Yoplait Kids Get Active prize pack GIVEAWAY

I have been given the opportunity to try out Yoplait Kids yogurt. Funny thing is that I have been purchasing Yoplait yogurt since my girls were William's age. In those days they called them Yumsters. There is something about that smooth & creamy texture that is very appealing to kids (and also to mom). I really love the fact that my child is getting his much needed calcium and vitamin D in a very delicious way. We all know how important calcium is for building strong bones! Also Yoplait kids yogurt has 25% less sugar than the average leading kids yogurts.

Look at little yogurt mouth :)

I really love the fact that Dora the Explorer along with her friends are featured characters on the containers. I think this really adds to the "kid-friendly" nature of this product. Another plus is that Yoplait Kids offers the Box Tops for Education coupons on the outer packaging.

Along with sampling the yogurt, I received this fantastic Get Active prize pack which includes a travel cooler (to take your yogurt on the road), a jump rope, a water bottle and an outdoor game set that includes a beach ball, paddle ball, Jai-Ali and a Frisbee. These items are great for outdoor play and help encourage children to stay active and healthy. I know my family will enjoy these items for the Spring and Summer.

Vent Day Wednesday

Well it's Vent Day Wednesday today. Enjoy the video and don't forget to hit us up in the comments to tell us your vents.

Yesterday evening was an exceptional one. Our family went to see our daughter accept an award for being a South Carolina Junior Scholar. She scored very high on the PSAT and is in the top 2% of our state for academics. Is was just awesome seeing all of those intelligent young people there being honored for their achievement. They are our future physicians, scientists, engineers, chefs, and the sky's the limit! Each student received an official award along with a pin.

Look at my grown up looking girl!

I actually got in a photo this time! I am always the one taking them.

This is Chardie with one of our local news anchors Stewart Moore of WIS news. He was the keynote speaker at the ceremony. Chardie threatened to take his job! Her dream is to be a news anchor locally and then for CNN. The photo came out bad because someone I know had the camera. I guess you can't take extra time to adjust the camera settings while you have a local celeb waiting so I will give him a break this time.

We are so proud of Chardonnay and we know she will go far in life :)

I unfortunately had to learn this the hard way. If you have opted to receive follow-up comments to a post from Momfiles you might get one in a foreign language. Please delete it immediately. My blog was spammed last night so I had to add word verification today. I apologize for any inconvenience. To protect our readers from receiving any more unsolicited email I will also enable the comment moderation function. Comments will no longer immediately show up until I approve them. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding. Since we are on the subject, has this ever happened to you?

Saturday's v-ball tourney

We spent Saturday in North Augusta for Chardie's volleyball tournament. It was a long but really good day. Chardie's team won first place in the Bronze division, not exactly Gold status but it is always great to place first in any division! The team was so excited and here are some photos of the day.

William was SO well behaved and all the parents were bragging about the fact that he was so quiet. Yeah, that was just because he was surrounded by women and girls all day!

Here is Willie with Brie before the first match.

William and Chardie

This is what it looks like when we have to pack up to go to an out-of-town event. ALL of that stuff belongs to our family. It was like home away from home! Beverage anyone??

Chardie and a few teammates just goofing around.

The victory "T"!!

Willie's birthday photos

I promised some birthday boy photos so here they are. William was a bit under the weather so he really was not smiling. As a matter of fact, I don't think I got even one shot with him smiling! Here's how his evening started. A nice nap...
