Women's Silk Satin Short Bridal Kimono Robe by Simplicity

This is such a soft silky feeling satin. It just feel like you are wearing satin sheets. It feels great on my skin. The purple is a very vibrant color and is evenly colored all over. I noticed no light or dark spots anywhere on it. I washed mine in the washer on gentle cycle  and it did not seem to fade or bleed the color at all.

 This is a short robe it goes between mid thigh and knee on me and I am 5'6. The sleeves are about a 3/4 sleeve. I like putting this on when my arms get cold. It is warm feeling even though it is thin material. This also comes with a waist sash  that is plenty long enough to tie around my waist but does not hang below the hem of the robe.

I love the feel of this robe, I love the quality of the stitching, I love the color.. I guess I should just say I love everything about this robe.

You will not loose the functionality of your phone, your screen will still swipe, your buttons will still push, and your ringer can still be heard. You cannot however use your earphones without pinching the wire really tight and loosing some of the waterproofness.
 
 It is a great waterproof bag. I live in Florida and during the rainy season you just never know when they sky is going to drop buckets of water on you. My husband and I love riding the motorcycle and this bag I am sure will save my phone many times. I like being about to hang it around my neck while riding so I don't have to worry about carrying a cross over bag or it falling out of a pocket,

This also comes with a bike handlebar mount. Perfect for my husband at all times. He can keep his phone in site. We use the GPS a good bit when we are riding or taking trips on the motorcycle. This is made for a bicycle but does fit on the motorcycle handlebar as well as it is adjustable.

Morning Medicine Funny Glass Coffee Mug 13 oz by Got Me Tipsy

My Daughter is in the medical field and when I saw this coffee cup I knew she had to have it. I was right she loves it.

This is a 13 ounce clear coffee cup. The writing is very clearly written and the does not come off. I tried scratching at it with my nails and it did not even mark it. I hand washed it at first with no problems and it has been in the dishwasher a few times already with no problems at all. The glass is very sturdy and can take a bag or 2. We know this because it was knocked off the counter. It did not chip or crack. I am not saying it will not break I am just saying it did not break.

I have a few other glasses and cups by Got me Tipsy and they all look as new today as when I bought them. Some I have had over a year. I love the detail and design of their glassware. All of the ones I own have some sort of saying on them and they are all humorous.

Longil Fashion Silver-tone Crescent New Moon Pendant Necklace

This is a really beautiful necklace and I am very happy with it,  It comes on a almost 16 inch chain. The moon and tree of life pendants are separate  but hooked together to make a stunning display when they are moving around. I have been wearing this for almost a week and so far it has not turned my neck green or dark.
  The craftsmanship and detail of this necklace is just awesome and very beautiful. The design is very detailed. In person it is even more beautiful. To give n idea of size the tree is about the size of a US nickle and the moon is about the size f a US half dollar. Kind of large for some people but I love the size. Any smaller and you would not be able to see the detail.

FREETOO Electronic Pedicure Foot File Callus Remover Waterproof- Foot Care by TPRANCE

I have to admit I am a hillbilly and only wear shoes when I absolutely have to and most of the time those shoes are flip flops. So the bottoms of my feet are like sandpaper wrapped around rocks.

This is a very nice foot file that has helped to smooth out the bottoms of my feet, and it does it very quickly. The callus remover is comfortable to hold in my hand while using it. It runs on 4 AA batteries which are not included. The bottom screws off to install the batteries and also doubles as the power switch. turn it one way for power the other for the battery compartment. This is made of plastic and is very lightweight. Mine works very well and I am very happy with it.

My husband who has been wearing them has had no problems using his fingers on the buttons, knobs, and handles of the bike. They are very comfortable to wear and do not squeeze or pinch. I even tossed his pain in the washer and dryer with no problems.

Book Description:

Give a child a cardboard box and his imagination will turn it into anything but!

Today, it is less common to see children playing in the streets, especially in urban areas. The plethora of ready-made toys should make any child happy.  What usually happens is that the box the toy came in becomes the toy!

This book documents children at play (and at times at work) from 10 different countries. A child's ingenuity never ceases to amaze me and I hope you will share these images with your children as well.  

My Review:
  I am in awe of the book. It is amazing, Awesome,wonderful, fantastic. I love each and every picture. I love how each picture tells a story and no words were needed at all. I fell blessed to have been one of the chosen to review this book.
 Debra Schoenberger has managed to tell one heck of a story without using any words at all. The pictures in this book are just amazing. If I had to pinpoint 1 picture in this book as being my favorite I couldn't. I did see a few that stuck with me. 
  There is one of a small child setting in a man's lap, I assume her father. It does not show the people faces, but the way he has his arms around the child and his hands crossed over her, it just screams I Love this child. 
   There is a picture of a mother fixing her daughters hair, the girl probably 5 is pouting, there is another little girl standing beside them, she looks to be about 2 or 3 and she is wringing her hands and looking at the floor with this look on her face like "Oh no and I'm next", I just had to laugh at this picture. 
   There is also a set of 4 pictures, a little girl and her Daddy waiting on the train beside a snow covered hill, both of them are reading the newspaper. The little girl looks to be about 2 or 3. 
  I could go on and on until I described all of the pictures in this book. they are just wonderful. You can see so much in the eyes and expressions on thee kids faces that you need no words at all. 
  I have the PDF version of the book but will be getting the hard copy. My Grand Kids love looking at pictures of kids, They really enjoy my photo albums. They love to discuss each picture in them. What the child is doing, are they mad, sad, happy. They decide what each picture depicts. They would really love this book.. With so many pictures in so many situations. 

   Great Job Debra!!!!

Author's Bio:

Debra Schoenberger aka #girl with camera

"My dad always carried a camera under the seat of his car and was constantly taking pictures. I think that his example, together with pouring over National Geographic magazines as a child fuelled my curiosity for the world around me.

I am a documentary photographer and street photography is my passion. Some of my images have been chosen by National Geographic as editor's favourites and are on display in the National Geographic museum in Washington, DC.  I also have an off-kilter sense of humour so I'm always looking for the unusual.  Plus I usually have a lot of scars on my knees.

​(le sigh...)

I live with my creative director, Miss Pickles (my budgie) in Victoria, BC, Canada.

Newborn / Baby Photography Sessions by Debra Schoenberger New parents will choose a photographer based on the the quality and style of their work, which is good, they’ve done their research.  There are many types of newborn photography styles out there so the choice is yours. When asked by a potential client about the types of props I use, I tell them that I don’t use props.  That’s not really my style (although there are some very sweet images of babies sitting in their daddy’s fireman’s boots!) I prefer to shoot a session which emphasizes the tenderness and love between the parent and their baby. Every session is different as is every baby.  Some will sleep through the whole session while some babies cry most of the time.  I have learned to be patient - something wonderful and unique happens during every newborn shoot.  For newborn sessions, between seven and 10 days is best because at that time most babies will curl up naturally and it’s really not a lot of work. Parents tend to get too stressed out about how their baby should be posed.  In my experience I’ve learned to let the baby be themselves - depending on their age and ability to play with toys, just let them play.  The rest will take care of itself.
