Try this on your next past night!!

 

Tryazon sent us a fun wonderful and tasty treat this past week. We got Cucina Artica pasta sauce that had just a wonderful fresh tomato taste. I did like how it wasn't too full of chunks so none of my kids complained about that part. But the hit for sure was the the Taste Republic four cheese tortelloni the taste was so wonderful and my kid just kept asking for more! We found them at Whole Foods in the cold section and then brought them home and after four minutes in boiling water they were ready to eat. They were oh so yummy and I can't wait until we get to try more of the pasta line. The great news is they are gluten free so many can enjoy even if they can't usually have noodles!

Bestway Spring Swim Party

 

We had a pool party in Kansas on April Fool's Day? It wasn't a joke! Lots of fun had to day even with a few inches of water in a VERY big pool. Everyone was super impressed with the size. It only took about one hour to do the pool set up. We got LOTS of advice of what to put under it and around it to make sure we have a successful summer with the pool from other pool owners. The kids thought the water was great even if it was only 60 degrees outside. I can't believe how big this Coleman Power Swim Vista Series II pool was 22 feet across! It will take several days to fill this to the brim or a water truck coming out to fill it up. The kids had a blast, the windows were loved by all so fun to look through and also to look in. I know they will be even more fun when the pool is full and we put the floating lights on it. It comes with a ladder, cover filter. I think we got a lot of kids ready for summer today, now they can't wait to swim in the backyard for three months! Thanks Bestway and Tryazon for allowing us to host this party!

Valentine's Ritual Box Review


What a fun box! I have loved Rituals for a long time so I jumped on the chance to try a new product box. The Rituals of Sakura box was a lot of fun. The scent is cherry blossoms and rice milk. I thought I would not enjoy the scent of cherry but it was a nice soft scent that I really enjoyed. It came with a hand soap, body foam wash, a body lotion and a body scrub. I am excited to continue to use this product. The other fun thing about these boxes is the boxes themselves. They are so beautiful and so nice to keep around. They are very sturdy and my kids like to keep the boxes and put things in them. I received this box for free from Tryazon and Rituals all opinions stated in here are my own.

Spa Night with Spin Master Review



How do you have a party in the middle of rising covid numbers? Well you make people get appointments like at a real salon! We had fun trying several products and I will give a little description of each one. 
Hollywood Hair was a hit. There are pieces of ribbon that come and there are some with designs already on them or kids can design their own with the markers that are included. They had a few hair clips to keep them in the hair as well. It was quick and easy to make a pretty hair extension. 

The Go Glam nail salon was a lot of fun. It came with two nail polish colors, top coat, and five fun "sticker" designs that the girls could put on their fingers. This was a big hit at our house and the nails turned out great. 

This was the one that the girls were the most excited about- who doesn't want to have a tub full of orbeez to soak their feet in! The little motor allows for orbeez to cascade down onto the feet in the tub. We had a lot fun with these products thanks so much to all the sponsors of this Tryazon pack. These are all three very fun Christmas gift ideas for girls ages probably 6-11.

Spin Master Fall Family Game night- Tryazon

 More games! I was so excited to be selected for the Spin Master Games Tryazon Party. And then Covid 

Not at our house but a few schools went back to remote learning and the area advised us not to have too many people around our houses. So the party was small but the games were fun! 


The first game was called Upwords- it is a twist on Scrabble but words can be change by stacking letters on top of each other. We had a fun time playing that game and feel we really need to work on our longer word skill set! This game is probably good for people 10+ as it's kind of hard (even for me) to come up with words that work! 
Hedbanz is a game our family has owned and loved for years. There is a bit of a twist on this game as the headbands are now made with a softer more durable plastic and there are fun choices to wear, from Frankenstein, a black cat, unicorn, a crown, a sleepy person and a few others. We really enjoy getting to play this game. 
Finally a game for our younger crowd called Grouch Couch- This game is probably best played for kids 8 and under. There is a red couch that you throw small game pieces on and then you press the remote to see if the couch is happy. If he is then he will spit out a coin or maybe two and the person with the most coins when he starts to sing wins the game. 
Thanks again to Tryazon and Spin Master for letting us host this fun game night!

Smart Games Review

I will write a few things but I love how this video turned out! My daughter is getting pretty skilled at her camera and video making skills. These games from Smart Games are a lot of fun and great for the current climate in our country. When social distancing is the key phrase in every conversation it is great for classrooms to be able to have some options for giving students something fun and challenging to do alone at their desk. We were able to test three products IQ Stars, Astroid Escape and Shooting Stars. Our favorite game was for sure the IQ Stars, for several nights it was all my kids wanted to play we also really liked Asteroid Escape and even kids who would not normally sit down and play a game enjoyed this challenge. I was very happy to be to donate my extra set of games to my son's second grade class. Thank you Smart Games and Tryazon for this wonderful experience.

Vasta Tryazon Party

 

Vasta sheet slicer- claims to make vegetable and fruit sheets or fettuccine sized veggie noodles. Our family and friends were excited to try this out, but I will say we have a little bit of work to do with fully understanding how the Vasta slicer works. We had great luck with our apples and the kids really enjoyed eating them with peanut butter and jelly. With the squash and zucchini we didn't have the greatest luck BUT I am blaming a not super fresh veggie on that. I have not given up and am planning on getting a few more since I found an amazing recipe for zucchini noodles I just need to go find me another zucchini. The machine is available on Amazon and Walmart.com It is set at a very affordable price as well. Thank you Vasta and Tryazon for the opportunity to try this out. We will continue to use it in the upcoming weeks!
