  • Baby It's Cold Outside - Friday Freebie

    I don't know about the rest of the country - but the weather here in Utah has been pretty crummy lately.

    Cold. Snow. Freezing rain. Extreme cold. Repeat.

    Since your probably indoors like the rest of us, trying to stay warm, we thought it would be a great idea to send you some treats ;)

    Have you ever heard of Hi-Chews??

    Well, we just got a huge candy shipment in a few days ago (which included 5 great flavors of Hi-Chews- as seen here on my computer).

    We'll send (1) lucky winner one of each flavor so they can have a fun snack! Just leave a comment here on the blog telling us one of your favorite winter activities! I'll choose a winner Monday morning and ship out the treats!

     

    WINNER: Crissa Robertson!

    Please send an email to kyle@blickenstaffs.com with your address and I will get your prize shipped out today ;) Thanks to everyone for participating! Keep an eye out for our next contest. I'm going to be running a contest each week here on the blog!

      Favorite winter activity usually involves a mug of hot cocoa or cider under a blanket watching a movie on Netflix or playing games with the family. :)

      I have several different winter activities I enjoy. One is hugging my boyfriend or his daughter, another is cooking, and still another is ninja sliding in fuzzy socks.

      I LOVE Hi-Chews! I love sledding in the Winter when there's snow. Although I haven't been in a couple years so now I'm thinking I should go get a sled, bundle up the kids, and take them tonight!

      I've never heard of Hi-chews...but I'd love to try some Mango or Peach...especially since I'm from Florida and now live in Georgia!! It's been crummy overcast here also....a good book and a fire going, with soup in the crockpot. Hmmmm....happy as can be!

      I love to ice skate. So fun. But now that I have kids, sledding at the park is one of my favorite ways to make memories with them. Or sharing my hi-chew with them. *wink
