No apologies for being the mom who celebrates all the “firsts”. Little ones are a source of inexhaustible magic for the however long we allow them to be and in the midst of global sadness I’m here for the joy! After seeing the look of pure joy on Claire’s face on the swing I immediately […]
Rhythm & Roots 2019
Bristol’s Rhythm & Roots Reunion is a music and art festival held every 3rd weekend in September on the state line between Tennessee and Virginia.

Graze Burgers
Girls night out has been scheduled at Graze for months now and after 2 failed attempts the third time was the charm! I’m excited to see how downtown Sevierville looks in the near future. How great would it be to have more restaurants and maybe even (Heaven help us) a brewery?
FunFest: Breakfast with the Balloons
I don’t get out of bed early for just any occasion but I happily made an exception for hot air balloons. They make me feel like I’m in a story book or a fairy tale with their rainbow colors and promise of carrying me away.

Wild Vine at Zoo Knoxville
Last Friday we went to Wild Vine at Zoo Knoxville to raise money for animal conservation. Drinking wine for charity? Wild animals couldn’t stop me! To be honest, they were the main event.
Main Event Knoxville
There’s no better way to blow off steam after a long work week than going somewhere fun with friends. Main Event more than fit the bill for our crew with a massive arcade, a bowling alley, billiards, and laser tag. To top it all off they have a restaurant and bar in-house. We each purchased […]
Best Brunch Spot in Pigeon Forge
Brunch spots are hard to come by in my neck of the woods so I was thrilled to try out Brick & Spoon. It’s tucked away on Community Center Drive next to Walden’s Landing. They have a full menu and extensive drink selections including coffee drinks, mimosas, and Bloody Mary’s piled high with just about […]
A Look Inside Dolly Parton’s Song & Hearth Restaurant
Dollywood’s DreamMore Resort provides an opportunity for park goers and visitors to “stay and play” in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Their in-house restaurant, Song & Hearth, serves up casual elegance that will make you feel right at home and the best part is that no one has to fight over who cleans the dishes. I was […]
