Dolby Cinema at AMC Prime

If you haven’t heard about AMC Prime it is a whole new movie experience like never before. It combines the most powerful image and sound technologies with spacious, reserved recliners. You not only experience spectacular images and vibrant colors, but also hear sound that moves all around you.

Wings Over Houston Airshow {Giveaway}

by

One thing I have been missing since moving from Houston is all the great events! The Wings Over Houston airshow was one of our favorites! It’s that time of year again, and you don’t want to miss it! At the 2013 Wings Over Houston Airshow our kids had a particularly great time watching their favorite airplane, Dusty.

Disclosure: This giveaway is sponsored by the Wings Over Houston Airshow and New Creative Media. All opinions expressed are 100% my own.

Wings Over Houston Airshow

The Wings Over Houston Airshow, is a production of the Commemorative Air Force, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. It is one of the largest civic events in Metropolitan Houston. This year it’s celebrating over 30 years of service to the community and the organizations it supports.
One of Houston’s largest non-profit civic events, the Wings Over Houston Airshow proceeds are used to sponsor the Wings Over Houston Scholarship Program for college students studying for careers in aviation, Aviation Career Education (ACE) Summer Academy for high school juniors and seniors interested in aviation, Commemorative Air Force aircraft restoration and flying historical programs, Exchange Club of Sugar Land, Rotary Club, and many other area non-profit groups. This Airshow is organized as an educational event that provides community entertainment, celebrations of patriotism, military recruiting opportunities and aviation awareness.
This year’s Wings Over Houston Airshow is taking place October 17 and 18, 2015 at Ellington Airport. It will feature the USAF Thunderbirds, Breitling Jet Team, CAF WWII Warbirds, Tora Tora Tora Airshows and more!
As a Disabled Veteran’s wife, I have really appreciated the military history at the Wings Over Houston Airshow. They always features a variety of military air crafts. I think it’s fantastic how they focus on wanting to share the history of the military aircraft and honor the men and women who fought for our country.
Wings Over Houston USAF
In addition to the opportunity to learn more about and appreciate the military, there are also many other educational opportunities as well! We talked to various pilots and learned about their planes. Plus this year there will even be the NASA Driven to Explore Exhibit, which will have a lot of great information. One of our favorites was the Flight Simulator. Different Flight Simulators will be available this year!
Houston Airshow Flight School
The show is absolutely amazing. We were just so impressed by some of the stunts performed! Debbie Rihn-Harvey is one of the highest ranked aerobatics competitors in the United States, and it was just so awesome watching her perform. She was talking through the broadcast system while performing these wild stunts like it was no big deal! It was amazing! She’ll be back again this year, so you definitely don’t want to miss it!
Check out this year’s amazing line-up of performers and displays online. You can also view the full Wings Over Houston 2015 Schedule online.
The Wings Over Houston Airshow is October 17-18, 2015 at Ellington Airport. Gates open at 8am both days.

It’s Time to Prepare!

Now that you’re clued in on the fun, it’s time to prepare! First, check your own closets for any clothes you may have held on to from your favorite past time moments. Perhaps if they don’t fit you they may fit one of your children or a friend or other family member. If there is nothing to be found, you can hit the thrift stores, which are known to have styles from various eras. Be sure to pick your favorite era and choose a full style idea before shopping. You don’t want to accidentally clash two of them together because you couldn’t quite remember if that was the 70’s or the 80’s! Don’t forget accessories and makeup and hair styles for the ladies as well!
If you will be participating in the run, it is also important to prepare for the run itself. If you have any medical conditions, be sure to let your doctor know of your intent to participate and get the OK. Make sure you build up to the 5K or 10K depending on your current fitness level and the run in which you hope to participate. Don’t forget to eat well, drink a lot of water, and always stretch before running!
Most of all, HAVE FUN!!!

Houston Area Home Shows {Ticket Giveaway!}

by

Disclosure: I will receive tickets to the event in exchange for promotion. Regardless, all opinions are my own.
I love home improvement, decorating, and garden ideas. I could sit and watch home improvement shows all day! Even though we rent, I can still find a lot of inspiration for things I CAN do and really make this rental feel like home! Wouldn’t it be neat to get those ideas in person? Can you imagine ideas for home decorating, remodeling, landscaping, as well as home décor, outdoor and garden products? Wouldn’t it be great to see “how-to” seminars and talk to the expert?
You don’t have to imagine because there are TWO Home and Garden Shows in the Houston area coming up! Not only will they have everything I mentioned, but they will also feature DIY Expert and Host Jason Cameron! He happens to be a native of Northwest Ohio just an hour from where I grew up! More importantly, though, he’s a licensed contractor with a passion for home improvement and landscaping! (Wow do I need some landscaping tips!) He is featured on DIY Network’s Desperate Landscapes and Man Caves.
I know you’re ready for the details!
