Going a Little Green

Today is Earth Day, so I figured today would be a perfect day to share a new earth friendly product that I just discovered {and fell in love with}. I came across some of the coolest lunch boxes ever a few weeks ago, and I just had to buy some for my boys.
{click on the name to check out their website}
Besides all the great selling point:
{100% recyclable}
{dishwasher safe}
{no plastic bags needed}
{made in the USA}
&
{SUPER adorable}

They also come in all three of my boys' colors {blue, green, and orange}!

The lunch box is divided into sections, so you don't need plastic baggies to send carrots and crackers, or almonds and cucumbers. Plus it comes with a juice bottle, so I can stop buying those expensive individual drinks! Each Goodbyn comes with a roll of 275+ adorable stickers.
I decorated each of my boys' Goodbyns with their name and a few other stickers {I didn't want the outside to be covered with a ton of stickers}. But I am going to let them decorate the juice bottle however they want:)
So far, I have been very impressed with the Goodbyn, and Henry is loving his new lunchbox! Grant and Eli will get to try theirs out this summer when we take picnics to the park.
Happy Earth Day! Do something GREEN!

{I bought these SUPER adorable lunchboxes with my own money, and I did not receive any compensation for sharing it on my blog. I really do love this product and I simple wanted to share it with all of you!}

Wordless Wednesday: A Work in Progress & A Decorating Dilemma

New storage baskets
Picture Frames
Pillows from Placemats
New couch 1
New couch 2
molding
New blinds******************
We are working on redoing our living room...which includes a new couch, a new arrangement, fresh {but not a new color} paint, new blinds, some furniture makeovers, new wall hangings, and some new accessories.
For the most part the redo is going great, but the accessories are giving me a little trouble. So today I am linking up with Decorating Dilemmas hosted by Amanda!
So here is my dilemma:


This is a candle holder that is made to look like an old sugar mold. I love it, but it is in need of a makeover. As you can tell, my monkeys {mainly Eli} have gotten their little hands on the candles and broken three of them. That means I need a new idea of what to put in the candle holder. I also think the color could use a facelift as well. Any tips or ideas are greatly appreciated!

A Great Anytime Snack

After Henry's Camp Out birthday party last week, I found that we had an abundance of graham crackers in the house. Mostly because the boys at the party loved to just eat the marshmallows right off their roasting sticks:) So most of the marshamallows didn't even make it onto the graham crackers!

Because we had a ton of graham crackers and no marshmallows to make s'mores, I decided to make the next best thing! I smeared a ton of peanut butter onto my graham crackers...
...I sandwiched two graham crackers together... ....and I had one of the yummiest anytime snacks ever!
Sometimes the simpliest things are the best:)
Have a great day, and don't forget to enjoy the simple things!

Not Me! Monday


Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

********************************
Today is NOT my hubby's 30th birthday. There is NO way that he is turning 30 today, because that means in two short months I will be turning 30 also! I am NOT just a little freaked out about the fact that our 20's are gone...though I know that getting older is better than the alternative:)

I am NOT making a surprise cake for my hubby's birthday using 30 of these:
Krispy Kreme DonutsDonut Birthday Cake This will NOT be one of the few times when it will be okay to eat 'birthday cake' for breakfast!

We did NOT decide very last minute to buy a few gallons of paint and repaint our living room. We did NOT have just a few accidents while attempting to repaint the living room. Those accidents did NOT include Jason shaking a not completely closed container of paint and splashing it all over the kitchen. Eli also did NOT do this:

paint on carport{ with a used paint roller} all over the carport and down the driveway!


What have you NOT been doing this week?
