Travel Book Review on MomsTravelTales…

July 9, 2010

There is still plenty of time to roadtrip this summer, and if roadtrippin’ is in your plans, I highly recommend you get yourself a copy of one of the Kids Love guides!
Michele, one of the authors of the husband-and-wife written, kid-tested guides, offered a copy of Kids Love I-95 to me to review and share [...]

I LoVermont! A quick wrap-up.

June 26, 2009

As I type this I am flying home from a fantastic vacation in Vermont.

*** Okay, oops. This was when I typed it, but that was two whole weeks ago. Sorry for the delay. Back to the story…***
I am sorry if you missed my SOAP posts last week… the internet connection where we were was spotty [...]

Seeking Road Trip Tips

June 16, 2009

Our family is pretty well air-traveled. The kids (and the adults) know the drill when it comes to long flights, short flights and really long flights, too.  We’ve dealt with jet lag, canceled flights, lost luggage, broken DVD players, airsickness and more. We’ve also had lots of beautiful trips where everything has gone right.
(If you [...]

A new year, a new adventure

January 1, 2009

I love the promise of a new year.
There is nothing like flipping open a brand-new calendar and filling it up with new events and old anniversaries. I love thinking about what could be ahead.
This year I get to add a new adventure to my adventures: Happy to be at Home has asked me to join [...]

What should I pack?

November 14, 2008

We’re launching into a heavy travel season again. And if you are going “over the river and through the woods,” or something like that, in the next couple of weeks, I bet you’ve got lots of lists building in your head. Lists of what to pack, what to buy, what to borrow, what to do, [...]

Tune in tomorrow

November 13, 2008

If you live near Houston and you just can’t get enough of me online, tune in to KTBU-TV, The Tube, Channel 55 tomorrow (Friday) at 1 pm. or Sunday at 9 p.m. I’ll be chatting about holiday travel with the kiddos with my friend Lara Bell on her show, Wild about Houston. We’ll talk about [...]

Traveling Soon?

October 21, 2008

This summer I wrote a three-part series on flying with the kiddos. Our kids travel near and far with us… and it is always an adventure!
With holiday travel not too far away, and because I heard there is a travel carnival at Antique Mommy, I thought I’d share these posts with you again today so you [...]

Take a break from Ike… It’s Vegas, baby!

September 18, 2008

While Ike was pummeling Houston, I was off gallivanting about in Las Vegas, celebrating a friend’s wedding.
So when I wasn’t checking my email (members of my MOPS group in Houston were sending status updates to each other), checking Houston  weather blogs, and calling my husband with information updates that I was able to collect since [...]

Another beach attempt

August 19, 2008

Day 4 (Tuesday)
As I type this, I am lounging in my bathing suit on a massive couch by the swimming pool. Euro-sounding Mexican music is playing on the speakers, waves are crashing below me at the beach and some of the locals are setting up a marketplace for all the Club Med tourists who will [...]

Mas from Mexico

August 18, 2008

Day 3 (Monday)
*** This actually took place one week ago, but I decided to wait to post until I returned home. Hope you enjoy…
Although my entire mid-section was sore, I went back for more yogalates this morning. Ouch. But stronger abs mean a healthier, happier back. So I’m in for the week. Unless we decide [...]
