Loving Tender Care for your Hair - Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Giveaway!!

This is to help my BFF +Ruth Patton and get 5 entries because its an awesome giveaway

Loving Tender Care for your Hair - Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Giveaway!!

If you are a regular follower of my blog, you will know that I have 4 girls and 1 boy...Yup, 5 kids!!

When this Vidal Sassoon package arrived at our house, I had to HIDE the evidence...because, if I didn't, then I would have lost (and not been able to try) the Vidal Sassoon products that came:-s

Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Moisture Lock Shampoo, Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Moisture Lock Conditioner, Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost and Lift Foaming Air Mousse, Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Repair and Finish Spray, Vidal Sassoon The Mega Firm Hold Gel

My favourite product from this line is the Moisture Lock Shampoo and Conditioner.  I love how my hair feels after my shower, revitalized and refreshed!  I am almost ready to share these with my girls, and I am pretty sure my oldest will like the Repair and Finish Spray along with the Boost and Lift Foaming Air Mousse.

The Moisture Lock Shampoo cleanses and quenches hair’s thirst, while the Moisture Lock Conditioner helps to seal in moisture, leaving hair soft and silky. The rich moisturizing formula helps prevent dry or damaged-looking hair, leaving it noticeably smooth and irresistible to the touch.  

The Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse contains a foam technology that helps control unruly hair for a fashionably weightless and pumped up feeling. This formula provides up to 24 hours of flexible hold, long lasting volume and is easy to comb out.

The Repair & Finish Spray creates a conditioning shield to help protect your hair and restore smoothness. The formula helps protect damaged hair from breakage while helping to seal in style and taming flyaways.

The Mega Firm Hold Gel provides a strong hold, allowing for perfect and customized control for up to 24 hours. This professionally inspired formula helps lock out frizz, while smoothing hair to keep your style all day.

I have one of these prize packs (worth app. $44) to giveaway here on my blog

Merry Christmas Everyone Its been a busy 2012 Arrianna is 10 in Grade 5 and doing awesome, she always put her best foot forward.

She had and awesome summer of traveling - Aunty Christine and Grandma were on the go with her taking her all over Hamilton and Grandma and Arrianna even ventured into downtown Toronto on the GO train. Thanks to them I had a relaxing week with Jerrell home only, Keshaun was at an overnight camp at the same time as Arrianna.  Keshaun is 8 just till January that is, and in grade 3 and he is still our #1 Sports fan, He and cousin Evan had a great time hanging out in Hamilton, and the award for Best Great Auntie goes to Christine for giving up a bunch of her vacation days to help me out with Summer vacay child care. While the older boys were having fun Jerrell and I went to The R.O.M. to see the Dinosaur Exhibit, we parked at Yorkdale Subway Station and rode the subway and street cars just for fun (Royal Ontario Museum for my non Ontario readers. We were able to go on our own because Arrianna was away for 10 days in Kentucky on a trip of a lifetime She was selected by her School to go to Tim Horton's Camp! She was picked up at our local Tim Horton's and driven to the Detroit Airport, She was nervous but made it thru!!! Jerrell 6 in grade 1 loves school and my fav part of his school is every week he likes to write on a blank piece of paper all the words he learnt that week. At parent teacher interviews I was impressed when the teacher reported how pleasant and wonderful it is to have Jerrell in her class and that I have nothing to be worried about when it comes to him and learning. Needless to say that night we went for Mcd's his fav for a McFlurry! Jerrell also has found a liking to gymnastics at the YMCA he bounces all the time and climbs my walls and uses the couch arms as beams he flips off of so hopefully getting it out at the Y will channel his energy lol I doubt it highly but one can wish. All the kids have been in swimming for a year or more and are progressing its a fun Friday at the Y for sure!!! Arrianna has learnt to break boards in Karate and its helping with her reaction to aggression as well!!!


 I've enjoyed many moments this year to highlight a few of my own: Blissdom was the best one yet. We signed up for excursions on the last day and I was in my glory driving GM 2013 and 2012 vehicles, My fav was the Camaro of course with my need for speed! We stayed at the Sheraton and had a blast. Another great time away was our friendaversy to Ruth's Aunts place in Quebec, I went to Ottawa and saw the Capitol for the first time. Can you believe I'm 30ish and never been there. It was so cool!!! Even the cats of Parliament Hill were neat. We kidnapped Shannon and took her to Bleuspa for a Scandinavian bath it was the most relaxing place I have ever been. The eucalyptus steam room was amazing. I celebrated 5 years with Christian horizons this year and I still love my job. I love supporting my behavioral guys and one gal, its definitely never dull or boring at my house that I work in. I love that my boss even pointed out at the ceremony luncheon that I am always fun and you know when I have arrived on shift. I do make the house have more energy just be entering the door. That's me tho and I love it. I have made some new friends and have re-united with a few old ones to and I am excited to see what the Lord has in store for me in 2013
