Meet three new Hanes models: my kids!

I am part of the Hanes Comfort Crew and my family attended the Hanes Comfort Crew kick off trip to DisneyWorld earlier this year – and now my children were asked to be Hanes models for the summer ’10 catalog!

“It’s exciting and cool to try out being a model, maybe I’ll be in magazines and be famous one day”

The Hanes Comfort Crew is a network of social media influencers who interact with Hanes about clothing, comfort and online community. You too can interact with Hanes at their Social Mix Hub. There are amazing members in the group, and I don’t know how I got so lucky to be in the group. Maybe because I know how to chillax and be comfortable? Maybe because I have tried and tested (with three kids!) that their products last in use? Maybe because as a former clothing retailer I know a good brand and good quality when I see it?

The Hanes PR and brand people were able to meet my children this spring, and see in first person who they are, and now they offered all three an unique modeling opportunity!

“It’s gonna be awesome, I’m so excited, I want to be a model just like mama was when she was a teenager”.

My kids are getting an amazing opportunity to be in a Summer 2010 Hanes catalog. I am so proud, and yes, excited too! When I had my clothing store my kids used to model for my store, and they actually liked it. My two youngest ones auditioned for a movie this spring, and I think they have the same gene as their parents – they like to try out new exciting things. Now they are getting this opportunity to see what it is to be a model, have a professional photographer to take photos and what it really is. Who knows, maybe they are interested in pursuing modeling more after the trip – or just scratch it off as one of the things “I’ve done”.

“I’m excited to go because I know it’s gonna be a lot of fun.”

We are leaving for a four day shooting trip on Saturday, and I’m already busy packing.

Can you guess where we are going…?

Yes! We are going for a Disney Cruise to Bahamas!

Ever since I did the Disney Cruise in January I have wanted to take kids for a cruise too. There is so much fun for kids and I sort of felt bad for going without kids. This time our whole family is going, so exciting!

What a great opportunity for your kids!! I may have to enter the $50 gift card giveaway too :). We love the Disney Cruise too. I went once prior to kids on a work-related winners circle tirp and have be 2 more times with our little ones (we are going again in December). We go in December each year for their Birthdays and then visit my in-laws in Florida for a few days for Christmas. We are not the Disney “park” types, but love the cruise since it’s more relaxed and you can have adult time while the kids go to the clubs :). Love reading your blog!

Katja, Awesome article… Your children must be so excited!
Actually my daughter was in a few commercials when she was a baby and then again when she was about 10. It was both exciting and nerve wracking for her. Now she is in launch stage of a small organic skin and body care biz and the photographer she is working with told her he should use her in the photos. This will be the first time since she was 10.. ( she is very photogenic… I will email you her photo!)
So now, I cant believe it… even tho I have major health issues, I still don’t feel old enough, I have grandchildren. But I would love to include a post about your trip and maybe include their photos!
In the meantime, please enter me to win one of the Gift Cards… I appreciate it. Kiitos palyon!
