Keeping Pets Safe During the Holidays + Special Giveaway!


Just like our own routines, we need to keep our pets on a healthy balance, that includes their food and treats. Use Code: PS115ZW997 at www.petcurean.com/pawsome to Receive $5 off a Bag of some of the best Premium Pet Food there is, it's grain free, gluten free, and made with ingredients everyone should have in their diets!

Few Ways To Keep Your Pet Safe During the Upcoming Holidays.

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree, Of All The Trees Most Lovelyyyy.. (You're welcome for that Song stuck in your head now.) Make sure to have the Tree Anchored.  The water changed in case your furbaby tries to drink it. Bacteria or Chemicals from the Farm that Grew the Tree could be on, and that can hurt your little four-legged lovers.  Along with Decorations like tinsel, and plugged in lights.

Decorative Holiday Plants, that are also toxic to our Pets.  Holly, Poinsettias, Lilies and Mistle Toe are some of the few that I try to avoid due to having Children, and Pets.

Candles.  I love candles.  They relax me, but they can be very dangerous to our curious pets.

Pet Safe Room. At my house we let the Pet's help up open the Gifts, but when friends and other family members come over that aren't always around we put the Dogs, and Cat in one of the bedrooms so they can relax, and not stress themselves out over all these people coming, and in out the house.


Reward Our Animals on the Holidays.  It's just natural to want to feed our pets things we are eating during the Holidays but don't.  It's better to get them something just for them.

LOVE. Love them always, after all, they are family and deserve the Best.



One lucky follower gets to win one of my dog's Favorite Foods, To this day, Petcurean remains fiercely independent and lives by the rule of quality first, pets first, without compromise. Petcurean Enter via Rafflecopter Below.

With the Holidays approaching and wanting to try a new wine, check out Winc, you'll receive $22 Off Your First Month of Winc.  Winc offers 4 personalized wines each month. Wine starts at $13 each http://www.trywinc.com/usfamilyguide 



I liked how the website asked me what Flavors I liked, and how I liked my coffee.  It chooses 4 different wines for me to try, which is exactly what I like to do. I love at the grocery store when it's a Fill your own Box promotion for trying different flavors of Spirits & Beers.  

They nailed it with the Sauvignon, that is my favorite type of White Wine.  Funk Zone sounds playful.  I can't wait to try mine out.

I did one of Sy's Halloween Costume from Last Year! 



Sesame Street Halloween Forest of Fun: The Counts Spooktacular At Busch Gardens 2017


We had so much fun at Busch Gardens last weekend for The Counts Spooktacular Halloween.  Our Favorite part of the Park is Sesame Streets Forest of Fun.  The park is very Autism Friendly.  We stopped by Guest Services to receive his Bracelet that allows him to get a Fast Pass on certain rides. It also lists the Rides that he's allowed on due to his Disability.  The bracelet helps a lot, and I love Busch Gardens for offering that to families like mine.  There are many rides he cannot get on because one of us has to be with him at all times.  Offering this to us, makes our experience and others at the Park A more enjoyable experience. 


Sy rode his first ever roller coaster this year.  It was Elmos Alpine Express.


We arrived at the park early, as soon as it opened, and hit a few Trick-Or-Treat Stations.  Sy was a Wizard! He matched Elmo. We then made our way to Sesame Streets Forest of Fun, rode the Whirly Worm, Elmos Alpine Express Roller Coaster, Met Elmo at the Picture Station.

A post shared by Angel (@greenvics) on

Sy won a Candy Corn Stuffed Animal at the Pick-A-Lolly Pop Tent (Check out more photos, and videos of the Live Show by following me on my Instagram Account @Greenvics.) 


The Counts Spooktacular is only on the Weekends, and from 11AM to 5PM, After 5 the Park gets ready for Hollowscream and Sesame Street along with Land Of Dragons closes down.  Get your tickets now to see Sesame street!! It's only a few more weekends left to go, and when I went on a Sunday as soon as the Park opened we basically had the park to ourselves in Sesame Street til around 2PM When more people came to see The Live Dancing Show of the Count, Elmo, Cookie Monster, Abbie, and Friends.  Later they have a Parade as well for the Kids.

Teal Pumpkin Friendly Candy that tastes Good! @YumEarth


Whose ready for HALLOWEEN CANDY!? I know I am, I mean.. my kids and his classmates are! What I enjoy the most about YumEarth is the Candy always tastes fresh, always has a delicious flavor, and it's organic, dye free, preservative free, nut free, and gluten-free. It is the ideal Teal Pumpkin Friendly Candy.  



It also tastes GOOD, I know a lot of people think "Oh it's that type of Candy?" Yeah, It's that type of Candy that is the BEST TYPE OF CANDY BEING ABLE TO TASTE THE NATURAL FLAVORS. It is also sweetened with Pure Cane Sugar.  It is my families favorite candy, and I am very happy I get to share it with my Sons Class, and Our Trick-Or-Treaters this year.  I see meme's all the time about Candy Cone, and how a lot don't like it. We love it here. I was excited to find out YumEarth has Organic Candy Corn, and it's good. It's so good, I personally don't even want to share it, but I will - because I want others to experience it's awesome-ness.
YumEarth even has Bats, and Pumpkin Shaped Fruit Snacks this year, Halloween Themed Lollipop Wrappers, and The Candy Corn.  My favorite flavors they make are Mango Tango, Pineapple, and the Banana.  



You can find YumEarth at their New Online Store, at almost every Major Retailer in Store, and Online.  Even Amazon carries them online. Go here to find out more,  https://yumearth.com/

Spooky Coles Breads Middles Halloween Treats! Printable Coupon Available!


I still crack up looking at the Art Work on these Boxes of Coles Breads - Middles.  Especially the Plain Bread Middles with Mac & Cheese inside.  What a Spooky - Fun Way to get the Littles To Eat this for Halloween.  It can be quite hectic during Fall for School Activities, and other Festivities that we don't feel like Cooking things from scratch, and we also don't want our kids eating nothing but Candy.. Tho,  sometimes I too, like to eat like an unsupervised child in a candy store. We do need other substances to survive.  Middles come in Pretzel, Bagel, and Plain Bread Bites.


These Middles were extremely easy to cook. I noticed letting them thaw out some while the oven preheated helped cooking them all the way through.  I also liked that my Son could help with putting the Middles on the Pan to go into the Oven.  He enjoyed helping with Dinner.  We only made half of each box, and I liked how it felt like having Fresh Made Bread.


Once baked, I realized, these would be delicious with Soup.  I don't know about you, but I absolutely love Soups during Fall weather.  I made a quick Tomato soup to dip my Middles in.  Not only can these be easy snacks, They can also be paired with your favorite Soups for an Easy Meal.

Buying a car should not be stressful - it should be celebrated! Here are 6 Easy Things to look for in Purchasing a Car.

Sponsored post.

Buying a car should not be a stressful situation.


It should be an occasion to celebrate!  Pat yourself on the back, and tell yourself YAY, GOOD JOB!!! LET'S DO THIS, LET'S MAKE THIS HAPPEN!! Like when we were younger, and remember the excitement of getting our learners, and then passing the driving test.  That feeling should be the feeling of purchasing a new car.  Whether that car is Brand New, Or New to you, or you are just going to rent a car. There are many ways to make this an easier task while allowing yourself to be giddy over it!

This week is Child Car Seat Safety Week.  I like that every Car Maker/Model made from 2002+ have the Latch System for Baby/Toddler/Special Needs Seats, and Harnesses for Tethers.   When I had my son, it was very important that I chose a car that had a great Safety Rating, Great Mileage, and was in my Budget.

6 Things I personally look for in a Vehicle, 

  1. Head Room  & Leg Room - I am a Tall.
  2. Space for the Children, and all their Junk. 
  3. Safety Features, Accidents do happen!
  4. Gas Milage - That stuffs like Liquid Gold.
  5. Warranties if It's through a Certified Dealer.
  6.  Is it in my Budget? Which type of Financing is Avail?


Cars.com helped with the researching a car process.  It was as simple as Choosing what Brand Car, and then it can be narrowed down to purchasing brand New, Used, and Certified Used.  The prices are all comparable, and a lot of the Certified New Cars are the same price range as the Normal Used, so keep that in mind.  Always browse everything to Compare each side by side, and then do a more detailed Search. Also, check out the Car Seat Check Safety Honor Roll - List of Newer Cars that pass every Car Seat type out there.

Haunting on DoG Trick or Treat Williamsburg & Jamestown Family Fright 2017 Events in Virginia

Although this years Williamsburg, Virginia Haunting on DoG street is only 2 Days, unlike last years Week Event, and Has been sold out Weeks ago -

There is an alternative,  Check out Jamestowns Family Fright Night that is also 2 event Dates. Has Pirates, Ships, and Activities for the Children to do that still has Tickets Available for October 20, and the 21st.



I am sad that Haunting on DoG Street is SOLD OUT - I am very excited about going to Jamestown Family Fright Night.  Family Fright is $7 Children 4-12, and Adults are $3 for 12+.  Children under 4 are Free.

Go here for More Information on Family Frights at Jamestown Settlement 2017, https://jyfemail.jyf.virginia.gov/eStore/Content/Commerce/Products/DisplayProducts.aspx?ProductGroupCode=9000&ProductCategoryCode=9571


Events to do in Williamsburg, Virginia during Fall and Halloween for The Entire Family. (Surry, and Jamestown Area too.)


Haunting on DoG Street is already sold out for October!!!!!! Geez, but there are Tickets still Available for Family Fright at the Jamestown Settlement with Activities for the Kids. Go here for more information, http://www.greenvics.com/2017/09/haunting-on-dog-trick-or-treat.html


I'm going to find some free Trunk or Treat locations to Add as well.  Below are events I want to today at College Run Farms in Surry, Va, and the other Photos are of the Last 3 years at Colonial Williamsburg, and Busch Gardens.

(College Run Farms,2051 Alliance Rd, Surry, VA 23883)  
The Corn Maze is amazing, it's 4 acres of Twists, and Turns.
$2 for the Corn Maze - Ages 5 & Under are free.
Pumpkin Picking - Costs per Size of Pumpkin Vary.
We purchased .50 Mini's, and a Medium/Large Pumpkin for $5

There is also a Pumpkin Patch, but Becareful - As of right now, it is not Kid-Friendly and it's dangerous with the Cars allowed on the Fields from people too lazy to walk and pick a pumpkin out.  I can understand picking a pumpkin, and then picking it up, but they are picking pumpkins out by going up and down the wrong way on the aisles in their cars - and no one is supervising that section.  Last few years that was never a problem.  This year, it was horrible with all the Pumpkins that were ran over.


There are Ghost Tours, and The Trick or Treat is different this year. They only did it for 2 DAYS! 


Tickets are sold out, but can still buy tickets for the Ghost Tours.


There are lots of things to do in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia. 

(These Pictures are from Last Years Haunting on DoG Street.)



10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays from October 7 - 29


We Love Busch Gardens Williamsburg, Last year it was very Autism Friendly, and We were allowed a Fast Pass to go from one ride to another for Special Needs Children since Sy can only Ride maybe 3 of the Attractions there.  The ones he did Ride, He Loved. This year we are taking him to the Counts Spooktacular for a Trick or Treat Weekend!


As you can see, Sy absolutely loves Busch Gardens too.  Can't wait to go this year for the The Kid Event during the Day, and the Adult - Howl-O-Scream at night.  Sy is like me, We LOVE HALLOWEEN!


If you know of anymore fun Events, please leave me a comment so I can add it, and others can see them too!
