WW: Sailun Tires Track Event {Linky} #TrustSailun

Last Wednesday, I spent the day with Sailun Tires, PTPA Media Inc., and fellow Sailun Tire Brand Ambassadors at the Sailun Tires Track Event. We spent the day learning about the brand, vehicle/road safety and putting the tires to the test. It was safe to say all the brand ambassadors had a need for speed on the day of the event!

I'll have a full wrap-up post to share with you in the coming days, but for now I just had to share a few photos from the event with you! It's safe to say I'm still reeling from the event. It was an adrenaline filled day, and such an amazing experience!

Celebrate Your Little One's Best Little Laugh with Fisher-Price #BestLittleLaugh

There truly is no sweeter sound to a parent than the sound of their little one's giggles or full on belly laugh. It's such an innocent sound that is so pure. It always makes my heart want to burst into millions of itty-bitty pieces of confetti when I hear my little ones laugh. It makes me that happy.

Recently, my 2-year old son took to covering his mouth with his hand as he belly laughs. Promptly after finishing his giggle fest he will chime, "Tam-a-ren, sooooooo funny!". It is seriously the cutest thing ever!

My son spent most of his infancy suffering from colic and severe GERD. It resulted in lots of crying from him (and well... sometimes... me). When my son turned 9 months old, we finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. It brings me such joy to see what a down to earth and happy little man my son has become.

Although I can say that my daughter took much delight in trying to mimic and mock my son during his infancy. All with good intentions though. She was determined that by mocking him as he sobbed that it would result in him giggling at her humorous and silly behaviour. Not always the case though. Got to love siblings!

Nowadays my house is full of the sweet sounds of laughter, and I couldn't imagine having it any other way.

Fisher-Price is very excited about the launch of their new Laugh & Learn site! It’s a fun place on the Fisher-Price website  that offers webisodes, fun games and activities, a place where you (well, your little ones) can meet the Laugh & Learn characters, enjoy fun apps and learn about what’s new and upcoming from our favourite brand!

To celebrate the launch of this new site, Fisher-Price is hosting an awesome new contest called the Best Little Laugh! This contest celebrates all those insanely-cute, over-the-top-adorable smiles, giggles and laughs. The contest is quite simple to enter, visit the Best Little Laugh contest, and upload a picture or video of your little one sporting their best smile or laugh. There are many prizes to be awarded. The contest runs until July 15, 2013.

Old Made New with Honey Nut Cheerios Hearty Oat Crunch #HNCHeartyOatCrunch

Upcycling has always played a huge role in my life. My Dad has always been big on taking something old and making it new. Whether it was antique furniture or building a new car from old parts, my Dad was always on the case. Refinishing it and giving it the extra pizzazz it needs. He thrived off of these upcycling projects. I can't blame him. I always loved seeing the revamped masterpieces that he created.

Just last year my husband and I took on many new projects of our own; taking something old and making it new. We began these projects when we made the decision to jump ship, take the plunge and buy a brand new home. Our last home had a laundry room on the main floor, as opposed to having a powder room. We had a home with just two upstairs bathrooms. It wasn't convenient and we knew that in order to sell we needed to renovate. We found ourselves moving the existing laundry room to the basement, and converting the main floor laundry room to a powder room. The renovation process took a while, but it paid off in the long run.

There are so many ways that you can convert something old to something new. Pinterest is a great way to find inspiration for these types of projects.

One project I would like to do in the near future is reupholstering my kitchen chairs. The fabric on the existing chairs has gotten so grotty since having children. It's time for a revamp!

Even General Mills is jumping on board with the trend of taking something old and making it new. Would you believe that Honey Nut Cheerios has received a face lift? At first I was weary of the idea until I tried a box of Honey Nut Cheerios Hearty Oat Crunch, and then I was sold!

Honey Nut Cheerios Hearty Oat Crunch celebrates the classic Honey Nut Cheerios you know and love while also mixing it up with crispy oat flakes and delicious nut clusters. Truly a hearty cereal that will satisfy your morning! I may be known to snack on this cereal quite often during the day. It truly is delicious.

Honey Nut Cheerios Hearty Oat Crunch will arrive on store shelves on June 24, 2013.
