About Me

Mom, Writer, Photographer

Hi! I’m Addie and I love to have fun! I have written for local websites for the past 6 years and decided to start my own thing, so here I am. Welcome! I’m always out and about with my family, finding cool stuff to do, and then sharing it here with you.

I’m so grateful to be able to share my experiences with you, and love to play even a small part in helping you find fun things to do with your family.

Hope to see you out there having fun!

About

📍 Commons Ford Ranch Metropolitan Park
☀️ Looks like it’ll be great hiking weather this weekend! 😎
🌱 Stay on the trail- lots of poison ivy here. I recommend getting the Seek app and take pics of the plants you’re not sure of! 📷
🥾 We did the 2 mile waterfall loop trail. Another great app for this hike is @alltrails because this hike can be tricky to figure out!

😎 Teens in Austin: Rage Room
We went to @thebreakingpoint_atx yesterday to check out their rage room. Anyone 13 and up can go smash things for 30 minutes ($40). Would make a fun teen birthday party or even a fun Mom’s Night Out (while you’re PMSing 😆)
🎨 They also have a splatter paint room, 🪓 axe throwing, and 🔐 and escape room.
