"Just turn around and get out of your comfort zone a little bit. Realize there is a life and a world outside of what you know, and it may impact your life in a very positive way." Leigh Anne Tuohy, Making It Happen

NOT ready for some football?
If the thought of watching the Super Bowl 50 holds no appeal for you, turn the channel to Animal Planet on the big day. The Puppy Bowl features darling puppies from shelters across the U.S. “playing” football. With a kitty half-time show, the two hour special offers some serious cuteness for the non-football fan. The special loops from 3 p.m. to 3 a.m. so even if you are watching the true game, you can still tune in to Puppy Bowl. Just be prepared for the kids to beg to adopt a pup for weeks afterward!
