You have to check out this site — from Everyone.   It is the first site I have seen that helps you with the tedious task of buying a group gift.  The gifts they offer are gift cards from national retailers.  But, the best part is how easy the process is: First, you select a gift card from the popular brand-name stores. Next, you gather addresses and emails and invite contributors via the site’s email form.  Finally, you activate your group gift by making the initial contribution and you’re done. Then, on the designated day, after everyone has had time to donate, the gift is on its way.

The Love this Life tees have a great message and are favorites of my husband.  They are simple and comfortable, yet make a statement.

Gift Idea: For the husband, friend or dad in your life. 

They also have fun tank tops for women and tees for kids!

One of my new favorite gifts to give are the “Make Your Own Books”  from Scribble Press.   Scribble Press is a “place to write, illustrate and publish original books.”   Each book prompts you with cues and blanks on each page to create your story. They are very simple, but they give the child a real sense of pride in making their own book.  

My son makes his own books with regular paper stapled together all the time, but he LOVES making these books even more! We purchased one for Father’s Day and my son created a wonderful book for his Dad.  And, of course we had to purchase the “if i were a superhero” book.   

I also love the idea of the “when i was your age” book.  It will be my turn to have a little fun.

We are so excited that PeaceLoveMom has come out with some great new colors and designs for the Fall and Winter.  We are a huge fan of their short sleeve tees as they are cozy, comfortable and fit perfectly, but also love the thermal tees for Fall!  These  are really great quality !  

So, if you are looking for some new Fall tees, start here!   These are also GREAT GIFTS: for your mom or your Mom-friends.  I have already given a few myself!

If you haven’t been to Jane Marvel’s website recently (or ever), you should go now.  It has a great collection of 17 stylish, fun bags – from computer bags to cosmetic bags to shopping bags to overnight bags. Each of the bags are vegan-friendly and virtually waterproof as they are made of lightweight laminated canvas.  So great for moms on the go –- easy to clean, stylish and affordable! 

Gift Idea – great as a gift for a sister or best friend (or wife, hint!).

Our favorites include the Jitney and the All Day Long.  See Jane! Go Jane Go!
