April 21 is PowerTalk 21® – the national day for parents to talk with their children about alcohol. I know this may go beyond the topics that you normally cover, but as a parent, this…

Praise Wave Flows into SeaWorld this Saturday
This Saturday, April 12, 2014, SeaWorld brings top Christian artists to San Antonio for their annual Praise Wave concert event. Experience a powerful day of soul-stirring music with live performances by Matthew West and Kari Jobe. The concerts will take place at 3PM and 6PM in Nautilus Amphitheatre and are included with your park admission. I HIGHLY recommend this family-fun event!
