Happy New Year Savvy Mommas!!!!!  I have been neglecting this page more than I ever imagined I would.  Not because I wanted to or because I didn’t care.  I have been so busy this holiday season with 2 little ones holiday activities, a pregnancy that has me sick all the time and a fundraiser I am co-chairing that has become a full time job.  That being said…one of my priorities for 2011 is to be consistent about posting more regular activities, cool shops, yummy restaurants to try and places to entertain your family.

2011 is going to be a GREAT  year!  I can just feel it!!!  Please feel free to email me with any awesome information, places to try out and things to do to entertain your kiddos so I can let all other Savvy Mommas know too!  We are all a wealth of knowledge.  Just takes a few of us to type this stuff up and share with others. 

Happy New Year!!  Let’s make 2011 Great!

Great party favor idea!

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

I took my kids to a birthday party last week and was so impressed with the party favor.  I just had to share with all of you and give props to my friend Sara for coming up with this.  My kids each got a $5 Gift Certificate to Barnes and Noble Bookstore.  The girls card has Fancy Nancy on it and the boys had pirates.  I just loved the idea of giving something the kids could actually use to pick out what they wanted, it gave me an outing to take them to the bookstore and encourages reading and the value of money.  Clearly, most books cost more than $5 so it helped my kids understand the value of what they had been given as a gift as well as what money we used to put towards the book they had chosen.  This didn’t take much effort on Sara’s part in regards to having to make special gifts for each kid either.  I am so appreciative of her generous party favor and thankful that we have discovered a new place to have an outing…the bookstore!  My kids love Barnes and Noble now!

You could probably do this at your local book store too!  Thanks Sara for inspiring me to be more creative with the gifts I give kids rather than just another bottle of bubbles:)

Lost Pines Resort

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

My family just got back from a vacation and it was well worth blogging about!  If you haven’t had a chance to take your family here this would be a great weekend getaway with the kids.  Probably one of the most kid friendly places to stay we have ever been to.  The rooms were nothing extraordinary but the grounds were worth spending your time outside…even on a hot summer day.

Lost Pines is owned by Hyatt Regency and located in Bastrop, TX (right outside of Austin).  They have a beautiful golf course, horses to ride, a wonderful pool, water slize, lazy river and great activities almost every hour throughout the day.  From face painting to digging for worms and kickball games, Lost Pines is a place to take the whole family.  They have tons of bicycles and kid bikes you can use, walking paths, hiking trails, and great food from a few different restaurants on the main campus.

If you want to learn more about Lost Pines you can check out their web page HERE.

Summer is HERE!!

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

It is only the 2nd day of summer and my kids are already driving me CRAZY!  It doesn’t help that they have been running fevers the past 2 days, but the days are creeping by.  So…it is time for some summer suggestions.  Write in with your favorite activity to do with your kids during the summer to help the days go by!  Then I can take all of the suggetions and write a blog about new ideas for all of us Savvy Mommas to do.

We have already baked cupcakes, painted pictures and been swimming like crazy.  New ideas needed PLEASE!

The Gypsy Couture

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

Probably the most unique and fun party and shopping idea I have seen in a long time!  This is worth checking out and planning your next girls night out.  The Gypsy Couture is a traveling boutique that brings along the latest fashion and trends right to your home.  All you have to do is schedule your next girls night, book Gypsy Couture and then shop away!  The Gypsy Couture shows up in an old vintage trailer that has been remodeled on the inside to be a boutique.  It even has a dressing room!  Tons of cute and affordable clothes to try on right at your door step. 

If you are looking for a new night out and want to make sure all your friends will have a blast, grab a couple bottles of wine, your best friends and call Gypsy Couture to bring all the latest fashions!  Such a creative idea.  Check them out!!!
