AncordWorks Portable Bluetooth #speaker #sp #review

AncordWorks has a great bluetooth outdoor speaker!


What we tried the sound out on:

Yesterday we as a family went to Mica's school to play Goalball. Have you ever heard of it? I hadn't. It's a game were we got taught how to play from visually impaired people. We had to wear blinders, the lines in the gym stuck up (the were wires taped down), and the balls had bells inside them. Mica tossed a lot of of balls out of bounds (not a penalty though), and Isaak got so turned around he tossed the ball towards his own net. It was for Mica's Healthcare Academy. I recorded a some of the play, and played the video on the AncordWorks speaker.

Here's the original video:


Now here's the video playing on AncordWorks Portable Bluetooth Speaker:


The speaker has protected buttons:

This is where cords get plugged in. It's covered by a hard plastic, and clips into place.


The power, play, and so on are hard silicone buttons:


Clip It:

If you are on the move, you can clip the speaker to your pants, coat, overalls, or anything else really. The clip is really durable.


Water, Water, Everywhere:

Sometimes the best time to relax is when you take a shower, a bath, are in a pool, in a lazy river, or on a beach. The speaker comes with a little tiny raft. You can blow it up, and strap the speaker into place. The straps are a bit loose, so if we use it like this, we'll be sure to tighten them up. The speaker won't get damaged if a little water splashes up on it.


AncordWorks Portable Bluetooth Speaker is great holiday gift! Do you have a portable speaker? You can get it on Amazon Prime for $34.99 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CHCNMXN

WW: Hiking in Branson, Missouri {Linky}

We wanted to something out in nature during our trip to Branson. We already spent a lot in Silver Dollar City, and didn't really want to spend a ton of money for another activity.

Hiking it was. Missouri is more hilly than Nebraska. We also saw 2 lizards, those we wouldn't see in Nebraska at all. They were too fast and hidden to get good photos of. It was still neat-o to see lizards!

More than anything I just wanted to get away from the city life for a few hours.

Up in the trees:



My boys hiking away:


They're always waiting on my to take pictures.

I find likens, mushrooms and moss interesting:


It's like natures shelving system! I think my favorite nature photo is the picture to the right under this line of type.


It almost looks like someone took red thread to this tree:


Moss on a dead tree:



I don't think I'd try eating these mushrooms:


Rocks that are different from Nebraska:


Missouri is the cave state. They had a grouping of rocks that was an overhang. Not really a cave, but still cave like.


Nature's stage:


Us! I got more photos, but Mica's into putting a creepy face on just for giggles! 


No creepy faces with either boy here though:



Me, "Smile Mica!"


I've never seen anything like this caterpillar in Nebraska either:


What about you? When you're in a busy tourist type place do you feel the need to get away from it all like I do?

Leader Accessories 19-29 lbs Compound Bow 14

The Easter Bunny has a little something special he's bringing Mica this year. He's been wanting a bow and arrow set for quite some time. Mica is getting a Leader Accessories 19-29 lbs Compound Bow 14! He's going to be so excited. 


Travis tested the bow and arrows out. He had so much fun with it.

It comes with: 

  • 2 Fiberglass Arrows
  • Arrows Quiver
  • Armguard
  • Finger Tab
The only other thing we wished it came with is a case for the bow after it's all put together.




We weren't expecting to put some of the bow together. Most of it already is put together, but they leave a little bit to put into place. It was a windy day. We recommend installing everything in doors.

The screws that are already in place are aluminum, but the screws we put in to finish the bow off are plastic.


Travis loves how the bow is adjustable!



I like that the arrows are firm, and now flimsy.


We have hay bails in our backyard to shoot. Our backyard is huge, so Mica can shoot back there with supervision. He goes to a summer camp were they practice archery. We can go to his summer camp location any day to practice. It's a park, where they have archery boards set up to use.

Product Description:
  • The Cost: $99.99, but on sale for $54.99
  • Draw Weight: 19 - 29 pounts
  • Draw Length: 2" - 26"
  • Max Speed: 129 FPS
  • Let Off: 65%
  • Axle to Axle: 32"
  • Aluminum Riser
  • Color: Black
Overall we really like this set! I'm so thankful that we have it. It's certainly a step up from a little kid toy. Mica's turning into a little man. It will be great for him to practice his archery skills!


Leader Accessories has a lot of other Sporting Goods Equipment products. All of it looks fun! Check them out on Amazon!

Today I Picked Up Cousin's Evan and Elijah to Slip n' Slide

It started out good! They were going one at a time!


Then it ended like this:






Somewhere in the middle Evan found a worm, and Isaak was fascinated. He kept saying, "Mommy the worm is so cute!" Truth be told, I liked worms when I was little too!
