Wanna see some interesting historic houses? Galveston Historical Foundation opens the doors to Galveston’s incredible architectural history through public tours of privately owned homes during its annual Galveston Historic Homes Tour. Tours will be held on May 5, 6, 12 and 13 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tickets are $30 for non-members before May 1 and $35 after and are available online at www.galvestonhistory.org. Members of Galveston Historical Foundation can purchase specially priced $25 tickets by calling 409-765-3405 or by visiting any of GHF’s retail locations.
“This year we highlight several houses featured on prior tours as a ‘rehabilitation in progress house.’ The before and after projects show great personal style, but still respect the history and architecture that makes our island’s properties so unique,” says Dwayne Jones, Galveston Historical Foundation’s Executive Director. “You will not want to miss this extraordinary line up of historic homes, from small to large, that will make you want your own architectural project in Galveston.”

My younger son was a late walker, and as a new mom I was in a panic. Thanks to advice from friends and our pediatrician, I had my son evaluated for free by Easter Seals' Early Childhood Intervention program. Early intervention services help young children with disabilities and developmental delays achieve their goals in cognitive, social/emotional, communicative, adaptive and physical development. If your child isn't meeting developmental milestones like babbling, crawling, feeding, talking and walking by certain ages, they may qualify for extra help.
