Cooling off in the Texas heat + a $495 Step2 giveaway

When I left my family to move to Utah I couldn’t have been more excited. I was going to college and pursuing my dreams. But little did I know the Utah winters would be the bane of my existence. As I approached my graduation four years later my husband and I only circled potential destinations that were warm on our map.

Texas summers have been a whole ‘nother story. While they get extremely hot, I’d much rather deal with the heat than the cold.

Big T’s birthday was a couple months ago and when Grandma asked for his wish list, a water table was at the top. We busted it out right away, but now that the temperature is heating up, it’s getting a lot of use. I’d been working on a video for their grandma to show off all the fun they’ve been having, when some friends of mine invited me to join in a Step2 giveaway. I realized that the water table they’ve been playing with is the same brand, so though this tie in would be perfect.

So a big thanks to Grandma for the fun toy!

I’m hoping to start doing a giveaway once a month on my blog to give back to my fabulous readers.–Sharing something I own and love. Consider this a start. Watch the video to see the Step2 water table my kids are enjoying (promise you’ll love it), and read below to see the fabulous giveaway where one winner takes all.

I would also get the complete choo choo train combo. That looks like fun!

That sand and water table looks like too much fun. 🙂 We have a little sandbox the kids absolutely love and I know they would have even more fun with that one. I also like the Naturally Playful® StoryBook Cottage – so many cute things at Step2!

Meagan says:

Our friends own the Play and Shade Pool, we’d love to have that. All the Step 2 products we’ve seen are fantastic!

Quiana says:

Oh wow! This is making me wish we lived in the suburbs now instead of the city. We *just* got rid of our mini-water table on our balcony cause living high up it was a pain to empty out and it got nasty. I was hoping to find a mini-one with a lid, but I haven’t been able to. And I just have to say, little man poking his belly in the video is too adorable!

Thanks Quiana, that little poking the belly shot was one of my favorites in the vid. Hehe.

We are definitely out in the ‘burbs now but I enjoy it. I like walks though our neighborhood and having a little yard. It’s not large by any means but it’s something.

Andrea says:
