Santa’s Dog and Bandana Giveaway

If you caught me on social media in September, you might have seen a post about Santa’s Dog. This book was written by JoAnn Sky and illustrated by Ed Koehler. JoAnn has offered up an awesome giveaway for my readers 🙂

Santa’s Dog is a rhyming story about the adventures of Santa’s best dog, Lance. He falls from the sleigh on Christmas Eve and is taken in by the animal shelter and then brought home by a military family who needs some help as Dad is called to serve his country. When Christmas Eve comes, Lance must decide whether to return to the North Pole with Santa or stay with the family.

Santa’s Dog is perfect for all children, dog lovers, and military families.

JoAnn Sky is an award-winning author who writes adult contemporary romance, young adult romance, and children’s stories. Originally from the midwest, JoAnn lives in Northern Nevada with her family and three crazy rescue dogs. 

Now for the giveaway. We will be giving away TWO copies of the book Santa’s Dog, each one with a bandana. One will be red, one will be green.

LuLaRoe Review and Giveaway

March 10, 2016 by Julie 8 Comments

LuLaRoe Giveaway

Have you heard of LuLaRoe? It’s a new direct sales company and it is gaining more and more popularity every day. I was recently able to review my first LuLaRoe item and I am very excited to share what I think with you. I will also be offering a giveaway for your own LuLaRoe set. Yay!

I was sent the Irma Tunic and a pair of leggings to go with it. This is the first time I have ever seen LuLaRoe in person. I have heard a lot of great things about the clothing and how soft and comfortable the clothing is. I was not disappointed. My leggings are SO soft. I love it. I have regular yoga pants but these are something else altogether. They are soft and fit well. The tunic was a pretty color of teal and is also very comfortable.

lularoe

LuLaRoe was created by a woman by the name of DeAnne Stidham. She was a single mom and wanted to be able to be home with her kids and still make an income. She started liquidating end of season dresses to friends and family and LuLaRoe grew from there.

This is from the main LuLaRoe website…

I believe in you and you can do it are the basic principles guiding LuLaRoe today. The ethos of the company was borne out of DeAnne’s desire to share her experiences and to provide her family and others a foundation for personal success.

LuLaRoe exists to provide an opportunity for people to create freedom by selling comfortable, affordable, stylish clothing, and offering its consultants the independence to set their own pace and schedule. This creates the time to spend with those closest to them, the very thing DeAnne had once desired for herself!

I was given my LuLaRoe for review by Alexandra Lewis. She has her own group on Facebook that you must join.

LLR-Product-Description-Irma

 

LLR-Product-Description-Leggings

The thing to know about this company is that there is a limited supply of every print. The consultants carry the inventory and that is how you shop for what you want. That is why you should join her group if you are interested. It is the way to buy the prints that you want. She can also help you look for certain prints that might be hard to find.

Now for the giveaway. Alexandra will be giving away one “mystery outfit,” Irma and leggings to one of my readers. You would just let her know the size that you need.

I have been a fan of Michael W. Smith’s music for a very long time. That is why I was excited to hear about his latest album, Sovereign!

Here is his brand new video for the song Sky Spills Over, one of the songs from the album.

“I’m really passionate about the song SKY SPILLS OVER. It was fun creating it in the studio and I’ve been overwhelmed at the response it gets when we perform it live every night. My son Ryan is a really talented filmmaker so I always enjoy working with him on a project. But what made this project even more special was that 3 of my own grandkids were in the video. This video was a lot of fun to make. I hope people enjoy it!” Michael W. Smith

Want to win a copy of his newest album? Just enter the Rafflecopter below…

Beef Hearty Hickory Farms Gift Box Review and Giveaway

December 14, 2013 by Julie 26 Comments

Disclosure of Material Connection: I received one or more of the products or services mentioned below for free in the hope that I would mention it on my blog. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”

Hickory Farms Gift Box

It’s that time of year again! You know, the time of year when you probably have some time off just to relax as a family. Just some time to chill at home. Our family is really looking forward to doing some of that around Christmas this year. We love to have snack foods to munch on and Hickory Farms is one of our favorites.

This year I will be doing a review on their Beef Hearty Hickory Gift Box. In this box you will receive:

2 -Our Signature Beef Summer Sausage 5 oz.
-Smoked Cheddar Blend 4 oz.
-Farmhouse Cheddar 4 oz.
-Golden Toasted Crackers .9 oz.
-2 -Sweet Hot Mustard 1.25 oz.

Everything you need to have some yummy snack food around to munch on during Christmas and the holiday season. This is also something you might want to bring to a Christmas or a New Year’s Eve party.

I am saving most of my box for after my husband returns from his deployment. I know he loves to snack on this kind of stuff. My oldest son got excited about the cheese when I opened up the box. I love the taste of the beef summer sausage!

The great thing about Hickory Farms is that they will ship select products for free to APO/FPO military addresses. I always love it when companies do this for our Military 🙂

About Soldier’s Wife, Crazy Life

 

Welcome to Soldier’s Wife, Crazy Life! I am so glad you are here.

My name is Julie and I first became a military spouse in 2005 when my husband of 3 years re-joined the Army. Then, in 2014, he joined the National Guard. In January of 2024, he retired from the National Guard after 21 years of service.

During our time in the military, we got to spend 4 years in Germany as well as Tennessee where we now call home.

We have three boys and have been through four deployments together.

I hope that you can find support for your own deployments, PCS moves, or anything else military life brings you through my articles and social media posts.
