Hi, welcome to MasonMetu, from Me to You. I love living in Mason, Ohio /Deerfield Township, Warren County and the Greater Cincinnati area since it has so much to offer for families. I hope MasonMetu will be a a one-stop, easy to use resource to find family-friendly activities and adventures you can embark upon. You can start at MasonMetu Home for info on what MasonMetu is all about. You can even do some shopping in the MasonMetu Marketplace.

MasonMetu™ Blog
Here you’ll find my blog where I write about some of my own experiences as a Mom as well as post some awesome giveaways. I’ll highlight certain features of MasonMetu that you might like to check out.
Thank you for reading my blog posts. I hope you can laugh along with me, preferably not at me. :) I've had fun writing the posts and I've found it is a great way to journal moments in our lives. One day when my girls are older, I'll be able to share these posts with them.
On some browsers (Internet Explorer), you may need to click on the current blog post in order to see the ghosts of blogs past - then it opens back up into the main blog page and you have to scroll down again for all the posts. I know it's a bit confusing but I'm not quite sure how to work that bug out of the system yet.

I've been happily married to Chris since 1995 and I'm currently a stay at home Mom to two girls, K & S and we have a chocolate lab, Bailey. I have a M.A. in Hearing & Speech Sciences from Ohio University (1994), a B.S. from O.U (1992), & I graduated from Middletown High School (1988). I have one older brother, and two younger brothers. We grew up in Jamestown and Olean, NY then moved to Middletown in 1986. I'm close to my parents,a.k.a Cici & Pee-Paw, and do lots of FOD's with them (see tab for more details). I enjoy reading, blogging, watching all my shows and spending time with friends and family.

Mom to Mom
When I was “gainfully employed” (I’m not sure why I had to add the gainfully but I’ve always heard that saying…..maybe it should’ve been “painfully employed” or “I need to work because I need the money employed”), I used to enjoy my commute to work. Why? I got to listen to NPR – National Public Radio. I loved my time with NPR. I liked listening to Morning Edition on the way to work and hearing the familiar voices of Rene Montagne, Steve Inskeep, Carl Kassel and Frank De... Continue reading ...

Give Aways
I've been getting the REACH savings magazine for years. I actually read it cover to cover to see what great deals they have.

Of course, I then have to remember to get it out and it's sometime difficult to remember all the great deals inside, but now with the eReach Big Deal, it's even easier for me to see some great deals. Every day, I get an email telling me what today's Big Deal is. If it's one that I'l... Continue reading ...

We've got 6 days to go until summer vacation and even though I've got the girls signed up for some summer camps & VBS's (thank you Deerfield Township, Whole Foods Market, MAD Camp, & King of Kings), I thought it would be fun for the girls to list three things they'd like to do over summer break.
