Deck the Halls with 3M Command this Christmas
We are usually a family who decorates on the first weekend of December, but this year the boys and I wanted to surprise Daddy when he came home from England last week.

First Alert’s new Atom smoke alarm delivers maximum protection in a micro design
October is Fire Safety Month! Time to test/replace your alarms! First Alert is a brand name my family has known and trusted for years. Every floor of our house is equipped with at least one smoke alarm, but sometimes it can be hard to find just the right place to install one. Obviously, safety comes first and the unit needs to go where it will work the best, but at the same time, aesthetics come into play too. Items like smoke alarms used to be a bit of an eye sore, but not anymore! First Alert … [Read more...]
