Discovery Girls ~ Cover Creator App & Magazine Subscription Giveaway

        Discovery Girls Magazine is the go to guide for navigating the years as you child becomes a tween and teen.  My two daughters who are 9 & 10 look forward to each new issue.  I skim through the pages first, then they read through themselves.  After they finish we talk about some of the articles and situations discussed in the magazine.  Discovery Girls Magazine is a great conversation starter!  As a parent,  I love how encouraging and empowering the magazine is for our youth!

       I just recently caught up with technology and purchased a smartphone.  I'm amazed at all of the apps available on my iPhone!! Discovery Girls has an app ~ Cover Creators allows you to take a normal picture and turn the picture into a magazine cover in just a few simple steps. The app is super easy to use!                                                                                                                                       

Using the Cover Creator App is very easy and the options are endless!  You are able to take a brand new photo or use one from your photo library. Once you have you photo selected,  you can use several templates or create your own unique cover.  My daughters loved the many options available and had a complete blast coming up with new titles for their magazine cover! They are very competitive and the app gave them a chance to create positive statements about each other for their covers.  I found the Help tab to be very informative and not to be cliche' but.. helpful!  The tab includes tip for picture taking, editing, and FAQ's! The best feature is every photo is saved directly to your camera roll!  I started out with a picture of my beautiful daughter, Sky!  In just a few seconds this was the cover we created! She thought Cover Creator was fabulous! Sky is eager to share her moment in the spotlight with her friends!

SpaceX Makes History!

   At 2:00am, I woke the kiddos up from their slumber to make the mad dash to SpaceX's McGregor TX Test Facility.  Surrounded by our SpaceX Texas family, we watched in awe as the rocket made a flawless launch into space! The vibe in the room was amazing! To be surrounded by a such group of talented men and women, made me swell with pride from within! My husband is one of the hundreds of men and women who have poured their heart and soul into making history! Now we await the Dragon to berth with the International Space Station...
