At Dream Builders Realty, we know the importance of taking an active role in the community we serve. One way we do this is through the support of local education. Our series on school features shows exactly what this area has to offer when it comes to education. 

This week we are featuring another local school, shifting gears from sharing about the high schools in Osceola County (don't worry, we have a few more to finish off the list) to focus on Bellalago Academy. This district-managed charter school offers guaranteed placement for grades K-8 to children of families who live in the community of Bellalago.

The first month of 2016 is over and we are heading into February (already!?). This means we have 3 Central Florida events for you to check out, a few of which allow you to enjoy the practically perfect weather we've been having here lately. We're pretty sure our friends and family in the north are jealous anytime they take a look at pictures shared on Facebook or Instagram by us Floridians. But these events (and our weather) are just another reason why Florida is one of the best places to call home.

 Watch Jurassic World at the new Kissimmee Lakefront Park

Kissimmee Utility Authority and the City of Kissimmee partner together on the first Friday of every month to host a Movie in the Park extravaganza that features free admission, popcorn, a kid's inflatable zone, trivia contests, prize giveaways and the showing of a different movie on a massive 14-foot LED screen for the community. This month, they have chosen the hit film Jurassic World. The activities will begin at 6 pm on Friday, February 6th with the movie starting at 7 pm. They suggest you bring blankets, lawn chairs and a picnic dinner (oh, and of course, your favorite people to spend the evening with)! 

Four weeks of winter, you say? Yes, that is pretty accurate for us Floridians. 

Living in a state like Florida, which tends to have mild winter weather, is a plus for many people. Maybe you haven't realized it yet yourself, though.  We thought it might be fun to come up with a list of reasons why everyone should appreciate living somewhere that only has four weeks of winter.
