November 25, 2014 Wednesday will be one of the busiest travel days of the year, and it's not just carloads of people headed to Grandma's house who will be on the road. State troopers will be out there too, watching for speeders, drunk drivers, and those who aren't wearing seat belts.
November 25, 2014 I LOVE the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. Having the parade on TV, the smell of turkey pouring out of the oven, putting the green been casserole together, and trying to keep the kids out of the black olives until the guests arrive...that's one of the best moments of the year for me.
Have you seen the parade lineup? It's looking good.

November 21, 2014 Some stores are opening up at 5 or 6pm on Thanksgiving Day to help you burn some calories after all the turkey and cranberries. But others have said no, and won't open up until Black Friday. Check out the growing list of stores that WON'T open on Thanksgiving Day.

November 14, 2014 Parents, these moments happen to you too, right? I'm not alone with the chaos?
November 10, 2014 Tuesday, November 11th is Veteran's Day, and chances are there is someone in your life you celebrate and honor because they've served in the military in some capacity.
For me, it's my Dad, who's a US Navy Veteran. That's him in the pic, with my daughter at the County Fair a few years ago when she was 2. That perfectly captures my dad. He's the most honest, big-hearted, super-awesome human you could ever meet. And he loves rural America.
November 4, 2014 The Dallas Zoo held a fundraiser last weekend and raised a lot of money for conservation and other efforts.
One bidder paid $50,000 for the rights to pick the name for a new baby giraffe born at the Zoo on October 26th.
That's the same dollar amount as some new SUVs! So what will that expensive name be?
Tonight is almost the biggest night of the year for kids, second only to Christmas probably, because they'll be going door to door with their cute little catch phrases to get their haul of the candy goodness!
