[Edited to Add: 9/4 - This giveaway has ended - WE HAVE OUR WINNERS - Congratulations, Kay, Daniel M and Beeb Ashcroft!!!]
Welcome to Day 5 of our Back-to-School Picks & Giveaway sponsored by some awesomely generous people who have graciously agreed to provide some really cool stuff for you (yes, YOU!) and your...I mean, mine...okay, isn't it time we ALL kicked our kids...back-to-school!?!?
Seriously, I've got lots of great stuff to share with you.
Our kick-off giveaway drew 400 responses - Holy Craps! - what a great way to celebrate the last week of summer!
Having 4 kids, attending 4 different schools this year, we've got something for everyone and giving cool stuff away, everyday:
Day 1: Coloring Fun - for my 2nd grader, Mini-me.
Day 2: Sports and More - for my 4th grader, The Boy.
Day 3: Street Smart Supplies - for my 7th grader, Thing Two.
Day 4: A New Backpack - for my...GULP...9th grader, Thing One.
Day 5: TGIF: It's movie night.
Day 6: Lunch Box Fun and Healthy Snacks.
Day 7: Best Tressed for School.
Day 8: Study Guides for Kids and Parents, too!
These picks, as always, are advertorial free. No one is paying me, to talk about their product. It's just some really nice stuff that I thought you guys would like, too.
Are we having fun, yet?
Ever since my kids were little, starting when my two oldest were in preschool and way before The Boy and Mini-Me were born, we would celebrate the end of the week with, "Friday Pizza and Movie Night!"
For the kids, it meant a weekend reprieve from the demands of the classroom.
For me -- having to get four kids to four different schools...and back...every morning and every afternoon -- it meant, you know, pretty much the same thing.
Especially if it happened to be a weekend when my husband was scheduled to have the day off.

Then...BOOYAH...break out the wine and cheese, Mommy and Daddy are...ahem...sleeping in!
Riiiiiight.
Inevitably, Monday would arrive and the 6 of us would start looking forward to doing Friday...all over again.
Today, I work from home, we order our movies from the mail and the pizza orders have changed a bit -- 2 large, one with pepperoni and the other with extra cheese -- we STILL look forward to staying in and getting all cozy.
Aaaaaand the kids STILL love Pizza Hut.
Earlier this year, Pizza Hut added Tuscani Pastas to their menu to give families (like ours) a choice of convenient and economic solutions to ordering dinners in. Now, they are introducing a third Tuscani Pastas recipe: Premium Bacon Mac ‘n Cheese (my kids' OTHER favorite food) putting a delicious new twist on an all-time pasta favorite.
Want some?
TGIF - it's movie and pizza night here in This Full House! Our good friends at Pizza Hut are sponsoring Day 5 of our Back-to-School Event and have generously offered to send 3 of our readers a gift card to try one of their Tuscani Pastas. More than three pounds of delicious, hot-out-of-the-oven pasta will be delivered right to your door (Tuscani Pastas will feed a family of four) along with five freshly-baked bread sticks.
Dinner's on them, but the movie is on us - 3 readers will ALSO receive a $7.00 Entertainment Card (good for 1 movie, or game rental) from Blockbuster, courtesy of our potty-mouth jar.
Because, we roll like that!
(Retail Value: $20.00)
