Repurposed blog!

I have decided to make a calender of free events for A-town/Metroplex.
I always try to keep up on any free events and if you're cash-strapped and still want to have fun then I hope this helps.
If you know of any free events in your town, leave a comment and maybe a link.
Thanks and Enjoy!

Suburban Parent magazine (pick up at local rec. center) is also a good resource for events.

Have a great weekend!

I will try to update each week, but as the holiday season picks up, I will probably keep the list down to Arlington-Fort Worth.

Oh yeah, We are all doing well.
I like the kids new school.
I am hoping to start teaching yoga at Nov. start.
D-man's cast comes off the 28th and is looking good-smelling bad.
Peace!

Here's a fun site!

http://www.mykidseatfree.com/

This site shows all the dining places in the area that have nights where kids eat free! Technically, you could score a free meal for your kids every weekday night! Not really useful just yet for us, since Davy still just has whatever I have, but when he gets older you can bet I'll be utilizing this for family nights out!
