it's rainin' candy...

My little daughter loves the 4th of July parade... It's a small one in our little town but no matter. A 4 yr old is in heaven even with a handful of fire engines and a decorated car or two. And she'll say the best part, of course, is all the candy she collects. Kind of like a reverse Halloween, where this time you just sit there and all the candy gets thrown at YOU. It's just one of those oh-so-fun things about being a child without a worry in the world....
perhaps if the rain stops we'll make it over to the fireworks somewhere.
To you & yours -- all the best and have a safe & festive holiday weekend!

Fox4 Deal or Dud? -- DEAL!

Did you see our review on Fox4 News in Dallas/Fort Worth last night? Was terrific!! Couldn't have asked for anything better. They'd tried out PortaPocket strap-on cases while riding the snazzy roller coasters at the amusement park and gave PPs the big Thumbs Up! Yea yea!
Don't lose your phone, etc...!

Perfect for prom

For all the young gals heading to the dance this spring -- keep your phone, ID, lipstick, or whatever you need ON yourself under that gown and be self-sufficient! We've had moms buy PortaPocket kits for their daughters for these specific reasons, etc. Handy for bridesmaids and women at weddings too. Makes a useful, helpful gift.

Twitter tweets

spending some time on getting into Twitter chat rooms, etc. Just getting past greenhorn stage...quite the spectrum of humanity represented there!

Don't lose your lunch (or anything else!) on amusement park rides

Sending out press releases about how PortaPocket strap-on carrying cases can help people help themselves while at amusement parks. Sometimes the lockers are too far away or you worry about them getting broken into while you're going about your day. Convenient to have all the things you need ON yourself for peace of mind! Just make sure to wear your PP pocket under your clothing while you're out and about, and don't use 'em on those water slides, ok? ;)
