My husband and I found a great park last week. It’s nothing new to the central Texas area but it was new to us. It’s called Commons Ford. To get there, take Bee Caves west to Cuernavaca. Take a right on Cuernavaca and a left at the first road which I [...]
Super Mom Kim Obermeyer came to fill us in on some great healthy options for us and our kids on the go. Watch this video for some of the highlights.
