I recently spent a 'First Sunday' checking out the Louisiana Art & Science Museum with our family and some friends. It was the perfect opportunity to experience the museum for the first time since I wasn't sure how much my son would participate (He's only one!). Every 'First Sunday' of the month the Louisiana Art & Science Museum, U.S.S. Kidd, and LSU Museum of Art provide free and reduced price admission to their facilities. We all had a blast that day and it got me thinking of other activities I can take us to experience throughout downtown Baton Rouge. Even if you don't make it on a 'First Sunday', many of the activities are free or reasonably priced -...

I don’t know where she would be without being at St. Lillian. Her inability to communicate like other children would have been a huge hindrance to her in most any other school environment. We know she is getting the best therapy and education possible at St. Lillian. - St. Lillian Parent

If you saw yesterday's post, then maybe you were inspired to declutter...especially before the influx of gifts this holiday season. Simplifying and "getting rid of stuff" is not always the easiest process, but focusing on the end goals help: a more organized home, sending your things to be used and enjoyed by someone else, or maybe even making some extra cash. This is your guide for what to do with all the STUFF right here in Baton Rouge.
If you're not sure where to start with a purge, start small. Look for clothes that no longer fit and toys that aren't age appropriate or don't see much play time. It's ok if you aren't quite ready to get rid of...
This is a hard post to write. I want to show my passion for diversity, but I don’t want to be preachy. I want to be real and honest, but I don’t want to offend. I want to be bold, but I don’t want to be bossy. All I can share is what is in my heart and what we have chosen to do as a family.
It’s said that Sunday mornings are the most segregated time of the week in our great country. Though our social worlds and occupational worlds may be fully integrated, for some reason, our faith communities remain, in large part, fairly homogenous. Our separations can stem from differences in race, class, economics, and culture. My...
Last Summer, Costco opened here in Baton Rouge. Costco is a membership warehouse club, known for its great service, organic options, and low prices. Stacy and Sara both love Costco, but for different reasons. Stacy shops Costco weekly and almost exclusively, while Sara makes a monthly trip to stock up on items she can't find in her hometown grocery stores. They have worked together to create a list of their 12 favorite parts of this Baton Rouge store.
My name is Stacy, and I am addicted to Costco. They sell everything. Everything. From organic eggs to yummy pastries, from batteries to beach chairs, from televisions to tires- they even sell cars online!- they sell a wide variety of quality products, and...
