College Football.  Do I have your attention now?  If you are from the south, you probably know that football season down here.  We have winter, spring, summer and football seasons.  No matter if you are coming to town for the game this Monday, or if you live near Atlanta. you want to try and plan to work the College Football Hall of Fame into your plans somehow or another.  TC Compliant Review Policy:  The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.  Opinions expressed are my own and were not influenced by monetary compensation.

I was able to experience a first for me this weekend.  At almost 40 years old, I have never seen a live puppet show!!!  (Please tell me I am not the only one!) So, let me tell you about it. It was at the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta and the puppet show featured Pete the Cat.  If you don't know who that is, Pete the Cat is a character in a book that Broxton was first introduced to in preschool, so we are familiar with him and we love that groovy cat!   Photo Credit - Darrell Hazelrig FTC Compliant Review Policy:   The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.

Calling all fans of Popcorn...  Well, not just any popcorn.  Are you familiar with Angie's BOOMCHICKAPOP?  I first tried it (and fell in love) at a friends house.  They had it out for a birthday party and it was a hit with everyone there!

We love the Kettle Corn.  It is just SO GOOD.  Come to find out, I need to start broadening out flavors, as they are rocking it with several flavors to choose from.  Guess I do need to take those blinders off when at the store! If you are in the Atlanta area, you are in luck!  Tomorrow (March 24th) they will be stopping at Perimeter Mall for a Tour.  From 3-7, they will have a LIFE SIZED BAG of BOOMCHICKAPOP for...

How is the weather where you are?  It doesn't appear that we will be getting snow anytime soon here, if any at all, so it was nice to be invited to Lanier Islands Winter Adventure to play in their snow! Lucky for us, Broxton was able to bring a friend for a night of fun and fun is what we had!!!!  If you have the chance, take the family for a night of fun and memories to last a lifetime!  FTC Compliant Review Policy:   The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency  for the sole purpose of product testing.

Once you enter, you get to enjoy lots of beautiful lights as you drive through.   7 miles of wonderful lights, to be exact!!!!! They are gorgeous and Savannah kept making all sorts of exciting sounds seeing the lights for the first time....

When Broxton was little, we went on several "mother son dates" and I love the time spent with him one on on.  Now that Savannah is here, it is normally the 3 of us and that is great too, but I do want to do one on one "dates" with both of them. Don't you agree that it makes it more special when they get all of your attention, even if it just for a little while?
