Huggies Rewards

For all you mama's out there.....Do you keep up with your Huggies Rewards points?  (the little yellow sticker inside the wrapper of the diapers?)  I am a coupon/reward card junkie, so I started saving all the little stickers on the diapers and entering the codes in on-line.  I glanced over the reward catalog a time or two, and saw several things I wanted.  This week I got an email with awesome news!.......they now offer diapers as a reward....CHA-CHING!!!  This girl is now cashing in!!!

P.S.  You can get rewards from wipes too!

Check it out on Huggies.com

Saturday



I had a "catch up" day today!  I intended to sleep in, my vacation is almost over....but, as always, I woke up about 7 a.m.  I waited to see if Reese was going to get up also, but that silly girl slept until 9:00!  That never happens!  I got tons of stuff done before the princess got up!

McKenna came home from baseball practice and watched Reese while I cleaned out the fridge and did the dishes and got the kitchen cleaned up.  For some reason, my house always seems cleaner if my kitchen is clean!  I whipped up a cookie bar recipe for the Back to School bash at our Youth ministers house tonight.  It was so good...recipe to follow!

Reese and I laid down and took a little nap this afternoon.  We all came home from Alabama with a summer cold and I personally feel like a truck ran over my face.  Ugh, I hate sinus pressure!  We got up and got ready to go to Robin and Steve's house.  We ate hot dogs and hamburgers, then watched the kids swim.  I won a game of horseshoes against Bill then we had the neatest experience....Steve set up a movie on the outside screen, it was awesome to watch under the stars.  The movie was called Homerun....it was fabulous if you ever get the chance to see it!
Here's the recipe I made:
1 yellow cake mix
1 egg
1 stick butter, melted
Mix above ingredients and pat into greased 13 x 9 pan.
Add a layer of coconut, then chopped pecans, then milk chocolate chips.
Pour a can of Eagle brand milk over the entire pan.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Danger...it is RICH!

5 on Friday!





It's FRIDAY!!  Yippee!   I'm linking up today to share my favorite things today!!  This is the last day of my vacation, so I'll try to stay upbeat!  Haha!

ONE.....I'm loving my girl even more this week!  She's is at the age where she repeats things I say, yes, I know, I have to be careful from now on!  But when I am getting her ready to go somewhere, I'll say, "let's go" and she says "go, go, go."  It's so stinking cute!  Or when I am in the house and I need to go to another room, I'll say "go."  and she'll say it then too!  I love it!

TWO....We started the Beth Moore Bible Study "Esther" in my ladies group at church.  It. is. amazing.  If you've ever attended a study with her, you understand what I'm talking about.  This is the second study in a row our group has done.  I love being a part of a group of ladies that desires to study His word and supports each other in our everyday life.

THREE....I'm loving the approaching school year!  School is about to start here, like, next week!  With school brings schedules, routines, and fresh school supplies!  My son will be a Sophomore, so there's not a lot of supplies we buy, but for him, school means the start of Fall baseball!!  Woo hoo!  That gets us excited at the Pierce house!!!!

FOUR.....I'm in love with Gulf Shores, Alabama.  We just spent the week down there and I loved everything about it!  The water, the sand, the sun....oh, it was toatally awesome!  We ate, laughed, slept, played in the water, played in the sand.  Before we left the city limits we were planning next years vacation!

FIVE....I'm loving all the back to school sales!  I scored khaki cargo shorts at Abercrombie for my teen, for 15.00!  That's more than half off!!  Woo hoo!!
