I had a dress I wanted to wear to a wedding and the skirt was fitting loose. I wanted to get it fixed but number one figured it would cost more than the dress and two it was 3 days before the wedding and figured there was no way. I happen to drive by Triple A and decided why not. They were the most helpful people. Even though it was cutting it close they made the time to adjust the dress in time for the wedding and it was a fraction of what I would have thought it would cost to do that type of work. Now I take everything there to be fixed, hemmed, and altered!

Dorothys has been around for a while and those who do ballet, tap or jazz know to go to Dorothy's to get all of their dancing attire. Being so specialized you would think it is going to be really expensive. But it is not. It is VERY competitive with dance items carried at chain stores, but the quality is superior. And Dorothy's stands behind everything they sell. And if you don't find it there they can special order it for you!!

This was the school I attended as a child and I still have friends that send their children there and in my opinion it is an exceptional school. The classes are small so the teacher student ratio is perfect for that one on one attention. Parents are very involved in the school and there is a great relationship and dialog that occurs between teacher and parents. Most of the students who attend also are members of the churches congregation. This is a great school and church with members who truly care.

We have been to the Austin Zoo so many times over the last few years. I use to wish we had one more like the ones in San Antonio or Dallas. But I have really come to appreciate the Austin Zoo. They don't breed or buy the animals they have but they are ones that were abandoned or hurt. They take them in and restore them to their original health and give them a good home in their zoo. It may be a bit small with lemurs, monkeys, cougars and bears. But it is almost perfect for my little ones who can only take a certain amount of time in the heat or walking! The train there is one of our favorite parts of the zoo and the thing my kids look forward to most. It takes a trip around the zoo in the middle of all the brush and hill country. Austin zoo is and will always be a family favorite!

I have been taking my kids to Little Hair Cuts for years now and I am so pleased. I tried taking them to the regular hair salons, but those people usually have no idea how to cut a two year olds hair. At Little Hair Cuts they know little ones can not sit still long. Or sometimes sit still at all. They have those special seats in the shape of cars and animals and show your child's their favorite video as they cut their hair. You pay a dollar or so more than you would at say other salons. But in my opinion it is worth the price!!

I was looking for a flower girl dress for my daughter and was told to try Bright Beginnings. I am so glad that I did. Not only did they carry the formal dress I needed but they have an array of colorful cotton outfits that are top quality. The store was started by a mom looking for inexpensive good quality clothes, and that is exactly what you can find there.
They hold sales that are an absolute bargain. When looking for a special outfit I suggest Bright Beginnings.

I went into Runtex one weekend looking for a good pair of running shoes. I had just taken up running and did not know what to look for. I just knew my tennis shoes hurt. So the team at Runtex measured and measured and went through all the different options I had. We finally chose a pair we all thought would be comfortable. I got them home and ran in them for a couple of days and they were not comfortable. So I took them back. The employees were awesome...they did not give me a hassle even though I had worn the shoes. They again went through a ton of shoes and spent at least 45 minutes with me and in the end I got the most comfortable pair of running shoes. I almost prefer them to barefoot. The team at Runtex has always gone above and beyond.

Dr Michelle Irvin has delivered two of my children and she is by far my favorite OBGYN. Her practice is set up with two other female OBGYNs and they have a very nice set up. Their office is nice, clean and contemporary. You usually don't have to wait very long, although a couple of times due to another delivery I have waited for a half hour.
She asks all the right questions and is quick with answers. Every time I called her nurse with questions I received a call back in a very timely manner and they were always very concerned.
I give Dr irvin the highest marks for her professionalism and concern.

Some girlfriends and I just had a girls weekend here for a 40th birthday party. Let me tell you it was a blast. I have been to the park over a dozen times and over the years have seen it expand into two huge parks. Even though it is so much fun it does get crowded the Masterblaster was a 2 1/2 hours wait! This was fine without the kids but with kids it would have been miserable. After 3:00 the rides got a little less busy but by then we were all too tired to take advantage. We decided next time with kids we would do the mid day pass where you can go in after 3:00 for half the price. Over all fun, but very crowded, not too cheap (beer is about $2 and other drinks like margaritas $4). And parking and getting in can be an adventure in itself.
