🌷Daffodils, light up ornaments & tree lighting!

Is it just me, or did the holiday season sneak up on anyone else this year? I swear we were just picking out Halloween costumes, and suddenly it’s time for tree lightings and ornament crafts! The good news? Mother Nature is giving us the absolute gift of perfect mid-November weather this weekend! We’re talking sunny days and highs near 70°F and cool, crisp evenings.

🎭 Willy Wonka, holiday markets & lobster, oh my!

🎯 Weekend Activities - Issue #2

Hey Rocket City Parents! 👋That's another week in the books! With the cooler weather rolling in, we've been getting some absolutely wild storms lately. (Anyone else's kids glued to the windows watching the lightning?) But honestly, I think it's all worth it as we start sliding into October - there's something magical about fall in North Alabama!I've been scouring the community calendars and found some fantastic weekend activities that'll get your little scientists, engineers, and explorers excited. Plus, a few non-STEM gems that are just too good to pass up!
