A Splash Party and an Uncommon Goods Giveaway!


Last week my friend Catherine told me about a Splash Party that the Riverwoods was having, to celebrate the opening of their splash pads.  I thought it sounded like fun, so we went to Cafe Zupas for lunch, then headed on over.  It was so busy!  I wasn't expecting that many kids to show up for some reason (it's Utah County, so I'm not sure why I was surprised)...but the kids had a blast and the weather was perfect!

Sometimes you just have to use a beach ball as a pillow.
She really wanted to learn how to hula hoop.

After all the excitement we went home and I had a special surprise for my daughter.  Matching necklaces from Uncommon Goods!  Here's the thing...my little girl and I are both really lazy.  I'm not saying that it's a good thing, but that's just the way we are.  Even when she was a baby she would sleep in until eleven with me and it was the best thing ever!  So, I call her my sloth baby...and when I saw these mother/daughter sloth necklaces, I knew they were meant for us!


She loves her new sloth necklace and so do I.  I might even have to wear it in an outfit post soon!

Uncommon Goods has so many cute and unique gift ideas!  Right now there is a great selection of Father's Day gifts (found here), as well as gifts under $50 (found here).  Today you all have the chance to win a $50 gift certificate to this great site!  This giveaway will run through June 5, 2013 and is only open to readers with a U.S. shipping address.  Just enter using the Rafflecopter widget below.  Good luck!
