Happy Back to School! As a mom of four, the end of summer is always bittersweet. I will miss the amazing time we got spent together, the adventures we took and the memories we made throughout the summer. But I am also excited for their upcoming school year, new achievements, exciting milestones and the friendships they will continue and new ones they create. Now we get to share in the excitement and dread of school clothes shopping, newest trends, school supplies, lost lunch boxes, meet the teacher and all the fun that goes into the new school year. But with all that comes football, school plays, concerts and so much more.
I am so excited to bring you our Kids and Pets issue. We have included some amazing local businesses that cater to not only our two legged kiddos but our four legged ones too! From Dr. Kamal and his Krew at Surprise Orthodontics who personally takes care of all of my girls for years and treats them and all of their patients like family. We also have Legend Acres which is veteran owned and offers not only dog training but horse training and riding lessons. And a new addition to Surprise, Actors PlayGROUND! Actors PlayGROUND has been a long standing need in our community so our kids can experience the theatre and those of you who are still kids at heart can still enjoy the thrill of the stage or enjoy the shows and support our local youth in community theatre. I hope everyone has a smooth back to school and I’ll see you all around town!
