Who doesn't like white teeth?

We found this special on Groupon and just had to share it with you...


Smiling Bright – Redeem From Home



$29 for Teeth-Whitening Kit with LED Light ($180 Value)


Teeth-Whitening Kit combines mouth tray & specialty gel with LED light that allows 
customers to whiten teeth themselves in 20 minutes.

This is the company website so you can read up on the product since we really don't know anything about it:

We liked it because it is redeemable from home, its affordable, and its something cosmetic (which means no insurance). If this is something you are interested in follow the link below:

We have no experience with this product, so we can't give you a thumbs up or thumbs down on it. BUT...if you or someone you know has had any experience with this product please feel free to leave comments about this post!

Oh what fun, it is to ... PLAY AND LEARN!!!

'Twas three weeks before Christmas,
and all through the station,
the Coast Guard spouses and children,
to the galley were racin'.

The room was filled,
with arts and crafts galore,
so parents could mingle,
and the kids could learn and explore!

Then someone opens the door,
in a bright red sweater.
Santa Clause came to see us,
and now our day was even better!

What an awesome time,
we have to agree,
all made possible,
by the staff and parents of our USCG.

If you can't already tell, we had a great time with the kids at our Holiday Party!!! Thanks so much to the USCG staff and parents that put it together, and for letting us be a part of it. We think it was a great success! Here are some pictures from one of the arts and crafts tables...




The kids had a great time learning how to make mobiles.
Nautical Mobile was sponsored by Koasty Kids and
is a Koasty Kids original design.
