Amazon Prime Day 2019

Amazon Prime Day is coming. On July 15 and 16th, 2019, Amazon holds all kinds of special deals and major steals for a limited time only throughout the two days.

You must be an Amazon Prime member to participate - so now is your chance to SIGN UP! You can even start with a free trial and cancel if it doesn't suit you (after Prime Day, of course) - just remember to set an alarm to cancel after your 30 days.  Prime membership is $119/year, which you'll be charged after your 30 day trial period.

Benefits of being an Amazon Prime member?
So many, but let's start with...

- Free and FAST delivery

- Access to TONS of TV shows, movies and music for free

- Prime wardrobe (try before you buy)

- Exclusive sale days/events... Like Prime Day!

So, what is the deal with Prime Day? It's a global shopping event over two days (expanded from the inaugural one day) of major deals across all categories of things on Amazon. From tech to fashion, to home items to toys; this is the time to stock up for gifts, home, back to school, etc.

The deals come sporadically, so I would recommend you check out the few things that are previewed and click "Watch this Deal" and look for items with the blue "Prime Day deal" badge.

Prime Day Picks:

I will be sharing my favorite deals here - keeping this updated as they launch and sharing on my Amazon it list IG account!

First great deal is already live:
Amazon's electronics are up to 40% off!  This is a great time to scoop up a Kindle, Kid's Fire Tablet (we use these for our kids when we travel), Ring or Alexa!

Fashion picks (such good prices!):

Home decor picks (hello lighting!):

Beauty pics start with Lady Gaga:

Be the first to pre-order from Lady Gaga's new cosmetic line, Haus Laboratories, which is exclusive to Amazon and launches (for pre-orders) on pre-order!

Last minute Father's Day Gifts: Amazon Prime Delivery!

 

Father's day is this Sunday!  Don't forget to spoil your baby's daddy, own fathers and other great men and father figures in your lives! I've rounded up a few things to span multiple interests that are all ready to ship with Prime delivery to get to you in time!
My husband and I both love anything Yeti, and this 30 oz tumbler (comes in multiple colors or stainless steel) is a great way to stay hydrated all summer on the go - and fits in most cup holders!
My husband recently got (for himself...) this ultra slim wallet and was amazed at how much it fits while not being bulky.
Fore the breakfast lover (or breakfast for dinner), I gave this breakfast sandwich maker to my husband last Christmas and he loves it still today. It's so easy to use and clean.
For the DIYer, my husband thinks everyone should have this ratcheting screwdriver!
Breathable shorts with a stretch that feel like athletic shorts (especially great for golfers), but look nice are a must for your athletic guy.
Looking to splurge... the newest Adidas sneaker style is very cool (I want this pair for myself...) for your hip dude.  And for your guy that travels a lot, or wears headphones while he works - these Bose wireless are the ones to get. My husband has had his for awhile and loves them.
Outdoor fun or relaxation? Either way - this Knock Off Toss game is especially fun with beer bottles, and this lightweight hammock can attach between any trees simply.
And for the guy you just can't figure out what to get... an Amazon gift card can physically arrive in a cute Father's Day style so he can get whatever he wants.

A Break from the Sun with Dragons!

 

  After a very cold and snowy winter and then a very wet spring, we threw ourselves into summer as fast as we could.  Parks, picnics, sprinklers, the pool and a lot of SUN just within the first two weeks caused for some very sleepy evenings and much needed afternoon quiet time. My kids don't nap anymore, so we enforce quiet time - which most of the time they complain incessantly about the entire time (so... not very quiet). This past weekend, after pulling them in from the pool for a much needed break from the sun on their fair, fresh from winter skin, I had a surprise for them. 
We are HUGE 'How To Train Your Dragon' fans in our house, watching the first two on repeat. They are movies not only both my kids can agree on (a small feat), but ones that both my husband and I enjoy watching, too. So, now that How To Train Your Dragon 3 is out, we had to do it right.
Walmart has an extra special version - How To Train Your Dragon 3 Walmart Exclusive DVD Gift Set that includes 2 Funko keychains - and with the extra bonus of t-shirts and dragon toys this was a real treat for the kids. We popped some popcorn and all took our rest time immersed in the movie. Liam had already seen this movie in theaters, but it was the first time for the rest of us - and we were all so excited, especially Nora, to see a female dragon!
The movie is full of action, love and friendship, and looking for solutions. I love that the movie includes unconventional leaders and path that is constantly re-assessed as the end goal changes. I think it shows my kids that anyone can step up to be anything they want and challenges along the way doesn't mean it's over. Not to give too much away, I have to say my favorite part was the end. A happy ending for all (though not the one originally envisioned) gave us all a good feeling as we ran back out into the sun!
You can grab the new release of How to Train Your Dragon 3 Walmart Exclusive DVD Gift Set at Walmart today and make those breaks from the great outdoors this early summer a real hit!
