 As a Lifetime Mom Affiliate, I have been given some incredible opportunities. Last Friday was one of those, Lifetime Moms set up a phone interview for a few people with Project Runway’s exiting designer from Episode 4. We had an opportunity to find out more about Kristin, her experience and her future.
Kristin Haskins Simms began Project Runway Season 8 under the radar and in Episode 3, she stole the show. Her choice of party supplies in “It’s a Party”...

Project Runway’s first hat inspired challenge introduces us to famed hat designer Philip Treacy. This British milliner has adorned the heads of celebrities including Sarah Jessica Parker and Lady Gaga.
He informs the designers this challenge is all about volume, proportion and understanding the silhouette of the person wearing it. One more thing, he will be the guest judge.
This just may be one of the more difficult challenges the designers will face this season.
Challenge: Create a look inspired by the outrageous hats designed...

 A few days ago, I made my 5 minute debut on our local morning show, Great Day Houston. The show was about social media and I was there to talk about practicing internet safety with your kids. Many of you know that I am also an Internet Safety Advocate and educate families on staying safe online at Cyber Safe Family.
It was quite an experience.
I am used to speaking...

I highly recommend visiting MommaFindings.com for reviews and giveaways. A couple of weeks ago, Sara at MommaFindings, was working with Nestle on a Summer Block Party.
She partnered with Nestle for a Summer Block Party to help with some budget savvy, fun summer ideas. The idea was to post one fun family-friendly activity, along with a daily giveaway of a Nestle Prize Pack.
Each day her readers shared information and they were entered into a drawing. On Monday, she talked about the dance parties...

 Our family just got back from our first visit to SeaWorld San Antonio. You would think that as much as we love theme parks and roller coasters, that we would have already visited. Plus, SeaWorld is only 3 hours away, which makes it an easy weekend trip. Why, oh, why did we wait this long?
One thing I can tell you… now we are fans and will be going back soon.
Wondering why we finally decided to go?
Last month I was asked if I would be interested in attending the #Wildside Bloggers...

 One of my favorite ways to "get away" or relax is listening to music and driving. It is the freedom to go wherever you want and the freedom to sing out loud (without anyone listening).
When I first began driving, one of my favorite things to do was listen to my favorite music and drive. Sometimes I would take the longer, more scenic route to my destination or just head down the highway. It was my time to "get away" and reflect on my life and where it is headed. I still love to do that, but as a mom, I rarely get that chance.
I still...

 While I had the Chevy Malibu (for the Gotta Love Chevy Mom’s Time Out Program), I decided I needed a Mom’s Time Out that included the entire family. We had tickets to an Astros game which meant I didn’t have to cook and that automatically qualifies it as a Mom’s Time Out.
Our family loves baseball! My son plays little league and dreams of going to “the show” (major leagues)! My daughter...

 Gotta Love Chevy Houston sent me (and a friend) to get a complimentary massage from Massage Envy. I chose my friend Sarah, over at MommaFindings to join me. We had a great Mom's Time Out with a massage, mexican food and a margarita!
Oh, and lots of water. (Tip: Be sure to drink a lot of water before and after your massage)
We arrived a...

 Fellow Chevy Mom Squad Member, Melissa, asked me why everyone loves Bucee's so much. I was determined to show her why I love it, besides the obvious - the cleanest bathrooms in Texas!
In order for Melissa to get the full effect, I needed to drive out to the Bucee's in Luling, TX. I know it is one of the biggest, if not, the biggest Bucee's around. It is about a 2 1/2 hour drive, but I didn't...
