GET RELIEF
2 Reasonable price
3 fresh citrus scent


You can find it on Amazon   or on Healthy Directions website directly. You can get 20% off your first bottle using the code SAVEOXY2

Let products straight from MOTHER EARTH Protect your skin this Summer #mygreenfills #sunscreen #bugrepellent

It is a double-edged sword: you try to find products to protect your family from the sun’s harmful rays and bothersome bugs, yet it seems most products on the market are loaded with harsh, toxic chemicals you’d NEVER want on your skin, let alone your family’s. 

 Not to worry!  This summer Selestial’s MyGreenFills.com leads the way in safe solutions for your family with products that WORK!

Protect-Non-Toxic Sunscreen:  This 30+ broad spectrum formula has the  UV protecting ingredients that come straight from the  earth.

  This lightweight, non-greasy formula moisturizes as it protects and is perfect for the whole family.




I’ll Fly Away- Non-Toxic Bug Repellent:  Keep bugs at bay without harsh chemicals or the stink of synthetic spray. This DEET-free formula with a most pleasant smell of eucalyptus, tea tree, and citronella also it's infused with aloe vera to keep skin soft. 

 Bugs hate it, people love it! 



Protect Extreme Non-Toxic Sunscreen and Bug Repellent Combo:  Protect yourself from bugs and the sun with Protect Extreme. They have taken the proven bug repelling power of I’ll Fly Away with the sun-blocking effectiveness of Protect in one convenient bottle! The lotion goes on smooth and last for a few hours-- for best results reapply after swimming.

My Hubby and kids put the sunscreen and bug repellent combo to the test Cherry and Blueberry picking this past weekend. NOT a bite or burn among them and a little bit went a LONG way!

Herbal Air Natural Odor Eliminator #Review & #Giveaway. WINNER!!!

If you know it or not, your house and car  have a unique smell.

It can range from a light, fresh scent all the way to a musty, sweaty soccer uniform smell.The unfortunate part is, you get so used to this smell that you don’t even recognize.

But, other people notice!!!

The folks at  The Healing Tree, LLC have come up with Herbal Air Natural Odor Eliminator combines liquid herbal extracts with essential oils that are 100% safe

 for you and your family to breathe. With just one or two sprays, it quickly

 absorbs foul odors to create a refreshing environment without the use of

 harmful chemicals or artificial fragrances which might contain toxins or 

allergens. 

Most air fresheners are very toxic and make your house inaccessible for people with asthma and chemical sensitivities.  The chemical fragrances often stay on your clothes, skin and hair even after you leave your home.  With our 100% all natural odor eliminator you won’t add more toxins in the air. Our odor eliminator actually breaks down and removes the odor causing molecules, which completely eliminates unpleasant smells and leaves you with a clean and fresh scent.

Thanks to The Healing Tree, LLC one RSR reader will WIN a free bottle to try out at 
home!


WINNER is Amy Tolley!!!!

SUMMER SNACK - Certified gluten-free, vegan, & Kosher and taste GREAT! #glutenfree #bites @thegfb

Moms are always on the GO! The Summer months there really isn't a day on the calendar  that is not  full of running kids here and there-- a light day might be a trip to the bank and the grocery store. That in it self is never easy with my kids! If they could they'd fill a whole cart up with snacks that rarely are good for them and if it is a "HEALTHIER" choice its usually loaded with sugar. I'm always telling my kids they are sweet enough they don't need any added SUGAR! 

I was beyond the moon when I was able to give Gluten Free Bites a try. These are great bite size on the go snacks that really FILL you up. I love the resealable bag to keep them fresh and don't let the size fool you...two of these are enough to keep you and your kids full until the next meal!

Created by two gluten-free brothers Marshall and Elliott, and with a little help from their chief friend Jermery.  The bites feature easy-to-understand and wholesome ingredients like toasted cashews, cherries, California almonds, Virginia peanuts, and crisped brown rice. 

Available in new kid-friendly PB&J and  dark chocolate hazelnut varieties, this snack’s chewy and moist inside and lightly toasted crunch on the outside tastes like homemade GOODNESS! Really its a HUGE HUG for your taste buds!!!

·         Packed with great source of protein derived from brown rice & pea protein (10-12 grams!)
·         High in fiber and made with all-natural (70% organic) and GMO-free ingredients
·         Certified gluten-free, vegan, and Kosher (made in-house at GFB’s dedicated facility)
·         Free of fillers, additives,wheat, soy, cholesterol, trans fat, casein and dairy

The bites come in  amazing flavors like

~Coconut Cashew Crunch

~Dark Chocolate Coconut

Fun Summer Toy #PocketDisc #review

~




The Pocket Disc is the most versatile disc on earth.  All cotton and very 

pack-able, its the ultimate travel toy - people love playing anywhere from

 music festivals to indoors with their kids on a rainy day.  Dogs love 'em too - 

 won't chip their teeth or cut their gums.  As a play toy (not left out to chew)

 the Pocket Disc will last for years for Fido.

But most of all the Pocket Disc is fun.  I also like how well it sores and because its sof if you catch with your face --like I tend to do--NO PAIN!!!  =^D

 They come in a wide range of beautiful colorful patterns- 

The site  also offer a nice array of other items including 4 styles of Pocket Discs, kicksacks (aka hacky sacks), pet collars, headbands, and more.  

I see much Pocket Disc fun
in your future! 

The story  is  Six years ago it was done as a School Project by the owners

 daughter-- now over 1 million discs have  sold, that help support

 over 500 artisans.  Installed water filtration systems in their villages

 and the work is enabling the children to stay in school longer, enhancing their

 education.  



A great toy with a worthy cause -I can get behind!!

We Came... They Danced... MOVE DID IT ALL #MoveLiveOnTour

I was pleased to Win tickets for MoveLiveOnTour from a local radio station. My daughter is a HUGH HOUGH fan and after watching this show SO AM I!!!

If you haven’t seen Move! Live on Tour, featuring superstar siblings Derek &

 Julianne Hough of “Dancing with the Stars” fame, you are missing out on

 something special. They are the best sibling duo out of Utah since Donnie and

 Marie! 

(The Hough duo made reference to the Osmonds -and my daughter asked

 "WHO ARE THEY?!!?!!-I FELT OLD!!!!  LOL)

The show was full of life, lifts and hip whips!!!

There was MUCH audience participation that made for some great moments!

The stage it self was just as awesome as the dancers and the troop dancing with  the Houghs were EXCEPTIONAL! I liked that  along with the dancing we were treated to their amazing voices too.

Loved everything from the choreography to the wity banter and inspirational messages that was presented for fans of  all ages.  THEY REALLY DID DO IT ALL!!!

Go see it!
Tour dates for the rest of July!
