My Favorite Deshedding Tool: Eazee by Foolee #spon

*DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Eazee by Foolee for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 

'Tis the season for dogs to start shedding their extra winter layers and man, oh, man do we have a shedder!  Technically, we have two dogs and neither have long hair, but one has thick hair and sheds like crazy.  This time of year, it's common for me to run the vacuum on our hard floors on a daily basis because there is so much hair floating around.  We've tried other deshedding tools, but our Jessie has some anxiety issues and doesn't really like foreign objects.  After seeing the Eazee by Foolee was advertised as a "gentle" tool, I was excited to try it out.


Unlike ordinary metal deshedding tools, the Eazee features a composite plastic comb with smooth, rounded teeth. So there are no sharp edges that can scratch you or your pet.  This is a huge selling point for me!  When using metal combs, I'm always sure I'm pulling out hair and causing pain...not with Eazee!  Thanks to Eazee’s unique design, there’s no risk of pulling live hair. 


Eazee is just that, easy to use!  It makes deshedding our pups a breeze and even the kiddos enjoy doing it.  This ingenious tool painlessly collects hair while you "brush" and then to dispose of the loose hair you’ve collected, you just pull the button back to eject. Because the tool is constructed from materials with anti-static properties, the hair slides right off.


Jessie loves being groomed with the Eazee by Foolee!  If you have a shedder, you should check this awesome tool out.  It comes in 3 sizes and six colors and is a fantastic pet grooming tool that won't break the bank!

Get the Outdoor Gear You Need with a Monthly Subscription to Alpha Outpost--The Neptune Box Edition #spon

*DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Alpha Outpost for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 

Spring is here on the Texas coast and that means it's time to get outside!  We love doing anything that gets us outside...from fishing to hiking, kayaking to camping, we LOVE being outdoors!  Spending so much time outdoors means we are always on the lookout for gear that helps us enjoy the things we love in a safe and healthy way and if they add a little convenience, that's definitely a good thing!  Alpha Outpost is an amazing company that offers super awesome and useful outdoor gear in a monthly themed box. 


This month's theme is Neptune Box which focuses on Hydration.
Hydration is one of the most important things you need when you're out out in the field. The Neptune box is the solution to help you stay clean and stay hydrated.
Take a peek inside:


Solar Shower

Just because you love being in the great outdoors doesn't mean you have to stink!  This sweet solar shower uses the power of the sun to heat up water.  It's easy to use, easy to store and a great comfort item for camping or backpacking.

Hydration Backpack

We love this style of water carrier!  It's great to have one of these for the whole family so that each person can tote their own safe drinking water.  It holds plenty of water to keep you hydrated and is pretty comfortable to wear thanks to a little extra cushioning and adjustable straps. 


Collapsible Bucket

The uses for this bucket are endless!  It's super easy to pack and store with your gear, but can pop up to full height within seconds.  


I love the sturdy construction of the handle and rim.  Some of our top uses for this bucket would include toting fresh drinking water from a safe source, use as a bait or catch bucket while fishing, and using for washing up.


-Neptune Patch

This nifty patch can be attached to anything and has the velcro backing.  Collecting these patches from Alpha Outpost each month would be a super sweet bonus! 

The box also contained a Neptune Info Card full of great tips on finding safe water while in the wilderness and other great tips on staying hydrated.

Being a member of Alpha Outpost has other fun and useful perks as well.  They offer life-saving training tips via magazine articles and videos.  The gear they offer is great quality and every item in this box is something we would use...the sure sign of the perfect subscription box!

Alpha Outpost boxes are $39.95/Mo+S/H and worth every penny in my opinion! Plus, members get past boxes for $39.95, so you can catch up on all the cool gear you've missed.  

If you live an active, outdoor lifestyle, check out Alpha Outpost, get your gear and get outside!!

If you have kids, you have probably heard about the DIY slime craze!  We have been making different variations of slime for a few years now and we've tried so many recipes.  We recently got to try out Maddie Rae's Slime Glue and a few other slime goodies from her line.

Maddie Rae's Slime Glue is the only glue designed specifically for making slime and the only glue on the market that is sold in clear glue gallons. Maddie Rae’s slime is safe, washable and non-toxic, and contains polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which when combined with baking soda and saline solution, makes for the best slime consistency and is also great for everyday arts and crafts at home, school, and offices.

$12.99–$22.99
Maddie Rae's Slime Glue Jars hold all your awesome Slime! These slime containers allow for neat storage of slime for maximum freshness when not in use. Keep slime organized by labeling each container.  Holds 12 oz. or 6 oz.  Available with white or black tops, in 6-packs and 12-packs

The kiddos had a blast creating and experimenting with these Maddie Rae's products.  
One of their favorite experiments was making slime bubbles:






It's great to have the large containers of glue instead of having to buy a ton of small bottles.  There are easy-to-follow instructions on the jugs for each slime recipe.  You need very minimal extra ingredients, ones you will probably already have on hand like liquid starch and saline solution.  

The containers are the perfect storage solution for all of our slime projects.  The food coloring kit really let's kids explore color variations so they can get super creative and invent some really awesome, colorful slime!
