Our family approached a huge milestone recently – we sent our firstborn to first grade.

So since he hit the big time, mama has been getting schooled on all the “other stuff” like policies, homework processes, carpool rules, etc.


And of course, those are just the ones the school put in the book. Then there’s all the other “other stuff” like PTA, room mom and my next mama challenge, Labels for Education.

ABCs#Labels4Edu #CollectiveBias #Ad

I had heard about Labels for Education for a long time, but wasn’t sure how the whole process worked. However, before this year it wasn’t important for me to know what it was.  But now – if there’s someway I can help my child and all the other kids get a better education with more tools and resources – you bet, I’m gonna learn about it and figure out how I can help.

Labels for Education is a simple, yet amazing program that rewards schools when you purchase any of the more than 2,600 products registered in the program. It’s as easy as A-B-C!

Allocate #Labels4Edu #CollectiveBias #AdVisit Labels for Education’s website and make sure your  school is on the list of participating schools!

Buy #Labels4Edu #CollectiveBias #Ad

Buy any of the more than 2,600 products in Labels for Education list!

Collect #Labels4Edu #CollectiveBias #Ad

 Collect the special Labels for Education UPCs and redeem for merchandise for your school!

AND right now there’s even more ways to get money for your school while saving money for you at the same time!

Coupons: One of my favorite words, there are many high-dollar value coupons available for products you buy every time you go to the grocery store, so make sure to check these often for even more savings on top of your other coupon deals! (I saved $3 by just printing off the coupons available!)

Elabels for Education: Double your points, double the fun! Electronically collect an additional 1 point for each participating Labels for Education® product purchased when you use your shopper card at participating retailers like Kroger and Tom Thumb.

Bonus Time: At periodic times, there are special opportunities to collect EVEN MORE points for your school!

Labels for Education Sweepstakes: Now until the end of the year, you can win your school a chance to win $1000! 1000 schools will win $1000 when you enter online, so make a click now to make a difference!

Sweepsteaks#Labels4UEdu#CollectiveBias#Ad

However, the best way to make a difference for your family and your school is to buy the participating products and make delicious meals for them.

One of my first recipes that I cooked that my husband liked when we got married was this Chicken and Rice Casserole. It was super easy and quick – and best of all, it never failed me! However, to add a little extra crunch (and Labels for Education points), I’ve dredged it in a little crushed Emerald almonds! So not only is this a staple recipe for anyone to add to their “cookbook,” now you know when you make it, you earn 10 Labels for Education points!

    I love these programs and remember collecting boxtops WAY back when I was in school. Its such an easy way to raise money for school programs that otherwise might get dropped.

I put it off all day because I didn’t want to ha I put it off all day because I didn’t want to have to start the inevitable, but here we are the first #SeniorSunday for Jackson Benham Reo. (I’m so not ready.)
Doubled-down and won big! Congrats to @daynetxbbq Doubled-down and won big! Congrats to @daynetxbbq for being named #7 in @texasmonthly 2025 Top 50 BBQ! 

We’ve done our own BBQ stop shopping this last year from our own @hurtadobbq, @smokenashbbq and @225bbq in Arlington, @goldeesbbq and @panthercitybbq in Fort Worth, @zavalasbarbecue in Grand Prairie and @franklinbbq in Austin, no one can say that BBQ is BBQ. It’s as vastly different as the landscape as Texas. Now I’m off to @burntbeanco - #sequin here we come with the rest of the state!

🚨 ACT NOW: Keep Public $$$ in Public Schools! 🚨

Click Here (takes less than one minute): 
https://www.txpta.org/take-action

Tomorrow, March 11, the Texas House Committee on Public Education will hear HB 3. Let’s make it clear: Public money demands public accountability!

Texans have rejected vouchers since 1957—yet lawmakers are once again pushing them through with SB 2 and HB 3.

💰 Vouchers drain public school resources.
📉 They don’t improve student achievement.
❌ They aren’t about "parent choice"—private schools choose their students.
🏫 Texas parents already have school choice.

Governor Abbott is making vouchers a priority, but Texans are pushing back. Lawmakers are feeling the heat from voters who refuse to let public schools be undermined.

📲 Take 1 minute to make your voice heard NOW!

📷Jackson and Taylor are 2 of the 5.5 million reasons why Texas must keep public dollars in public schools. I was a product of public schools and had an amazing experience in a rural community with some of the best teachers. Change needs to happen, but taking away resources like these from schools is not especially when they ste already underfunded and our teachers’ morale is at an all time low. Communities work better together not when you separate them further apart.

Wonder what the @dallaszoo is like after dark? Once Upon a Wild Light comes alive with more than two million lights, 5:30 pm - 9 pm each night through January (so you can do this one with your family during the holiday break!)

Enjoy catching up through self-guided, self-paced walk-through and spend time together while taking photos, which is ideal if you don’t like the holiday overload!

🌲 Coca Cola Classic Christmas - Choctaw Stadium in Arlington  
🗓️ Now through Dec. 29

Growing up @cocacola made the holidays magic, so when Coca Cola Classic rolled down the road, we had to go peek! Partnering with @enchantchristmas, the experience is part lights, part photo opps and for my kids mostly FOOD and overall a lot of fun - all washed down with (of course, a Coca Cola!) 

What was also great was a little walk through memory lane with Coke Christmas moments throughout the years - cue the polar bears and 18 wheeler!

Experience: 
🎅Market Square (definitely hit up the t-shirts - reading each one is half the fun)
🎅 Snow Tubing (always our favorite)Ice Skating (truth: we don’t skate, but it’s perfect people watching) 
🎅 Interactive Light up Dance Floor
🎅 @cinemark Theatre with holiday movies 
🎅 Coca-Cola Lounge - 21+ Cocktail experience (looked great to go with the girls)
🎅 Santa Landing

And of course, the Eatery! Eyes (and mouths) got big here with featured food from State Fair of Tex winners like The Drowning Tacos (SO GOOD we then ordered the Birria Tacos, too all cooked onsite and with all the sauce!) 

It’s the real thing!

🎄 Prairie Lights, Lynn Creek Park in Grand Prairie 
🗓️ Now through Dec. 31 (NYE) at 6 pm 

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without @prairielights- with a packed car with blankets, Santa hats, hot cocoa and coffee, and blasting holiday music while we sing them even louder.  

A stunning two-mile drive through light park complete with a midway stop - The Holiday Village with carnival rides, amazing bites (corndogs, funnel cakes and more, oh my!) And this year we were surprised with a new light tunnel, reimagined walk-through forest and new displays, great photo opps, gifts, visit with Santa, a lighted strollable forest.  It’s perfectly timed for food, fun and a little time on foot! 

PRO TIP: Go early, get tickets in advance and spring for the fast pass on the weekends and prime holiday times. And enjoy it and don’t try to rush it - enjoy it! That includes entry and the experience (so bathroom before you go, but thankfully there’s one at The Holiday Village and you get the corn dog.)

Named after Bangkok’s legendary road of entertainment of all kinds (Sukhumvit Soi 11), it seems fitting this newly imagined destination would find its home in Arlington’s Entertainment District. Anchoring the NEW @loewsarlington, @soycowboytx (also from @bbbutchers / @berghospitality) recently swung open the curtain this summer with an opening that made heads turn at every corner of this 12,000 sq. ft. of sexy space - with 3 unique bars, patio, viewable kitchen and dining room. 

To call it a “Pan Asian restaurant” doesn’t do it justice with its rich menu of fresh sushi, dim sum, caviar, truffle, lobster, waygu (all things you don’t find in the home of the margarita machine and ballpark nachos.) And if you’re looking for entertainment, just take a peek into the expansive kitchen and watch your rolls or omakase be made. The cocktail menu is just as extravagant with everything from mezcal to Japanese whisky, you’re eyes will be just as happy as your lips upon your first sip. 

While we experienced live music, fashion show and more as part of the opening, the cool smoke installation and the people-watching is definitely just part of the menu at Soy Cowboy you’ll have to explore. 

Food Nerd Note: SoyCowboy is on the upcoming @dfwrestaurantweek menu for just $39, so it’s a steal to take your own trip on a budget. (Make your reservation.)
