Bamahenge & Dinosaurs in the Woods // Alabama

The moment I found out there was a full scale, although not complete, fiberglass replica of Stonehenge (named Bamahenge) less than an hour away from our house I made plans to visit. Jeff and I have been to the real Stonehenge in the U.K. but never got around to taking the boys. They were familiar […]

Weeks Bay Pitcher Plant Bog, Alabama // Photos

The Gulf Coast is the natural home of many of the world’s carnivorous plants. These Gulf Coast Pitcher Plant bogs are unique habitats that exist nowhere else on earth. Pitcher plants bloom in the spring, but even a fall visit or winter visit to the Weeks Bay Pitcher Plant Bog can be spectacular. Our visit […]

The Secretly Awesome Tour of Mobile with WildNative Tours

The Secretly Awesome Tour of Mobile, operated by WildNative Tours, is a family-friendly two-hour boat trip through the harbor, the bay and the estuary. It is an incredible opportunity to see what makes Mobile unique and learn about industry and nature. It left us wanting to see more of Mobile. We took the Secretly Awesome […]

De Soto National Memorial & Jr. Ranger Program // Florida

We completely underestimated everything De Soto National Memorial had to offer. We stopped by on a recent trip to Tampa thinking we would spend a few minutes in the visitors center, but instead we closed it down. We spent all afternoon completing the Jr. Ranger Program and exploring the beautiful waterfront property. The biggest tip […]

Canoeing Blackwater River // Florida

This post contains affiliate links. On a beautiful fall weekend in October we joined some friends, who have older kids, on a canoeing trip at Blackwater River State Park. All our adventures as of late seem to be centered around water. The kids continue to be more confident on the water, which makes the trips […]

Mermaids at Weeki Wachee Springs // Florida

Have you heard about the Mermaids at Weeki Wachee Springs State Park? A visit to this legendary park has been on our Florida bucket list since moving here a year ago. We finally stopped by in conjunction with a trip to Tampa. Weeki Wachee was originally founded in 1947 as a tourist attraction in the […]

Take A Kid Fishing Day// Navarre, FL

Each year in early October, Navarre hosts Take A Kid Fishing Day as part of the Fish Navarre Weekend. We were so excited to go this year and learn everything we needed to know about fishing in Navarre! First things first, if this is your first time you need to register online before the event. […]

Tarpon Springs, Florida

A stop in Tarpon Springs is a must when planning a Florida Road trip. Who can resist a greek town overflowing with natural sponges. A half day is all you will need to enjoy this adorable, albeit kitschy stop along Florida’s Gulf Coast. The main drag of Tarpon Springs is spread out over a few […]

Floating the Natural Lazy River at Kelly Park Rock Springs Run

This post contains affiliate links. There are very few things I love more than a lazy river. When I heard about Kelly Park Rock Springs‘ natural lazy river, I added it to our Florida bucket list. Turns out it is an hour north of Orlando, making it super easy to reach on nearly any trip […]

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party with Little Kids

This post contains affiliate links. Our late August visit to Disney World overlapped with one of the first ays of Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. I jumped at the chance to add this special experience to our trip. As it drew closer I read every report about the party that I could find. I […]
