Camping Table

We are loving this new folding/portable camping table. Although it is for camping we have been using this for family game nights since our old bones don't like sitting on the floor anymore as well as on our front porch. So easy to put together. Measures 27.56 x 27.56 x 27.56 inches. and holds 120 lbs. We love the included bag for portability as well as the mess storage unit under the table for extras like games, citronella candles, etc. 

This is a great item for camping, BBQ, entertaining a few guests, family backyard in the evenings. I was very surprised by the stability as well as how sturdy this product it. Good quality with a table top that will last years.

Pastry POP Tart

I bet you were thinking something totally different then sneakers. These are my daughter's new sneakers for school this year. The name is so cute Pastry POP Tart Grid. I love that they came laced, are comfortable to wear, easy for my daughter to put on or take off, while being really flexible for her ever growing feet.

This sneaker comes in several sizes and is synthetic. So if you need a pair for school, dance, or just to match your outfits these might be what you are looking for. I know my daughter has worn them several times to school getting compliments. She loves how they look and how they feel on her feet. If my daughters feet are happy I am happy.

Keep those points sharp

As parents soon as the kids started school we like to have a pencil sharpener available at home. Early on we decided on electric pencil sharpeners. This year we have one from Vic Tagen. Not that we needed a new one we just can't find out old one from when we moved. We know it is somewhere but no where it should have been so far so we picked this one up.

I like that it can be used in three different ways. One with 4 AA batteries, through USB, or with the included AC cord. Makes having it portable and ready great for our family.

This pencil sharpener also is safer since it will not turn on when the pencil shaving cover is not in place. Gives me a little piece of mind for when my grand daughter is over that she won't get hurt while using it.


The pencil shaving cover held about 12 pencils worth of shavings without binding up the sharpening area before having to empty. Great for home or school use. Has strongest sharpening when used with AC cord.

Now that we have all of our pencils sharpened it is homework time here in Marksville. What items do you like to have on hand for your children during school time?
