Taking my kids to Disney, or Universal, or Six Flags was one of those things I looked forward to pre-parenting. But when it came to actually take my kids to these places, I realized it was a lot more work than I had anticipated! Also pre-parenting, I thought my kids would sleep and that they’d …
When my son was little, we were determined that he would be exposed to every sort of food and that we would order him interesting and healthy things when we went to restaurants. We looked at children’s menus with dismay and ordered for him off the regular menu when possible. And truth be told, he …
I did something special for my birthday this year. I bought myself (and my family) a llama walk at Shangri Llama in Royse City, TX (not far outside of Dallas). Some friends had told us about it, and the second I realized that I could go on a walk with six llamas I was all …
Last week, my family was hosted by Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark in Grand Prairie for a day of waterslides at the biggest indoor water park in Texas. Epic Waters has been been open for a year-and-a-half, but this was the first time I’d even heard about it. Who knew there was a giant indoor water …
There is so much to do in Dallas. If you like to get out and about and see the city (and especially if you have kids, and especially if you like to save money), this is for you – you’ll love POGO pass! Also, Pogo Pass is now available in lots of other cities, too – …
It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! That is the movie I’ve pretty much watched every October since I was a kid and also this year’s theme of the Pumpkin Village at the Dallas Arboretum! The Pumpkin Village always makes me feel like it’s finally, actually, officially Fall in Texas – even if it’s approximately …
One of my favorite day trips from Dallas is to visit Glen Rose, Texas. About an hour and forty five minutes outside of Dallas, it’s kind of a trek to get there but not so far you can’t do it in a day. And it’s home to one of our favorite Texas attractions…Fossil Rim! Here’s …
My family attended a media weekend hosted by the Great Wolf Lodge. All opinions are my own. The Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine, Texas, has been on my kids’ wish list for ages. We’ve driven by it, their friends have been and told the tales of its awesomeness, and they’ve heard us promise over and …
Hey. Dallas! It’s been awhile since I’ve written something just for my Dallas readers, and with summer upon us, it seems like a good time. Because I know I’m not the only one looking for fun things to do in the Dallas area this time of year. Things to do with Kids in Dallas this …
OK guys…NEW OBESSION ALERT. Last week, Charles and I attended media night at Dallas Summer Musicals and we. saw. Hamilton. I had never seen Hamilton before! And to be honest, it is so incredibly hyped up that I could not imagine how it could possibly live up to my expectations. Now, I should say that …
