One of the many beneifts of living in The Woodlands area is all the wonderful places you can visit without having to drive too far. Here are some of our favorite Holiday Road Trips within a few hours away from home sweet home! Truthfully, my family has made "day trips" out of all 4 of these locations (it's possible), but you'll probably be more comfortable getting a hotel for the night. (pictured above - Gaylord Texasn)

December 1 is swiftly approaching, so it's time to snag your advent calendars for the fun tradition of having a daily "treat" beginning December 1. When I was a kid, our advent calendars consisted of one thin (very thin) piece of fake chocolate, one for each day in December leading up to Christmas Day. My, how things have changed! These days, you can find calendars for a variety of interests, and each year more themes get added to the market!
