My family and I visited Audubon Zoo yesterday, and we had a fantastic time! I love a day of making memories with hubby and the kiddos. Here are my little monkeys hanging out!

The Audubon Zoo has always been one our family’s favorite outings.  The kids all have their favorite animals they can’t wait to see, but upon exiting the zoo when asked which was their favorite of the day the list went on and on.

When we arrived we were just in time to catch one of their Critter Chats. We had the opportunity to get up close and personal with some interesting “critters” like a rat snake, tarantula, iguana, and the cutest of them all the hedgehog. Look at that little face.

Next we headed to the World of Primates…

This area is my absolute favorite. I just love watching these animals especially the Orangutans.  They usually always put on quite a show for everyone. Silly monkeys…

After the World of Primates we decided to break for a picnic lunch. We had packed our lunch and snacks, but there are several places around the zoo in which you can get something to eat/drink. There’s the Flamingo Cafe, Zoofari Cafe, and the Cypress Knee Cafe as well as carts along some of the paths.

After lunch we headed to the Dinosaur Adventure! My son could not wait to get inside and find the T-Rex. These dinosaurs were HUGE! They moved… they roared… their eyes were looking right at you..lol! He loved it!!! Then we asked him to stand next to the T-Rex for a picture, and he didn’t think that was a good idea. But he did it anyway and even managed a little smile! It’s pretty much all he’s talked about since.

  

From there it only seemed right to head on over to the Reptile House to check out some living and breathing reptiles.  And with so much still to see, we then headed to the African Savanna, and the Louisiana Swamp (complete with the white alligator). Then there was Jaguar Jungle and the South America Pampas and the Sea Lions. I think I could sit all day and watch the sea lions just glide through the water – it’s so peaceful!

Then we had a nice ice cream treat from Haagen Dazs (Yum!) before heading to see the last animals of the day in the Discovery Walk and the Asian Domain – home to of course the great big elephants and the beautiful white tiger. Ahh, taking a much needed afternoon nap. My kiddos were about to do the same… all the way home.

Thank you Audubon Zoo for a fantastic day full of lions, and tigers and bears..oh my! We loved every minute of it!

I was provided tickets from the Audubon Nature Institute; however all views expressed are 100% my own.

How To Save Money Online + Earn Cash Back!

May 18, 2012 By Leave a Comment

 

Tell us about BeFrugal.com and how it can help Mommy’s Money Saving Madness readers save money.

BeFrugal.com is a free website created to help people save money on their shopping. It began in 2009 with the online coupons section and we constantly add new features like printable coupons, weekly ads, and cash back with a current average of 7% on more than 3000 stores such as Macy’s, Target, Amazon, Walmart, etc. We assist shoppers with resources for both their everyday transactions and their bigger financial decisions, with online calculators to help people with financial analysis for their largest purchases – home, cars, and travel.

 

Talk about how Cash Back works.

Cash Back is money earned when shopping online at your favorite stores through BeFrugal.com. The more you shop on BeFrugal.com, the more cash back you earn in your free account. You earn Cash Back when a purchase is made under your free BeFrugal.com member account with any of our 3000+ Cash Back merchants. Merchants paying Cash Back and the amount of Cash Back will be identified on BeFrugal.com. Note that Cash Back rates vary by store. Some stores offer different Cash Back rates for different products or product types. You can see the store’s Cash Back Terms found on each store page to check these rates. Offering the Cash Back incentive is another way for us to share in the savings with our community. Our priority is keeping shoppers happy while helping them save money.

When you see the money bag symbol you can earn Cash Back while using a coupon on the same transaction. This is a great way to save more money on your purchase.

 

Tell us about the types of coupons that are available free on your site.

We have coupons for 40,000+ stores. You can type a store name into the search box at the top of any page on BeFrugal.com to automatically find coupons for a store you want to save at. There are also printable coupons for groceries, retail and restaurants.

We are working with the stores to add new coupons and verify existing coupons to provide the best experience with the most savings.

We even offer coupon alerts, where shoppers can identify up to 10 stores they want to receive savings updates on. We email notifications when there are new savings opportunities at the stores they’ve selected.

 

Mommy’s Money Saving Madness would like to thank Jon Lal, BeFrugal.com founder, for sharing this information. If you are not a member of BeFrugal.com you can head over here and set up a FREE account. You’ll receive a FREE $10 Sign-up Bonus which is available for a limited time only! Be sure to check out the FREE McAfee AntiVirus Software Offer for new members.

Jon Lal, founder of cash back and coupons website BeFrugal.com, knows the ins and outs of saving money: Since its launch in 2009, BeFrugal.com’s money-saving offers have saved shoppers more than $20 million dollars – an average of 27% per order on online purchases. For additional savings, BeFrugal.com recently launched a Cash Back program so shoppers can earn money – an average of 5% on more than 2000 stores – when they shop online. And shoppers can “double-up” their savings by combining cash back with coupon codes and free shipping deals posted on BeFrugal.com. Prior to founding BeFrugal.com, he founded Winferno Software, a consumer security software company. Jon Lal holds a BS in Finance and Economics from California State University, and is also a CFA charter holder.

May 16, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Week 6! Uh Oh! I think Mother’s Day weekend got me!! My family treated me to some most delicious food this Mother’s Day Weekend, and I accepted.

There were also a few days of not feeling well last week, and it’s actually carried on to this week, so the exercising and water drinking has not been what it should be. I came out of week 6 a +.7, SO it’s time to refocus! Not just on the foods I’m eating, but also on exercising.

Week 6:

Starting Weight: 124.5

Lost Gained: .7 pounds

Ending Weight: 125.2

Total Weight Lost: 7.1 pounds
