Who remembers the nostalgic days of your local county fair — the exhilarating rides, the yummy street food, and sounds of games being played by ALL ages in hopes of the largest stuffed animal you’ll never need. 😉🎡 Continue reading “Sunday Funday Williamson County Fair”
If you’ve been following LtL for a while, you know my fond affections to hiking with my family. We used to hike quite frequently when we lived in the Pacific Northwest – one summer I actually set out a goal to hike 100 miles before we left Washington! While we didn’t rack up that many miles, we did our best and had a blast making the memories in the mean time. Since moving to Tennessee last year, I still wanted to make it a point to find kid friendly trails around Nashville and continue making those special memories with my family. Recently I found a kid friendly hike just south of us near Columbia that led to a beautiful waterfall! Continue reading “Day Trip Near Nashville – Hiking With a Toddler”
Last Friday I stepped outside my comfort zone and into a place of friendly faces and good food. With my experience of moving and starting over, I’ve learned that the only way to build a community is by being open, open, open!

If you just search through some hashtags and adventuring photographer’s feeds you’re bound to stumble across a number of things of interest! When it comes to hiking, I’ll usually take the next step in my research reconnaissance and google the trail or park and see what other hikers are saying about the conditions of the trails, difficulty, and whether or not it’s kid friendly.

You know what’s great about snow days?? Aside from the obvious wintery wonderland that’s cast on everything around you? Getting caught up on your blog and doing some well-overdue spring cleaning on the site! You may have noticed a few new aesthetics and menu options here on LtL. Apparently blogs are just like people – they need some TLC, a little sprucing up and evolve over time (when you put the work in). 😉 So for 2018 I’ve given her a few changes and additions that will hopefully be beneficial in the new year and you’ll find helpful in navigating the site!
