I think we’re all ready for life to return to normal as we head into spring and look forward to summertime fun. I know you missed your loved ones and heartbroken to have missed out on the many family events or celebrations over the past month or so, me too!
As our country begins to open up, Let’s get back to normal or perhaps a better you. Did you get the down time; the “rest and relaxation” you needed?
Family seems more important these days as “absence makes the heart grow fonder” rings true. Perhaps, you’re finding the silver lining of this quarantine to really spend quality time with your kids and family.
I know it’s been a rough few weeks, okay, maybe it feels like forever!
What did you do to get the most out of being at home? Are you still adjusting to working from home with your children underfoot….and being teacher, Principal and a Chef!
Do you feel like you’re running your own restaurant! There have been so many super hero stories of people helping people, neighbors helping neighbors.
As we move closure to May and Mother’s Day, I hope it will be extra special this year!
You need a big hug! You have done an amazing job getting through… and you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Kinda symbolic, don’t you think? Right after Easter, the Spring Season and all?
Is it too early to think about Mother’s Day? It will be the first national holiday we can (of course, carefully following guidelines) get together – with friends, loved ones and party!
If you think Mom has everything and you have no idea how to make this day special, I’ve gotcha some help!
Nothing saves “I love you” like pictures! So, if you can’t think of a single thing, and we’ve got ideas in the photo below, remember Mom loves photographs of her children. (ok, I certainly do! – hint hint!)
So this list might have first been thought of forChristmas, but these are great ideas for Mom – for any occasion! I would also add our clothes, and accessories. Of course, teaching your mother how to save and defend her life is “priceless”. Our clothes will have Mom in style whether she carries a firearm or pepper spray, she’ll never be a victim.
I’m guessing these past few weeks have really made you more aware of how you can best protect your family Take comfort in that you’re not alone. If you one of the many new gun owners since this virus invaded us, you appreciate the 2nd Amendment more and the sense of empowerment this new found skill gives you. Now that you’ve realized that you are the “First Responder” to your situation, I urge you to keep up with the practice and the training.

If this isn’t you, I urge you to think about this reality and to empower others. Learning to drive a car at 16, gave you a great sense of freedom, independence and empowerment. Being able to defend your life can give you so much more. There are a lot of options from guns / firearms to pepper spray, stun gun, striking tools and more.
This Mother’s Day, honor MOM by teaching her situational awareness and the ability to defend her life. After all, you wouldn’t be here without Mom.

Last week, during the NRA Personal Protection Expo (PPE), in Ft. Worth, Texas, was a First Class Fashion Show in camo; albeit not the typical red carpet, lights or celebrities one might expect as such a coveted fashion event.
Just what is a Concealed Carry Fashion Show in camo? It’s what we keep hidden in plain sight that makes this a highlighted event during the PPE so spectacular.
This show was how the concealed is revealed for men and women on ways to be armed but not appear as such. Participants strutted their stuff down the catwalk in new fashionable clothing, holsters, concealed carry purses and more on how live a lifestyle of safety and own one’s personal protection.

If you’ve been “meaning to” learn about firearms and your safety – this is the place to be. Not only will you have the best of the best of instructors teaching but hundreds of vendors supplying everything you would need from clothing, gadgets and tools, firearms, ammo – even an opportunity to shoot on a live fire range – all in one place!
It’s never too late to learn to shoot. Learning to operate a firearm will
give you confidence and skills for survival. Becoming educated about firearms
gives you knowledge and an understanding of Gun Safety. Gun safety is critical
and so important to pass on to others. Whether it be for hunting, shooting
sports (for fun and it reduces stress), or self-defense and personal
protection. It’s important to pass this precious right to bear arms on to the
next generation.
There is value in passing skills on to the next generation. Hunting is a
great way to grow a friendship. Many life lessons happen around a campfire
(after the hunt). Hunters are ethical and play a huge role in maintaining the
health of herds of wild animals – deer, duck, turkey, etc.
As August – National Shooting Sports Month draws to a close, check your local range for special events for introducing someone new to the exciting sport of firearms. It may save someone’s life!
You’re timing is great, because in a less than 2 weeks, is a fun filled packed weekend to give you all the information from the best of the best in the firearms industry at the Personal Protection Expo in Ft. Worth. See you in booth #1809! 🙂
In case you are traveling to Texas, as I am, here’s some things to note regarding Texas gun /concealed carry laws. Always research ahead of a destination.
According to US Concealed Carry, “you may Open carry or concealed carry with a Texas License to Carry (LTC) or a concealed carry license/permit from a state with reciprocity, provided the handgun is in a shoulder or belt holster. The minimum age is 21 years old or 18 years old for active-duty military. Some areas are off-limits, including racetracks and secure areas of airports.”
