A Splashing Good Time

Not only did we get to see our friends and Grandma Norma on a recent warm summer day but we got to get all wet too...and the best part? It was FREE! I just love an inexpensive outing that gets us outside and ER running around. We'd never been to this spray zone before, located in the civic center of the town next to where Brad grew up.It's very impressive with a few inches of water to splash around in and lots of sprayers lining the circular spray zone. There are more concentrated right in one area for kids who want non stop water fun.

ER was content to jump and kick around for most of the time. Filling our bucket up with water from the sprayers was another big hit.The biggest hit for the mommies along? The shade covered tables and chairs all around, so we could sit and be close enough to watch the action and stay dry ourselves. The girls ever so thoughfully picked sprayers right in front us to play at.

It was nice to relax a bit ourselves☺ We had a quick bite to eat together and came home in time to beat the commuter traffic. It was a perfect summer outing.

Digital Room Custom Greeting Cards Giveaway

I have a great new product for to share with you and this time TWO of you can win a great giveaway from Digital Room too!

Digital Room is a trusted online printing company, with over 25 years of experiences, committed to providing a high quality printing experience at affordable prices for small and medium sized businesses nationwide. One product they provide are their custom greeting cards and custom postcards.

I think there are many great ways you could use these custom greeting cards:

Weddings: Make save the date custom postcards to announce your upcoming nuptials or showcase a favorite picture from the big day and use it on the thank you cards after the event.

New Home: Wouldn't it'd be fun to take a picture of your new digs for the front and sending them out sharing your new contact information?

For Babies: Create adorable and one of a kind baby announcement to share the new addition to your family! If this isn't your first child, I think it'd be really cute for them to be an annoucement from your older children. I got one from a friend's daughter annoucing that she's a big sister, with a picture of the two of them on the front as well as one of the new baby.

Parents: Create custom greeting cards with your last name on them, give your family a "brand" with a fun logo look to it and keep them on hand for correspondence cards or thank you notes. Or you could use them to create your own customized monogrammed cards just for you!

Holidays: Digital scrapbookers, use a fun digital kit and show off your skills by making and send unique greetings.

Business Owners: Help create a brand with you logo on a custom postcard. Have them ready to send out to customers with details about special events, display by your registers and hand out to customers, or enclose them in package before you seal it to ship. There are lots of promotional possibilities!

Here's what I'd do, but I'd also add our last name under the branch flush right. Since I'm getting 250 I want to make sure I can use them for a long time and for many different reasons. I think a set of family custom greeting cards are just the thing! A really lovely family photo would also make a great card front. Two Winners!

I Heart Faces: Week 32 Bubbles Photo

This week on I Faces we're sharing bubble photos; when I saw that I immediately thought of a series of pictures I took on the Fourth of July 2008. We were waiting for our friends to arrive for a barbeque and ER was getting pretty antsy looking out for the girls. Blowing bubbles seemed like the perfect way to distract her.

At two years old, using one of the little hand held wands was too challenging for her, and these giant bubble wands were the perfect find! With it she could blow lots of big beautiful bubbles all at once. She's making happily little gurgling noises and laughing all the while.

If you're here from I Faces, welcome and please leave me a comment so I know you've been by and so I can come over and see your bubble entry in this week's sharing forum.
