The day started with a live TV spot for my Austin Show @studio512tv . Then I had a spa day with Jill. 

I checked into the 7th floor, truly the best way to go when staying here. Our room is amazing and so are all the amenities. 

Then the hubs joined me for dinner and drinks at Sweet Fire Grill. 

It was a fun night at the annual tree lighting, catching up with an old friend while watching Crazy Kringle, Santa’s little brother from the South Pole, and his Sugar plum Fairy’s, light up the Christmas Tree and we enjoyed some live music. 

We were surprised with a cupcake and champagne waiting for us in the room for Vern’s birthday, which is tomorrow. La Cantera Resort really takes care of their guests. 

Be sure to check out their website for more holiday events happening all month.

Did you know they will be celebrating their 50 year anniversary as a community next year? I hope to come back and celebrate this absolutely amazing home town community which was voted the #1 community in 2021 and 2022. 

After spending a weekend in The Woodlands, I now know why they say “This is a place that stays with you”. 

From the art walk to the Market Street Christmas tree, and so much in between, this is the place to go for a wonderful Christmas experience.

WOW, what an amazing night in The Woodlands. The WOW, what an amazing night in The Woodlands. 

The Lighting of The Doves is a Holiday tradition that The Woodlands has celebrated for 41 years. 

The ceremonial
illumination of giant doves symbolizes peace during the holiday season.

There was live music, vendors, and a snow hill for the kids. 

Santa arrived on a float that came down The
Woodlands Waterway. 

After Santa read The Night Before Christmas, he flipped the switch that lit up the doves which was followed by fireworks.

There were new reveals, the @txautowriters Truck of the Year, The Toyota Tundra, and a Nissan Celebrity Challenge where I got to compete against other local San Antonio Celebrities in some auto challenges. 

The Show doors will open on Friday, November 17, at 2:00 p.m. In its 54th annual Showcase, there will be all new makes and models in combination with a great collaboration of locally featured clubs, luxury cars, and two beautiful Bugattis, among many other features. The following are highlights to expect at the 2023 show:

The locally famed Spurs Jesus will be onsite this year with a special-themed Spurs ride. 

There will be a 2022 and 2023 Chiron Super Sport at this year’s show, and in a pairing that makes perfect sense right alongside the exotic Bugatti beauties, San Antonio Zoo ambassadors will bring in exotic, furry friends for guests to visit up close.

Guests of the Show will have the opportunity to get behind the wheel of a variety of cars and trucks staged by Chevrolet at the Traditional Ride & Drive! 

The Electric Ride & Drive will feature a variety of electric vehicles from Nissan, Ford, Chevrolet, BMW, Volvo, and Audi.

@goldencorral is famous for giving back to military veterans and active duty service members. In fact, they’ve hosted 22 Military Appreciation Nights in the last 23 years – taking a year off for the pandemic.

This year, they are back with a deal that should delight former and current service men and women. To extend Veteran’s Day celebrations, all military members will receive a free dinner and drink on Monday, Nov. 13. This celebration has been huge in recent years, garnering $18 million in donations to Disabled American Veterans. Plus, Golden Corral has given away more than 6 million free meals to members of the military since they began the Military Appreciation Night celebrations.
