If you have been following me on social media, you know that we have been to The Rock Ranch on several occasions and we always have a great time.  We love going to spend the day there.  We try to be the first to arrive (good parking! and more time there) and crazy enough, we seem to be the last ones to leave.  We have gone before Savannah was born, meaning Broxton and even an older brother... and of course now with the little princess of the family.  We were recently invited to visit and check out their "Country Christmas" and I was thankful that we did.  As a mama of 2 on a budget, I was wondering if it would be worth the money and time to go.  I mean, if you go for the DAY, it is great... but just to ride through a mile of lights and drive almost 2 hours to get there, I was not sure on that one!    FTC Compliant Review Policy:    The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or repr...

Yesterday was a much needed day for the kids and I.  This past year has been pretty much a lot for us all...  Going from seeing my mom all the time to not that often with her diagnosis of Breast Cancer being a main one. ( She is doing pretty well for the most part, I just really don't want to take my kiddo's around her while her immune system is compromised and she has been on "house arrest" so she says with her numbers being low at times.)  So, like I said... a fun family day was just what we needed.    Headed to the main entrance.   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.

If you remember, a few weeks ago we were invited to go to The Rock Ranch for a media event and we were beyond thrilled to go and check the place out.  We returned home and it has been a very talked about trip on numerous occasions...  To say we had a blast was an understatement.   We knew we wanted to get back soon... and we finally did. The thing about it?  We didn't just "go to The Rock Ranch" ... We went to The Rock Ranch and I got to mark off a bucket list item.   I am in my mid-thirties and I have NEVER seen a Hot Air Balloon!  I used to say I wanted to go in a Hot Air Balloon Ride - but once I became a mom, I decided to stay more "grounded" in my wishes (literally)  That b...

With Broxton in Kindergarten and me on the PTA and all of that good stuff... but you know me... I am all about #MakingMemories with my little guy and when I learned of The Rock Ranch, I was SO EXCITED to be able to take him for a day of fun. I heard of The Rock Ranch from visits to Chic-Fil-A - but lets be honest, how much can you really learn from a little brochure at the check out counter or a mini poster on the window? We were invited for a media day and I am so glad I was able to attend... Now that we have learned of this not very well known secret, I want to share it with everyone!!!    Their theme this year is Wizard of Oz - so it was fitting that they had a few special ...
