It’s a new year. If you are anything like me, you are desperate to forget about and clean up the wreckage of 2020. As you organize and clean, the “to donate” pile grows. If you want to make sure those goods don’t end up in a landfill, you’ll want to choose a local charity directly supporting […]
Fall is here, and that means all things pumpkin … including patches! When the cooler weather hits, one of my favorite things to do each year is to visit Houston pumpkin patches with the kids. From the petting zoo at 7 Acre Wood to a full day of family activities at Blessington Farms, there is no shortage of pumpkin […]

Since most of us are at home with our children and doing more outside activities, it is crucial to understand how to mitigate the effects […]
The bluebonnet is the state flower, and taking photos with the cerulean buds is every Texan’s favorite past time. Spring means warmer weather, longer days, and of course, stunning fields covered in bluebonnets! This is the time of year when Houstonians venture outside of the loop to find the perfect field to sit in- and […]
St. Patrick’s Day is upon us once again! And with all that’s going on, its always nice to have a reason to celebrate with {or without} your little ones. In honor of St. Patrick’s Day here’s a list of events that you can find a green craft {beer or the paper and glue type}. […]
