Junior Plus Size Womens Maxi Dress




When I first told my family I wanted to start doing some Fashion Blogs, we were not sure how we would first implement them and then a few days later I was approved for this dress.

I told my daughter I had a dress coming for her and the first things she said is that it probably wouldn't fit or she wouldn't like it.

Surprise it not only fit perfectly, but is one of her new favorite dresses. She received lots of  complements on it. She wore this for her last Senior Choir Concert with a lace shrug from Deb's which I have heard is going out of business, so I hope another teen plus clothing store opens up.

I hope to see more fashions from Fashion Plus in the future and look forward to working with them again. A happy daughter makes for a very Happy Mother.

Dream Dots

I wasn't most teens I didn't deal with breakouts unless you count the one I get every month around my cycle, other then that I have been acne free. On the other hand my children who have a bit of their father in them each had their own bought with acne, some worse then others. My daughter  who can sing no problem for YouTube really wanted to do this video but put it off to the last day to turn in my post. 

See here in Marksville everyone tries the products out that are meant for that age or gender and then they tell me how they liked it what could be better, etc. This is one of the products my 18 year old was generally excited to tell me just how great it works. 

This was an easy to use and product that does what it says it will do, which all of love to hear because that means it is worth handing over the dough for.

Do forgive the rough video but like I said it was her first one where she isn't actually singing or in the background talking. 






You can purchase Dream Dots in two sizes on Amazon.

What Dream Dots has to say about their product. 

A Dream Dot isn’t simply a sticker — it’s a unique super absorbent hydro matrix patch. It targets spots and breakouts overnight using no harsh ingredients, yet gives dramatically effective results. With a 100% waterproof, breathable, satin-smooth, wafer-thin surface, it acts seamlessly as a second skin, conforming to any contour of the face. On contact with the spot, the patented core locks in and absorbs the spot exudate. A moist healing environment is formed, maintaining ideal pH balance, temperature and hydration levels while sealing in repair factors, which leads to faster healing. Pain is reduced as nerve endings are cushioned and protected in this moist condition. The patch swells and turns white overnight as it absorbs exudate giving a visible reduction in redness and inflammation when removed in the morning.

3600 Piece Glow in the Dark Loom Band Set 6 Colors


Most children and even some adults have gotten in on the Loom Band craze, including my children, and I have to admit if these had been around back in the day I would have loved to make these.

Now I haven't actually made a bracelet yet but my daughters have. We have learned the hard way that all bands are not made equal. Some are way to large and cheaply made while others like the 3600 Piece Glow in the Dark Loom Band Set are perfect.

Plus this set is glow in the dark. Think 4th of July Sleepovers, Camping. The kids will have a great time and you will be able to see where they are. My girls are very excited to be able to make and wear some of these over Summer vacation when we go on a few road trips. I know they will be busy and happy making bracelets, necklaces, and anything else they imagine.

As a mom I also like that this comes with a book so that my girls can see some other ideas they might want to try. Now if only I can steal away a loom long enough to learn how to make them myself.

You can purcahse the 3600 Piece Glow in the Dark Loom Band Se on Amazon.

Mom's Journey: Practical Tips for Raising Kids




MarksvilleandMe reviews 
Mom's Journey: Practical Tips for Raising Kids
written by
Limor Friedman

As a parent you are always wondering if you are doing things right so reading other parenting books and magazines give us insight on ideas we can try as well as those to stay clear from. With Mom's Journey: Practical Tips for Raising Kids it is no different, this book was written by a mom for other parents, she wanted to share what worked and didn't work for her while raising her children.

I can't lie and say I agreed with all of her tactics but she does raise valid points on other issues, and some that we have already implemented in our years of raising children, on our own. You pick what will work for your family and child. No one but you as the parent can make the decision on what is right or wrong in raising your children. Everyone has their own way of doing things even if some are just like other parents out there.

As parents we are to love unconditionally and raise our children to be able to take care of themselves one day. It doesn't happen over night but over a lifetime of being a parent.

You can purchase on Amazon

Bellaboo Chocolate Mask For Tweens and Teens



I love to tell my readers about great products, but my children love to help out with some of the reviews as well. Bellaboo Sweet Sin Chocolate Face Mask could not have come at a better time. It is still very much winter here and tonight we are getting what looks like an ice storm. My husband said the roads were pretty bad and he traveled all of the main roads to get home instead of taking backroad shortcuts.

The girls decided it was time to get out the face mask and give it a whirl. Oh boy does it smell like chocolate and goes on like a thick pudding, but looks like melted chocolate once on the face. You can view my video on YouTube here.

My daughter Deanna pictured below did not feel tingling like others said their children had, but I have felt that with grownup masks so I am pretty sure I understand what they are talking about, it just didn't happen with my daughter.

We did a little spa night which my girls love, we try to do something special a few times a week depending on how healthy I am at the time being. Once the mask dried my daughter went up to take a shower and wash the mask off.

She came running down after the shower because she wanted everyone to feel how soft and smooth her face was, well she is sold, and she doesn't like just anything.

What I liked best which I didn't mention in my video is how this doesn't have sulphates or parabens in it. Sulphates my daughter is allergic to which is something I look for in food or medicine all of the time but didn't always check what we were putting on our bodies for the allergen.

As a mother keeping your children healthy and safe is never ending.
