My girls love to accessorize . . . everything! Not only do they love to adorn themselves with earrings, bracelets and various hair accessories, they love decorating their notebooks, backpacks and purses! That’s why I was psyched to discover a product created by two moms from Oregon called PakNaks.

PakNaks are decorative accessories that transform plain backpacks, bags and other stuff into personalized, ever-changing, colorful works of art without any ironing, sewing or pinning! Unlike stickers, you don’t have to worry about these decorations tearing, wearing out or coming off.  PakNaks are weather-resistant and adhere to things with self-adhesive Velcro. That way you can interchange your PakNaks whenever you want!

And PakNaks aren’t just for girls either! There are 40+ designs, including various animals and sports themed ones.

If your kids like to decorate their belongings, this is the giveaway for you!

Momsational is giving away three sets of PakNaks! Each set includes four different PakNaks that every kid will love!

Don’t want to wait to get some PakNaks? You can save 10% when you buy some at PakNak.com by entering the coupon code PAK10 at checkout.

There are so many movies, so little time! That’s why I’m glad movies are released on DVD so quickly because I didn’t get a chance to see Disney’s Beverly Hills Chihuahua when it was in the theaters.  If you too wanted to see this movie with the voice talents of Drew Barrymore and Andy Garcia, this is the giveaway for you!

Momsational is giving away two copies of the newly released Beverly Hills Chihuahua DVD!

For even more Beverly Hills Chihuahua fun, play this lost and found game!

One of my favorite all time movies is Pretty Woman starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. It’s one of those movies that I watch whenever it comes on and I can recite most of the dialogue! However, the copy I own is on VHS. Which of course does me no good because we no longer have a VCR! If you too love the movie Pretty Woman and want to see it in the best quality available,  this is the giveaway for you!

This last weekend, I had the chance to go to SeaWorld thanks to them and IZEA. I haven’t been to SeaWorld since I was probably ten years old. Any chance to get out of Chicago in February is a good one, but to SeaWorld?! I was saying “SQUEEEE!!!!!” for weeks until the day to leave arrived.

I almost feel bad about how much fun we had on this trip – I don’t really want to rub it in. But we got the VIP tour of the park with front of the line ride access, lunch with the Sharks, dolphin petting and feeding (OMG), and center-stage seats for the Shamu Believe show. I normally try to put some kind of ‘constructive criticism’ into my review posts to keep them real. But this trip? Flawless.

I asked one of our tour guides how much the park has changed in the last 30 years. I knew it was a lot, but didn’t expect her to say, “Hmmm… well, I think the Penguin Experience was here back then. But that would be it”. But if you think the reason they invited us is because of all the new stuff they have added over the years, you would be wrong.

They invited us because of The Manta. I seriously can’t do this ride justice in a post. Ted comes close in this video of our hard hat tour of the construction of this unbelievably cool new roller coaster:

The Manta is opening in May of 2009. And someone who enters this giveaway is going to be one of the first people to ride it!

I love having a camera phone because I never have to miss capturing a moment if I forget to bring along my digital camera. However, I have to admit, I’m not completely impressed with the quality of the photos my camera phone takes.
