I take caring for my face very seriously. At the same time, I really don’t want it to be a massive chore, time suck or budget buster. Here’s a rundown of my process and the products I use.

Rescheduled from its typical July timeframe, Amazon Prime Day is the new Black Friday in October! And to make the shopping even sweeter, Walmart, Target and other major retailers are joining the fun. Here’s a running list of some fab deals I’ve spotted.
I’ve scoured the web to find fabulous Pride gears that runs the gamut from classic rainbows to a dash of Disney to salty innuendoes — everything’s better with salt, but you already knew that about me!
Brrr…It’s chilly in Dallas today! High of 50. The best part of tumbling temps? Fall fashions return! This … Continue Reading
We saw The Lion King in 3D today. Here’s what we thought. Plus, a very special rendition of Hakuna Matata, as “sung” by me and Mason. It’s something you will never forget…even if you try!
I’m rounding up all of my favorite deals on Amazon’s two-day Prime Day extravaganza! Keep checking back for more.

You can’t celebrate the holiday season in Dallas without a visit to The Dallas Arboretum’s “12 Days of Christmas” exhibit. . Likewise, nothing says “family fun” and “Merry Christmas” quite like a group photo in front of a milking cow’s oddly-realistic anus. -

There’s a direct correlation between how much fun you had and how much everything hurts the next morning. Based on the my tight knees, hoarse throat and achy head, I’m calling the return of @blacktiedinner a success! . It was wonderful seeing so many faces that we’ve been away from since The Before Times while supporting the organizations that care for LGBTQ+ Dallas! -

We celebrate adoption everyday, but especially on #worldadoptionday ! I can’t imagine my life without these not-so-little-anymore people. . As a National Board Member for @helpusadopt , I’m proud to help others build families through adoption with grants that help cover the significant one-time expenses associated with the adoption process. If you’re looking for an organization to support this holiday season, I hope you’ll consider HelpUsAdopt.org. -

This morning was so much fun! I was invited to help celebrate both the 35th anniversary of yummy @unclejuliosmexican and the smashing return of their fabulously fun Chocolate Piñata. To mark the occasion, Uncle Julio's donated $5,000 to @thebirthdaypartyproject -- a heartwarming organization that throws birthdays for children experiencing homelessness. (I welled up a few times, not gonna lie!) . PLUS! DFW diners can help bring joy to children experiencing homelessness through the magic of a birthday celebration by ordering their very own Chocolate Piñata. Now through this Sunday, $1 from the sale of every Chocolate Piñata sold at Uncle -

Even though school officially started Monday, we kicked off the year today, thanks to covid and an almost comedic series of canceled flights back from their grandparents. Both kids now in Middle School! -

#TBT - Going through photos on my phone and started flipping through shots from our wedding day in 2014. What a fun day filled with many of our favorite people on the planet. . San Francisco's GORGEOUS City Hall was an incomparable backdrop for the mid-afternoon service, followed by a boozy trolley ride to see the sights and an evening of dinner and dancing at in @absinthesf 's private dining room. . The following morning, we visited the world's most notorious institution, second only to marriage: Alcatraz. . More photos from the day at CoopedUp.com. -

A good sense of humor is vital for maintaining a youthful appearance. That, and a bunch of @kiehls lotions and potions! (Although I think the kids may have overdone it.) -

I have a big announcement! . Not really, it’s just me holding the precious 13-day old offspring of my super faves @ardenhen and @brockhensarling . I don’t remember my babies being so tiny!
