Stadium High School is one of the top things to see in Tacoma, Washington. (You can even go on a tour of it here!)
This historical landmark is known as one of the prettiest high schools in the country. Do you know what famous movie it was featured in? The answer is in my most popular Reel to date!
But how did this insanely cool architectural wonder become a public school? Well, I’m glad you asked …
We’ve been doing swim lessons at the Tom Taylor YMCA in Gig Harbor all winter long.
Perks have been small class sizes (9ish kids registered but only 3-4 show up, open swim options, family locker rooms and even showers!
A transformative middle-earth adventure awaits you at The Brothers Greenhouses in western Washington – and it’s a masterpiece.
Patterson’s autumn attractions offered a little bowling game, rubber ducky derby water spout races and a ball toss game. And it’s all free.
When we first moved to our new house, I knew the downstairs fireplace was going to be special. It just needed a refresh. I’m happy to report that four panels of @lovevsdesign’s Custom color peel and stick removable wallpaper in the Magnolia Tree print did just the trick!
I’d like to go on record that for the first time in the history of ever, our holiday cards were some of the very first on our friends’ fridges this year. We went with @basicinvite on the design and they rocked it!
From learning activities that show children the world to family-friendly board games, here are some quick-hit buys for the kids this holiday.
Yesterday we hiked – in the rain! We came prepared with waterproof jackets, so this California girl actually thought it was pretty magical. This kidventure started at the Tacoma Nature Center. We met up with new school friends there to explore its forest-inspired Discovery Pond playground, where all its play structures are designed to look like boulders and trees. There’s a treehouse, climbing rocks and a metal slide inside a hollow log! All made complete with slatted bridges and little creeks to explore.
Save this post for your PNW Bucket List! Here we are at Bella Bella Beach, a new-to-us spot on Fox Island. It’s officially called the Tacoma DeMolay Sandspit, but the locals here call it by the name of the road it’s on. Does telling you this make us locals yet? 😉
An outdoor rooftop pool – a rarity in rainy Washington – and a jetted jacuzzi spa inside our room are just some of the reasons Bowen and loved our 10-year (#hosted 🙌🏻) anniversary trip to Tacoma’s brand new @silvercloud.pointruston hotel.
