Utah's Hogle Zoo African Savanna Exhibit ...



My hubby and I had a BLAST at Utah’s Hogle Zoo! When we got there we raced right over to check out the new African Savanna Exhibit...


The African Savanna is a new 4.5 acre, mixed-species exhibit featuring giraffe, zebra, nyala, ostrich and four majestic African lions!


Rolling grasslands, dotted with trees allow the hoofed animals to mix and mingle at watering holes – much like they would in the wild.

Now, Africa is closer than you think! We loved that we could experience tongue-to-hand encounters through their public giraffe feedings... 

Our very favorite were the lions! Check out the super cool pictures we were lucky enough to get...


The female lions are so beautiful! We had fun watching them play together. Did you know you can hear a lion's roar from up to 5 miles away? We got to hear the males loud roar and it was really awesome!






Lions’ Hill features heated concrete, cool grottos, and atop the hill, perfect rock perches mighty enough for the king of beasts – two males, two females. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring guests nose-to-nose with the piercing golden eyes of these magnificent predators with the Wasatch Mountains serving as a picturesque backdrop. The lion demonstration area is presented by the Les Schwab Tire Centers.



My family is super excited that the famous Zoofari Express is back! The new C.P. Huntington replica is great. We like the wider, deeper train cars and enjoyed our train ride wrapping between the grasslands and Lions’Hill.

The African Savanna Exhibit is fascinating! We spent many hours there and even went back again at the end of our visit since we love it so much.

Next, we headed over to see the cute elephants! I remember going to the Zoo when I was a little girl with my dear Grandma. She would always buy me a ticket to ride the elephant. :) I absolutely love the elephants and had fun watching them!




After all of this excitement my hubby (big kid) was ready for his afternoon snack...



The carousel was also a lot of fun...


My hubby loves eagles, so he was happy to be able to get his picture taken in this eagle's nest...


My hubby and I really had a fantastic time. Thank you so very much for everything Utah's Hogle Zoo!

Make sure and also visit Utah's Hogle Zoo on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube!

We can't wait until our precious granddaughter is born so next time we can take her with us to the zoo! It's also wonderful that the zoo is open every day of the year except Christmas and New's Year Day. Make sure and plan a visit, it's an incredible experience that you will not want to miss!

PrintKeg Review and Giveaway...


Thanks to PrintKeg, my family is super excited to tell you about their custom t-shirts!

As soon as our package came everyone ran to see the fun shirts we received...



My son and his soon-to-be wife really like their new shirts! They say "Colby's babe" and "Kayrene's hunk". 



The bright red color is awesome! I have always thought matching couples t-shirts are cool.

Next, my hubby loves golfing! We had a ton of fun making him some custom golf shirts...



My family loves how soft these shirts feel on. We are also very impressed with how high quality they are. They are not only comfy, but they all fit perfect. PrintKeg also gives you the option to have tag-less shirts. These are great because my hubby has sensitive skin and tags in shirts always irritate his skin.


Whenever he wears this shirt, people are always commenting on it and he gets lots of attention.

It was a blast creating our own shirts and super easy! We really like that PrintKeg uses the latest in direct-to-garment technology.


PrintKeg™ is owned and operated by a little design and print firm in South Carolina. They offer printing of posters, flyers, postcards, t-shirts, newsletters, books, stationery and much more. 


While searching for a way onto the online market, they noticed that most online printers were either expensive for small orders or didn't offer small orders at all. Why order one thousand brochures if you only need three hundred? They knew they could provide a high quality product at unbelievable rates compared to the competition.

Thank you so very much PrintKeg for the amazing products and customer service!!


Now here's the really exciting part...

I get to give 3 lucky winners a custom t-shirt!!

Tuggo Dog Toy Review and Giveaway...



Thanks to Tuggo, my family is super excited to tell you about their amazing products!

The Tuggo is a new one-of-a-kind dog toy that uses weight to provide tension for dogs. The design is a hard, hollow plastic ball with a rope going through the middle that can be pulled from either side providing the tug-of-war effect.

We received some of Tuggo's 10 inch balls with 4 ft rope...



We really like that these balls have a recessed screw cap allowing the ball to be filled with water. Once fully filled with water, the Tuggo weighs approximately 20 pounds. This weight provides the tension that helps promote exercise and build muscle.

Rue and Diesel love their new Tuggo toys...



Another cool thing, the water inside the ball makes a sloshing sound when the ball is being played with. This keeps your dog interested in the Tuggo for hours! 


Not only can you fill TUGGO with water, but you can leave it empty and take to the lake or pool! We love the different fun colors they come in... 


It's great to find toys that are durable enough for large dogs to play with. 



The rope on both sides is great so they both can play together at the same time!



It makes my heart sing to see them both so happy and playing together.


We are really impressed with the high quality of the toys and highly recommend them!

Check out the video below...

 

The Tuggo was invented by a former MTSU student, Adam Harrington. Adam wanted to give his dogs something to keep them entertained and save his wallet. His dog kept constantly tearing up every ball be bought. Adam came up with the idea to invent a dog toy that would be destruction resistant while promoting exercise and building muscle.

Thank you so very much Tuggo for the amazing products and customer service!!


Now here's the really exciting part...

I get to give one lucky winner a Tuggo 10 inch ball with 4 ft rope in choice of color!!

The formula lets you treat stains now and wash up to a week later. It's safe for all colorfast washables and works in all temperatures.


When we are out in the yard working on projects sometimes we need a little help with stains. I love the brush this comes with that helps me get out even the toughest stains!

Military Costume Review...



Thanks to Wholesale Halloween Costumes, I got a fabulous costume for this year! 

I was super impressed with how fast my package came! Check out how awesome this costume looks...


The color is a really pretty blue that I love. It's great that the belt is adjustable and the skirt has an elastic waist. I am really happy that it not only looks gorgeous, but it's also very comfortable.

This costume is high quality, fits great and looks very classy on! I was excited to get this and can't wait to wear it. This Halloween my hubby and I are going to look awesome. I know everyone is going to love our costumes.

Now we just need fun ideas of what we will hand out to trick-or-treaters. Maybe small packages of peanuts or pretzels like you get on a plane? Please leave a comment of any other ideas you have.



This company has excellent Military costumes for women! I found it very interesting reading about how women have over 400 years of history in the Military. You can read all about women serving in different wars with the following link: history of military women.

More about the costume:

This fantastic WW2 Air Force Female Adult Captain Costume is an authentic style uniform. It features a jacket, skirt, mock shirt, tie, and belt. The jacket and skirt are blue. The jacket buttons down the front and has four pocket flaps. There's rank on the sleeve and gold wings on the chest. The mock shirt front is white and the tie is a women's military style with a pin on the front center. The belt buckles around the waist. During World War II there were just over a thousand Women Airforce Service Pilots—the first women to fly military aircraft in the U.S. These women paved the way for future generations and you can honor them by wearing the WW2 Air Force Female Adult Captain Costume.

Looking for a reasonable costume from an amazing company? Look no further Wholesale Halloween Costumes has many perfect costumes to pick from! My family loves the adorable newborn costumes they have also. I can't wait to order one for my new granddaughter that is coming this August! 

Company Overview:
We are the only website in the world that sells costumes at wholesale prices. There is never a membership fee or strings attached. Shop with us like you would on any typical website. The only difference is the low, low wholesale price. You'll find the best selection of Halloween costumes for the entire family right here.
