10 Thumbs UP!

Chocolate Wonderfall!! 10 Thumbs Up!


Our family enjoyed a dinner out at the Golden Corrall this week.

We were in awe of the transformation the dessert area of the buffet had undergone!

There was a GIGANTIC Chocolate Fountain, complete with an arrangement of delicious items to dip in the flowing chocolate.


My children had a hard time choosing what to dip - but once they started, it was hard to stop!

I had my eye on the coconut macaroons and strawberries right away!

I had a hard time making myself eat my dinner first!

There were so many tempting choices of food to dip in the fountain:





strawberries
coconut macaroons
pineapple
marshmallows
rice crispy treats


My youngest even tried to dip some gummy bears! Yummy!

So, if you're looking for a fun and delicious place to enjoy some dessert (not to mention the endless supply of choices at the dinner buffet), the Chocolate Wonderfall at The Golden Corrall is worth looking forward to!






All 5 of my family members gave it 2 Thumbs up for being Good 4 Kids ~ Good 4 Parents!

Wish Lists



Between the over abundance of television advertisements during my children's favorite shows, and my mailbox overflowing with every catalog imaginable, I see the Christmas shopping imminent in my near future!

I love Christmas. Giving gifts is one of my favorite things to do.

I also love to shop.

But the choices are overwhelming - especially when I have fickle children who change their minds every 2 minutes!

I have been keeping track of the things my children ask for, and what I would actually like to see them receive on an amazon.com wishlist!


You can add any item from any website to your amazon.com wishlist.

Each of my children has their own wishlist, and it is customized to their own likes and wishes!




There are so many advantages to having everything in one place - and easy to share!

My sister-in-law and my mother have recently asked me what my children would like for Christmas. I was able to send the kids' wish lists with the click of my mouse!

Corn Maze = Good Fun for All!

Never having been to a Corn Maze, and not sure about what exactly it entailed, my daughter and I ventured to a local family-owned orchard.

She convinced me to try out the Corn Maze!

I am glad she did!
We had a GREAT time!
There were a few different themes to chose from in the same maze - and once you chose your topic, you received a fun sheet with directions.

There were posts located throughout the maze with numbers on them, corresponding to your directions. One of ours was to sing "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" turning every time you sung a word, and head in the direction you end up facing! HOW FUN!


So, my 7-year-old daughter and I give the Corn Maze "4 Thumbs Up" for being Good 4 Kids and Good 4 Parents! :)

Lowe's Build And Grow Clinics!

Good 4 Kids and Good 4 Parents LOVES Lowe's Build and Grow Clinics!


Parents can bring their children to Lowe's Home Improvement Stores to build something together!

My husband and I took our three children to our neighborhood Lowe's and built "Monster Trucks" this past Saturday!
Our daughter, age 7, kept saying how "cool" it was to build this truck all by herself!
Our older son, age 4, LOVES following the directions, and building his own truck too!
Our 3-year-old son needed much more help with his truck, but was able to swing the hammer and put the stickers on! He LOVED it!
These monster trucks are THE coveted toys in our house right now. All three of the kids play with them constantly!

Next time you are looking for something fun and different to do with your children, check out:
http://www.lowesbuildandgrow.com/



for information about their upcoming Build and Grow clinics!







Sign up early, as many locations fill their slots quickly!







The first time you sign up, your child will receive his/her own Lowe's apron and safety goggles!



I hear that each weekend in December will bring a fun part of the "Santa Train" this year!







Happy Building!
