It’s summer, it’s hot…the last thing you need to do is turn on your oven in the afternoon or slave over a hot stove. I’m convinced it was some genius mom (with a marketing background) that came up with the idea of “Kids Eat Free”. I mean you really can’t beat it. You don’t cook, […]
Lots to do and see this week…food trucks, live bats, ballet under the stars, library exhibits, storytime and more. The summer fun just rolls on around here, and we are thankful for it.

I found the solution to this heat, Charlotte! Look no further: Sky High Sports in Pineville is THE place to be on these hot summer days. The AC is BLASTING and the music is PUMPING. ScoopCharlotte spent Friday afternoon jumping, flipping, and bouncing in a super cool facility. Literally. The kids (nor I) didn’t want to leave! The football […]

Ah, the beach. You know what I love about the beach? It’s so easy. You just go out there, plant yourself in the sand and enjoy the day. You don’t need a thing. Except sunscreen. And a hat, because you don’t want the sun pounding your face all day while you’re trying to count kids. […]

Ah summer. The big skies, blue pools, sandy beaches, sunset picnics. Not. Suddenly everyone is in your kitchen, snacking from dawn to dusk, aka noon to midnight, with cups & utensils accumulating on every surface of your house. Dirty clothes and kid detritus are making an hourly migration off the bedroom floor to nest in […]
