This month marks the second anniversary of the Asheville Pinball Museum – and they’re in their second location! The APM moved to the other side of the building a few months ago, to allow for more customers and just as important, more pinball machines. (Their address is 1 Battle Square, Suite 1A in downtown Asheville, […]

Splasheville fun! #Asheville #avlfun #OutAboutNC
I took the boy to Splasheville on Saturday with plans of staying at least an hour, probably longer. He was in the water around 40 minutes before he was too cold. If you are local, you REALLY must get downtown to check out Splasheville! It’s free, and it’s great to cure boredom during the summer. […]

I’m guest posting over at Mom Favorites as part of her summer vacation series! Check out the blog for things you must try to see if you get to visit Asheville over the summer (or anytime, really.)

Wordless Wednesday: A walk around Asheville, NC #WordlessWednesday
A little (almost) Wordless Wednesday for today. We spent Monday morning in downtown Asheville. I do love my city! What is your favorite part about the city you live in?

Chuggington Live! Coming to an arena near you…. #avlfun #avl #ChuggingtonLive
It took my son some time, but this past year he finally got on board with trains. He saw a wooden set at a local toy store last fall and fell in love. We bought a used set from a friend of mine, and it’s been one of the greatest purchases ever. (Chuggington, Thomas, my […]
Things to do with kids in Asheville
I live in a tourist destination. When I visit other tourist-y destinations, I research (a lot) on what we can do with our toddler. This wasn’t an issue until 3.5 years ago, when our boy was born. Before we could just get up and go (within reason) and didn’t have to worry about a little […]
Adventure at the WNC Nature Center @friendswildwnc #avlfun
My husband bought family passes to the WNC Nature Center as a Christmas gift. We’ve gone several times since then and each time hasn’t disappointed. I had spring break early last week (I’m fortunate enough to get a spring break. Not so lucky to get an entire week, though.) I kept the boy home from […]
Asheville Shamrock Run 5k (race review)
Years ago, I ran the Shamrock 10k in Asheville. It was my first 10k race and it was part of an 18-mile training run I was doing in preparation for my first marathon. The race was tough. So hilly and cold. My iPod had stopped playing because of the cold. And most of our team […]
Snow day in Asheville NC #outaboutNC #snomg
We finally had a decent snow. The temperatures also warmed up by the afternoon so the roads weren’t super treacherous and the snow began melting. It was the perfect mix of fun and practicality (we have to go back to work!) Our neighbors (and Lucas’ friend) called early to see if we were interested in […]
