We have been outside this summer enjoying everything the warmer weather brings, which means lots of lake and pool time for us! Here are some pictures from the past few weeks - not all which were shared on Instagram. ;)

Casetagram - Great for Father's Day {Review & Giveaway}
Wednesday, May 22, 2013
I have been a huge fan of Instagram since before it was available for Androids (I hadn't yet converted to iPhone when I first joined). And as soon as it became available, I downloaded it. I have been in love ever since. It is a great way to share pictures with all your social networks easily and you can edit as well.
With the growing popularity of IG (as we socialites call it), many companies are making it easier to use those beautiful pictures that you have taken time to shoot and edit. Casetagram has made it very easy to share your pictures by letting you add them to your phone case! How cool is that?
Sorry my picture does not do it justice.
I have an Otter box and although this case is no Otter box, it is an adorable way to proudly display your pictures. I take pictures constantly, so this is a huge plus for me.
Casetagram is available for the iPhone 5, iPhone 4S / 4 (which I have), iPad Mini, iPad 4 / 3, iPad 2, iPod Touch 5, iPod Touch 4, Galaxy S III, Galaxy S II, Galaxy Note II and Galaxy Note. To upload photos, you can use Facebook, Instagram or photos from your computer, too. Once photos are uploaded, you can customize your Casetagram. They even also have a free app that can be used on your mobile devices to make uploading pictures even easier.
They even have virtual gift cards and with Father's Day right around the corner, they are such a great gift idea.
Not only did Casetagram send me a case to review but they are also offering one very lucky Nanny to Mommy reader the opportunity to win one for themselves! This giveaway is open WORLDWIDE. All entries are verified.

Finding The Perfect Gift - Treat Gifts #Giveaway
Friday, March 15, 2013

I have the hardest time finding the perfect gift for my in-laws. They have everything and when they need something they just go out and get it.
But thanks to Treat, they now have gifts so finding that perfect gift was never this easy.
I love giving personalized photo gifts for special occasions. My husband and I both have personalized coffee mugs with pictures of SweetPea on them. My husband has his desk adorned with personalized photo frames of the family.
Thanks to Treat gifts I can now personalize each card and gift even further. And each gift includes FREE shipping.
One Nanny to Mommy reader gets the opportunity to win 3 Treat cards and 3 Personalized Treat Gift mugs. US only. All entries are verified, but the only required entry is to comment on this post letting me know your favorite card name and who you would give it to.
Good Luck!

We've Been Featured!
Sunday, December 23, 2012
Do you have plans to get together with family today?
I do. We are heading out to my
Father-in-Law's side of the family,
where we'll do a white elephant exchange and have
wrapping paper ball fights. Lots of fun. :)
I just wanted to do this quick blog post because, honestly?
I am just so excited. It really warms my heart.
A while back, I posted this photo of my
daughter on my Instagram
and then I was asked if it could be
featured on planetearthbeauty's page.
{View my original photo on Instagram}


A few weeks ago my daughter's photo was featured in
A Night Owl's
Weekend Hashtag Project
and the prompt was cozy. ;)
{View my original photo on Instagram}


Then YESTERDAY my daughter's picture was featured on
Tutus By Gayle's Facebook page.
She is the one who made the
adorable outfit my daughter is wearing.
And when I saw her profile picture,
it just made me smile.
So I decided to share and brag a little bit. :)

She was saying cheese in this picture and
honestly didn't want to bother with pictures. LOL
Follow @mrsdchastain
Okay done being a braggy parent but I'm proud of my sweet pea.
Have a great day! Happy Holidays! :)
