How's that Holiday Shopping going?? At a standstill? Stumped what to give that hard to buy for person?
In lieu of trying to find that perfect gift, consider these ideas. I have put together a list of fun activities available in the Central Texas area that you can give an individual or a family this holiday season. Not in Central Texas? Maybe this list will give you some great ideas to look for in your area.
