Our summer’s day out with Snyder’s Of Hanover #PretzelGuys

 I partnered with and was compensated by Life of Dad and Snyder’s of Hanover for this promotion.  Summertime has peaks and valleys when it comes to children and snacking.  Naps and schedules go the way of the dodo because of camps, activities and the somewhat normal ‘life’ that has to happen. Snyder’s of Hanover is having America’s Summertime Favorite Sweepstakes; it’s a chance for you to win $10K towards your ideal summer vacation.

Here is the #PowerofDad that I’m teaching our kids

It’s great fun being a dad. Like it or not those little people, display characteristics that are just like us.  Sometimes in my head I run the highly unproductive argument of questioning if I’m over compensating for my personal flaws in the way that I parent.  But then if I over emphasize something doesn’t that just make them more curious about it and more likely do or try it?  Then the time space continuum bends and that photo of me from high school starts to fade away into nothingness.  Thankfully before that happens I wake up with my Walkman earphones on listening to Van Halen.

The Greatest Gifts for all Dads this Father’s Day at Best Buy #Ad

I’ve been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.  So with Father’s Day coming up some moms and other family friends may be in a pinch.  They need a good Father’s Day gift but when they ask dad what he’d like for his day, the response is usually ‘nothing’, ‘whatever’ or ‘socks and underwear’.  Best Buy has you covered for Father’s Day dad.

Empowering Women Together at Walmart solves your Mother’s Day gift needs

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walmart and Walmart Foundation for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I don’t panic for Mother’s Day.  In a way that by itself is a gift to my wife, a non panicked spouse is a good thing that begets more relaxation.   When you have two children under 5 a calm mom is a great thing to have, or be.  If you’re looking for some nice Mother’s Day gift ideas check out some items from Walmart’s Empowering Women Together line.

The #LatteRomeo is here, thanks to Starbucks VIA Latte

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post, in conjunction with Starbucks and Life of Dad, LLC. I was provided with samples packets of Starbucks VIA® Latte, and received compensation for participating in this promotion.

I like caffeine.  Sometimes I’ll work late at night and even when that happens our 4 year old alarm clock still comes into our room at 6:30. He’s on his time and can’t process the fact that we were up until 1:00 AM writing or watching cat videos.  When you factor in the couple of date nights, wooing your other half and so on, it gets challenging.  Starbucks VIA Latte is having a fun contest with Life of Dad that will award a $500 Stabucks gift card to the #LatteRomeo, just in time for Mother’s Day. Are you the #LatteRomeo Continue reading The #LatteRomeo is here, thanks to Starbucks VIA Latte

The best product review that I never did: Melanoma #Ad

I review the majority of products that are sent to me.  Some books slip through the cracks, but for the most part things get reviewed in a timely fashion here.  One thing that slipped through the cracks was the Phillips Norelco BodyGroom Pro.  I had a great post about shaving my body all lined up and a couple of jokes.  However, in using the product we discovered a mole that turned out to be malignant, cancerous and evil- the jokes were cancelled for a bit.
