Back to school in Madison

           Back to School in Madison Alabama.

It’s almost the most wonderful time of year again in Madison! .Christmas? Oh heaven’s no, every parent knows back to school is the most wonderful time of year (well except Kindergarten parents, prepare to cry your eyes out , but in a happy way). Back to school in Madison ,Al will begin on Aug 19^th in 2013.So what does this mean? It means hurry and get  your last minute school supplies and don’t forget the coolest new styles to model around the halls. Lucky for me, my boys aren't to into name brands yet, they just like shirts with their favorite cartoons on them. But that’s not the most exciting part is it?

It’s time for new beginnings, time to try new things. Play a new sport , meet a new friend ,trust a new teacher, and read a new book. It’s time to learn! Then before you know it, the leaves will be changing ,the air will be crisp and Fall will sneak up on us like a beautiful surprise. Soon it actually will be CHRISTMAS! Wait, I haven’t bought any presents yet! OK ,NOBODY PANIC!! Right now let’s just get our Madison kids crew  back to school.

So for our Family we have

·        Backpacks √

·        School supplies √

·        Nervous kiddos √

·        Snack Boxes √

·        Small teacher gift  √

Yes, we send a cute little teacher gift for the first day of school. Why? Are we just BIG OL’KiSS Up’s? Well, kind of.

With a Child that has ADHD and another that just knows EVERYTHING,I feel like a little ground work never hurts.(grin)

The absolute true reason we do it is because I have many teacher friends, My Husband  is in School to teach, and I have worked as a childcare professional, so I KNOW that on BACK TO SCHOOL, Teacher’s deserve a small token of thanks.

You can find a few idea's HERE on my Pinterest Board DIY GIFTS! Feel Free to Follow me. 

 HAPPY BACK TO SCHOOL!

Craft Fair at Dublin Park

Dublin Park is one of our family's favorite places to go in Madison. 

From the pond to the playground,there is always something for us to enjoy.Now I'm even more excited to go in August to the Craft Fair. Yessss! Hand crafted items are my favorite things to give(and get) as gifts but I don't always have the Time or Talent to make everything I want . That is just one of the reason's I support local artist. Madison has a lot of Talent from Musicians,Farmers(the Farmers Market is a MUST SEE),to Artist. I love living in such a beautiful and talent filled place.

The City of Madison Parks and Recreation Department will be hosting the 1st Annual Arts and Crafts Fair at Dublin park. The event will be an indoor event and is open to Vendors that showcase handmade items.

See you There!

Madison Alabama is a great place to Live.

Are you thinking of making the move to beautiful Madison Alabama? 

It is a beautiful little suburb of Huntsville and a great place to call home. Here is a welcome intro from the official Madisonal.gov webpage. 

Thank you for wanting to learn more about Madison, Alabama! Founded in 1869, Madison is located 10 miles west of Huntsville. We’re known for our high quality schools, quaint downtown, proximity to Huntsville International Airport, festivals, walking trails, and family fun!

 Madison is a city of 42,938 people and growing. Within the 5 mile ring from downtown Madison over 51,391 people live in 20,818 households with a 2010 estimated avg. household income of $85,191 – 48.5% of households have an income greater than $75,000.(source: STDB) Over 450 businesses call Madison home and enjoy our lower cost of doing business in a high quality market of educated professionals and hardworking labor force. 

Our largest employers are Intergraph Corporation, Madison City Schools, STI Electronics, and Tyonek, among other growing businesses. Madison’s character is found in its rolling hills, familyfriendliness, graceful trees, recreational opportunities, and excellent schools. 

Open space and recreation abound with hundreds of acres of park land and greenways, a skate park, miniature golf course, swimming pool, the Rainbow Mountain Preserve, historic downtown and the new state of the art YMCA. The railroad arrived in 1856, bringing freight lines and business growth to Madison Station as it was called then.

 Until nearly 1960, cotton production has remained a major industry. Madison citizens are actively involved in decision-making through a wide range of commissions and civic organizations. Our healthy business climate is augmented and maintained through City partnerships with the Madison Chamber of Commerce, Madison Station Historic Preservation Commission, and volunteer work. 

With regularly scheduled festivals and events, downtown Madison is a place to connect with others, whether for lunch or dinner, shopping, or getting to see history firsthand. Stop in any business in town and you will know Madison is a welcoming place, offering professional opportunities.

 Home to excellent schools, library, and parks, we’re a great place to raise children – and a town people are proud to say they live in and children love to grow up in. Madison offers small town advantages
