Information Advertising, Guest Bloggers, Reviews, Giveaways, & More

For any questions about the below, please contact me.


Giveaway Sponsors:
I love to do giveaways on my site and use Random.org to randomly choose a winner from my comments. If you would like to sponsor a giveaway, please contact me and be prepared to ship to the winner. You will receive a free 125 x 125 advertising space on my sidebar during the duration of your giveaway. I prefer to run my giveaways for approximately a week.

I prefer that one, non-returnable item be sent to me for review before the giveaway since giveaways naturally go along with reviews. I will write my review of your product and at the end of the post, will announce the giveaway. At the end of my giveaway, I will announce the winner and contact you with their name(s) and address(es) for direct shipping to them. Just be sure to let me know the specifics: what you’d like me to give away, how many of each item you are giving, who the giveaway is open to (ex. Only US), etc.

If you choose to only giveaway an item and not send one to me for review, I will have to charge you for all my time. Cost = $10.00 USD


Let me review your products on my site:
I will use your NON_RETURNABLE products and give an honest review of them. If possible, I prefer to also be able to offer a giveaway of the reviewed product to my readers. I would love to hear from anyone looking to promote their products and/or services. Please make sure they are family friendly, as this is a family-oriented site. I reserve the right to refuse to print anything that may not be well-suited for this particular blog and the topics I cover. We are interested/have the following things in our household and I will review anything having to do with them:



  1. Boys! Brothers! Son!
  2. Homemaking: anything that can help make my hectic life a bit easier
  3. Crafts: cross-stitching, traditional scrapbooking, jewelry making, drawing
  4. Cooking: we love trying new things and I am a kitchen gadget fiend
  5. Reading: my oldest son and I are both AVID readers of anything with words
  6. Homeschooling: I homeschool my Gifted 3rd grader and my toddler
  7. Game consoles: we own a PSP, PS2, Wii, Nintendo DS, and GameBoy advanced

If I didn’t list something and you are offering it, please be sure to contact me… you never know, I might be interested. Also note that while I have no girls, I have 4 nieces, aged 2-15, that all live within 5 country miles of me, and that I see at least weekly. Bows, dresses, dolls, etc...
