Florida OJ (sponsored post)

I was selected to go shopping at Safeway to purchase 100% Florida Orange Juice as well as to put together a cold cough and flu kit for my family. We love orange juice, (and shopping), so of course I agreed! The kids and I headed to the Safeway by our old house to do our shopping! Click here if you want to see all the photos from our trip.

As far as keeping my family healthy we start off cold and flu season with flu shots all around. The kids hate them usually get theirs at the doctor's office, but Chris and I got ours at the pharmacy this year. (Insurance even paid for them!). I know the Safeway pharmacy offers flu shots as well! The kids also take their Gummy Vitamins and a chewable Vitamin C each day. I try and remember to take a multivitamin everyday as well (prenatal works, even though I'm NOT pregnant). Chris swears by Airborne, but I'm still on the fence about it. Keeping things as clean as possible around the house through hand washing (particularly when kids return from school, and before dinner), helps to keep the spread of germs to a minimum. Even with precautions, inevitably somebody gets sick. When that happens we load up on more Vitamin C, lots of water, and even more hand washing. For coughs I love Delsym (I swear it's the only cough syrup that works)! Chris is a big fan of Sudafed when he gets stuffed up.

I don't buy a lot of juice, but I do make an exception for 100% Florida orange juice, simply because it does have lots of vitamin C in it.

How about you? How do you keep the germs at bay? What do you do when somebody does get sick (despite your best efforts!)?
