Family, Photography, and Finds from a Professional Texas Mom Blogger
I mentioned that GM gave us a loaner for our trip to Arlington to see Joyce Meyer but I haven’t shared where we stayed yet (or even the Joyce Meyer stuff yet). The generous folks at Holiday Inn provided us with a lovely room for our stay. I really liked the location because it was [...]
GM was kind enough to allow me and my friends to drive a 2012 Chevy Traverse to the Joyce Meyer conference. It was a 4 hour drive from Sweetwater to Arlington and one that caused me asthma issues due to constant laughing. It was awesome. The two ladies on the left rode with me, along [...]
I recently had the chance to attend the annual Walmart Shareholders Meeting 2011. It’s definitely not what most of you might think. It’s actually fun, informative, and my favorite is getting to hear the stories of the associates. Last year was absolutely inspiring and this year was super cool. First, I want to tell you [...]
My alarm is set for 3am with a departure flight from Abilene at 5:50am, arriving in Las Vegas, for the Consumer Electronics Show, at 8:40am. Needless to say, I’m gonna be tired. I’m hoping that I get a second wind upon my arrival in Vegas. I can’t check in at American Airlines and I’m assuming [...]
The only time I’ve been to Mexico came about by accident. We lived towards El Paso so we went to see the city…next thing you know we’re in Mexico. After driving in a few miles, we decided that we just needed to drive right back out. We just didn’t know the area so instead of [...]
WHEW! THAT was a mouthful! I’m still not home but wanted to at least share some of the entertainment photos with you for now until I have the time to write about my experiences of this entire week. Some of my Wilton recaps will be at my food blog though so keep your eyes on [...]
One of the things I’ve wanted to do as a blogger, and haven’t had the chance to do, is to work with an auto company. It’s not for the lack of offers, but from who the offers were coming from that didn’t allow for something more to happen. I’ve always believed in choosing brands that [...]
I was in Nashville early Feb attending the Blissdom Conference and I have to say that for me this year, it was the best I’ve attended since I started blogging. It was positive, emotional, and fun. I spoke at last year’s conference and was quite happy to NOT speak this year. I don’t do well [...]
T.J. Maxx/Marshalls invited me to Boston to checkout their back to school fashion pieces, school us on how well we know off-pricing, and get to know what they’re all about. I’ve been to a lot of events but I have to say, this is one of the best. Not because of the shopping spree they [...]
Wow, what an event. I honestly don’t even know where to begin because there was soooooo much happening. I arrived to Chicago on Wednesday, very perky and left on Sunday completely drained but it was all worth it. The amount of folks that showed up for the Blogher Conference was absolutely amazing. The sad thing [...]
Carson Kressley is not only telling you “How to Look Good Naked“, he’s also telling you how to “Look Good in Pictures” and I hope he shares a few tips with me during my 7 minute interview with him at Blogher! Lord knows I could use the help in that department. Anyways, on Friday evening [...]
Disney Family.com is offering an “On the Road With Family.com” kit to one lucky reader! The kit promises to keep children comfortably entertained during car or plane trips this summer and will put an end to the dreaded “Are we there yet?” questions while allowing families to share their favorite family vacation destinations. The travel [...]
Wordless Wednesday………Shamu and a photo from the show “Believe” that brought me to tears. SeaWorld ROCKS! (taken with my iphone)
I checked in through the self-service machine for my flight on American Airlines and noticed the option to upgrade to 1st class. I didn’t even think about it to be honest, I just said heck yeah! Scheduled flight time was 4:40pm. Because of storms, actual flight time was 7:30pm but about 30 minutes before that, [...]
I haven’t been on a roller coaster in years but thanks to IZEA and SeaWorld (owned by Anheuser Busch) for sponsoring the visit, I was able to ride the newly launched Manta Roller Coaster, as well as, experience other parts of SeaWorld in Orlando, Florida. I have a couple of posts I want to write [...]
