I don’t know if you have heard, but there is two awesome deals going on at Arby’s.  Awesome food and a sweepstakes, but not just any sweepstakes a totally awesome one.  First let’s talk about the Good Mood Food just getting better.  

I have always loved Arby’s Roast Beef sandwich, it’s super yummy.  Now I cannot wait to have a cheat day from my diet, because when I do I’m going to Arby’s for one of the KING’S HAWAIIAN Roast Beef sandwiches.  I’m not sure which one, OH YES THERE IS TWO!  Check this out!

Served hot, and made fresh just the way we like them are TWO new Arby’s KING’S HAWAIIAN roast beef sandwich.  You can choose from the Arby’s KING’S HAWAIIAN Roast Beef sandwich.  This bad boy comes with an extra helping of freshly slices roast beef, piled high on a soft and slightly sweet KING’S HAWAIIAN bun.  Then we have the Arby’s KING’S HAWAIIAN Roast Bee and Swiss.  This sandwich has the same extra helping of roast beef and KING’S HAWAIIAN bun, but it’s topped with yummy Swiss cheese, crunchy pickles and the creamy Dijon spread. 

Are you thinking what I am thinking?  Okay, meet you at Arby’s in twenty after I enter the Sweepstakes right.  So let’s get on with it so we can hurry over to Arby’s!

To celebrate the awesome partnership, Arby’s is hosting an awesome Hawaiian Getaway Sweepstakes.  See I told you it was amazing!  Customers will have a chance to surf in paradise.  The grand prize winner will receive a round trip for two with four nights stay in Honolulu, HI.  Plus get a premium group lesion at one of the islands premier surf schools, Hawaiian Fire. 

But if you plan on entering you better jump on it!  The Hawaiian Getaway Sweepstakes runs from April 29^th until May 26^th.

Okay, see you at Arby’s.  Which sandwich will you be choosing, if I beat you there I will have it waiting!

There is this Happy Island called Aruba!  I’m sure most of you have heard about Aruba, but do you know some things to do in Aruba?  There’s so many things, it’s making me get the travel bug.  Now, I want to head for Aruba.  If you’re thinking of traveling to Aruba I’m jealous, but I am also going to share a few family friendly things to do in Aruba.

Its summer, and I don’t know about you but I start thinking about vacations with the family.  There is nothing that I would rather do than spend time with my family on a stress-free vacation.  Oh sure, there’s the small things.  You know, if we travel by car I can count on the fact that someone will need to stop everyone hour for the restroom, or that someone will complain because someone else is breathing on them. 

Seriously, when I’m headed for vacation that’s nothing I can handle all of it with a smile, until they set in with the “are we there yet.” OMG, which drives me nuts I have a toddler and 7 year old that do it just to drive mom bonkers.  It’s still worth it, because when we stop the car for something fun I can make them stay in the car, lol.  Okay, I wouldn’t do that but I sure will tell them I will.  That will get them to stop, maybe.  Anyway, I have something really fun to share with you.  I hope you’re super excited, I know I am.

If you’re thinking of heading to the happy island, and looking for things to do in Aruba I think you will enjoy these activates. 

Horseback rides on the beach: Who doesn’t want to ride a horse on the beaches of Aruba?  How much fun.

Walks on the beach: There is nothing that helps clear your mind better that a walk on the beach.

Hiking: You can explore twenty miles of trails in the awesome Arikok National Park

Golf: If you love golf that I’m sure you’re going to be checking out the course in Aruba.

Tour the island: Jump in an air conditioned motor coach or head out on a jeep sapphire. 

Watch the water: No, this is not crazy.  The sea in Aruba is known for its calm, glittering turquoise waters.  How relaxing, sitting on the beach, listening and watching the beach that looks like that. WOW!  Did you know that Aruba’s beaches have wide shaded expanses, retreats, and sunbathing and water sports meccas?  There’s the seven mile strip that along the west coast that includes resorts and plenty of fun activates to keep you busy. 

Get in the water: Enjoy swimming, kitesurfing, tubing, snorkeling, waterskiing, parasailing, banana-boating, and more all at the Aruba beaches.

Visit the underdeveloped beaches: Not all the beaches of Aruba are packed with things to do.  You can also visit the underdeveloped beaches of Aruba.  You will find coves that are carved out of limestone, which have been formed by the crashing of the waves.  There is a strong under town on these beaches, so you might want to consider this before jumping in, but it can be something worth seeing. 

Shopping: There is plenty of shopping to be done, and even discounts of 10 – 35% off international brand names.  There is jewelry store-lined streets, upscale malls, and so much more. 

Food: You will not have a problem finding somewhere to eat.  Aruba is known for its abundance of restaurants with world class chefs, and amazing wines.  There is more than 100 resort and independent restaurants, the largest issue you will run into is where to eat.

Events: There is plenty of events in Aruba, the calendar is filled with food and music festivals, traditional holiday celebration, international tournaments, Caribbean festivals, films, art, competitions, regattas, sporting events, and so much more fun.

Nightlife: Be sure to spend some time checking out the fun nightlife.  Enjoy casual beach and pier bars, and be sure to take advantage of their daily happy hours, and other awesome specials.  There’s plenty to do, I’m sure you will have fun.

If you’re looking for things to do in Aruba I personally think you’ll be fine.  You’re probably going to worry more about how much you can fit in, rather than what to do.

There’s this really awesome sweepstakes going on over on Instagram.  I recently submitted three pictures too.  The Sweepstakes is called Splash of Color, and whoever win will win a “Splash of Color” Price Package and a shopping spree from Crocs.  Pretty awesome right? 

I thought it was fun. The Crocs Instagram Sweepstakes ends on 5/20 and all participants have a chance to win a $3000 shopping spree for entering.  I entered because it sounds like a fun Sweepstakes, I love Instagram, and I sure would love to win a $3000 shopping spree!  Who wouldn’t, plus I get to share my fun pictures tagged with #splashofcolor, and you’re allowed to upload up to 3 photos a day.

I wanted to share the three pictures I uploaded with you, in hopes you will just love them and give them a vote.  I didn’t add anything that was bright and colorful, I added things that added a splash of color to my life.  Let me show you:

First I added a picture of our trip to Disney World in Florida, I just love this picture and it brings back some awesome memories and will for many years to come. 

Next I added my husband and I in our awesome 3D glasses.  What’s more colorful than looking at a 3D move with 3D Glasses?  Nobody even care how nerdy they look, because everything is awesome in 3D.  Oh, that and your husband always looks like a bigger nerd than you, lol.

Last I added this picture of my oldest daughter and youngest daughter eating lunch at the little princess table.  I will never forget how excited my little Mattie was to have her big, awesome, cool, amazing sister Catie sit with her, lol.  Okay, that and how “cool” Catie looks sitting there.  I have to admit, she is the coolest sister I know!  Like it, click here to comment on it for me.

These are all pictures that have added a spash of color to my life, they are times in my life that I will never forget thanks to the spash of colors in the pictures, and I'm thankful for each of those memories.  

Leave me a comment, and let me know what you think about my Crocs Instagram Sweepstakes Spash of Color picutres!

I have to tell you about this awesome giveaway going on!  I just know you're going to love it, but before I get started there is a few things I wanted to share with you.  I just cannot help it, when there is anything as awesome as this I have to share it.  You know me, love to share new things that I find.

Do you love color, fun, simple, and unique designs when it comes to things for your home.  I’m talking about everything from furniture to lighting.  I have been over checking out the CB2 and Novogratz Collection.  Which I have to say is amazing, I cannot even put into words how much I love some of their stuff.  Seriously, you will see I’m going to post plenty of pictures of things I find awesome!  Before I get started let me tell you a little about CB2!

The CB2 family is super excited for everyone to check out their latest collection.  They are a husband and wife design duo named Robert and Cortney Novogratz, and they sure do have some talent.   They have an awesome mix of modern with vintage and it’s totally awesome and unpredictable.  Their latest collection was released on May 2^nd, and this collection was inspired by their vacation home in Brazil.  Now this collection is packed with hot colors mixed into warm wood, and it just creates the perfect products.  You can also find tons of different products and a range of prices. 

Okay, so my favorite would be the Figueira Indoor/Outdoor Swing Chair.  OMG, I don’t know what else to say other than I WANT ONE!  My birthday is coming up, so I am thinking maybe if I hint enough my husband will get it for me.  I would love to see that on my front deck, I would love to hang out in it while I watch my daughter play in the front yard in the mornings.  WOW, it looks comfy and super unique which is what I love!  I have never seen anything else like it. 

All their items are super unique, which I appreciate.  The last thing I ever want to worry about is visiting a friend and noticing we have the same stuff, lol.  I live in a small town, and only shop online or out of town for this reason.  I can name about 5 people with the same sofa.  You will not catch me in that mix, nope I want to be originally and stand out.  Which is why I have really come to love so many items at CB2.

To make things really awesome, did you know that you and three friends could win a trip to stay at the vacation home of CB2?  Yes, it’s true you can win a trip to stay in Bob and Courtney Novogratz home in beautiful Trancoso, Brazil.  It gets better, there is more winners!

TEN other super lucky winners will receive a CB2 gift card valued at $100 along with a personally signed copy of the book “Home by Novogratz”.  Now tell me that is amazing!  You better hurry and enter, you can enter until June 3^rd!  I know you still have a little time, but you don’t want to wait on something this awesome. 

I already entered, man I would love to win that trip! Don't miss it hurry and enter the CB2 and Novogratz Brasil Sweepstakes.
