There Is An Elf On The Loose In My House #ElfMagic

December 5, 2013 by Stefani Tolson 22 Comments

For the last couple years I have been entertained during the Christmas holiday with photos that my friends publish of silly elfs hiding in their houses. This year I couldn’t stand it, I had my daughter Hannah write a letter to Santa and ask him to send an Elf to our house too. This is my favorite time of the year so why not add a little fun…

In just a few days after Hannah wrote Santa her request for an elf letter, Erich the elf arrived!

When the kids first found Erich, they didn’t find him in the box. He was actually hiding up on the mantel of our fireplace waiting for them Thankgiving morning.

Here is a little information about Erich the Elf and the Elf Magic Tradition.

Elf Magic is the timeless Christmas-Elf tradition that has created special memories for countless children and families around the world for decades. When considering Christmas traditions that bring the season to life, it’s natural to conjure up stories of Santa… Well, the Elf Magic Elves have something different in mind! Through the years, Elf Magic Elves and families have created lasting memories of the Elfcapade® adventures together. Children young and old look forward to the annual visits from the adventurous Elves, but it is the bond of friendship that is created with the Elves that the family will remember and treasure forever.

Santa allows his Elves to visit so they can encourage an upbeat Christmas, animated through nightly adventures and daily play. Santa wants the Elves to help children create memories, have “good old-fashioned” fun, and reinforce the true meaning of Christmas and family values.

Our little Elf Erich has been having fun hiding each night. In the morning my two youngest have been so excited to find him. Sometimes Erich even has a little surprise for them. Erich came with a little pouch and has given them crayons and some healthy snacks.

Erich right now is hiding in our Christmas tree and the kids have no idea where he is at. Erich is taking a little break. 🙂

Winter Clothes Deals At #OshKoshBgosh + 25% OFF Coupon

November 25, 2013 by Stefani Tolson 11 Comments

“I participated in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for OshKosh B’gosh. I received a gift card to facilitate my shopping trip and to thank me for participating.”

I remember when I was a kid my mom buying me Osh Kosh B’Gosh overalls. When I became a mom and started buying clothes for my children, I have always loved clothes from the Osh Kosh B’gosh brand. They have the cutest clothes for both boys and girls through size 12.

Since my son was in need of some new winter clothes, my husband and I took a trip to the Osh Kosh B’gosh store at our local outlets. When we walked in I was a little excited. I seen lots of sales and clearance racks which means SAVINGS to me! Instead of finding all the good deals, the friendly employee at the store helped us find some really good deals to make my $100 Gift Card I had to spend go a long way.

My son loves the color red, so he was excited to see this new red Osh Kosh B’gosh hoodie along with some cute bottoms. The hoodie was on sale for only $12 and the boys woven bottoms were only $11.99. I thought this was a DEAL!

My son’s FAVORITE color is blue and couldn’t wait to try on this cute blue long sleeve flannel with his new pants. He normally doesn’t like wearing long sleeve shirts but says he can’t wait to wear this one to school.

As soon as my husband seen the pea coats, he had to grab one for my son. My son has fun modeling his new jacket for mom but I made him take it off before he got it dirty. This will definitely be something I can have him wear when I want him to dress to impress.

These are just a few of the items that I bought. For just a little over $100, I was able to get 2 hoodies, 2 shirts, pants, a pea coat and even some cute socks. Be sure to check out the holiday mailer to see what cute winter clothes you can score your children.

I enjoyed shopping at Osh Kosh B’gosh and definitely have plans to make another trip soon. Right now there is a holiday coupon that you can PRINT to SAVE 25% OFF any purchases of $30 or more.
