All the Best Drive-In Movie Theaters in Kentucky
One of the greatest things about summer is catching a movie at a drive-in theater. Drive-Ins have been around since the 1930s, and there’s something about them that seems to transport you back in time! There are only about 300 of these theaters left around the country, and we are fortunate to have some amazing options in and around Kentucky! Check out this list to find one near you, and start planning a perfect, nostalgic night for your summer bucket list.

Our Summer Bucket List
Every year when we return from vacation I feel that kind of sadness that summer is almost over and I haven’t done enough “summery” activites. This year I decided to jot down a little summer bucket list on the way home and we’ve been crossing lots of things off our list since our return. There’s still plenty of time left this summer to do all the fun things with your friends and family and really you can continue to do many of these things into fall as well! Some of the items I listed are specific to Lexington, Kentucky but you can definitely customize to something similar in your area. I’ve also included a blank summer bucket list template if you want to fill out your own! Enjoy and let me know what you’re excited to try first!
My Favorite Mom-Friendly Swimsuits for the Summer
This isn’t my typical post but I have had a lot of requests for links to the swimsuits I wore on our vacation earlier this month. If you’re looking for a mom-friendly but stylish swimsuit, I’ve done all the hard work for you. I had zero time to shop before we left on our trip so I ordered WAY too many bathing suits and test them all out to find the best of the best. Here are my favorites that cover all those mama lumps and bumps, are comfy enough for chasing around a toddler, but also are cute and trendy too!
Shop the Design: Crisp, Modern, + Neutral Bedroom Design {McGee and Co. Look for Less}
One of my biggest design inspirations that I love to follow is Mcgee and Co. / Studio Mcgee. I love the simplicity and timeless feel of all their designs- super crisp and clean but also so warm. Recently I pulled together this design board for a client’s guest bedroom that reminded me of their designs, but definitely using more budget friendly pieces! I wanted to share this in case you might be looking to duplicate the same kind of high-end look for less! I shared shopping links to everything I used (and some extra similar items) below!

One Room Challenge: Playroom Makeover - FINAL REVEAL!
I can’t believe week 8 is already here and that somehow I got this playroom DONE! I must admit, I took on a few too many DIY projects with this one but I also had so much FUN each step of the way. I learned a lot and we now have an amazing playroom for JW that I know he will enjoy for many, many years to come. Not to mention, my husband and I love this space so much that we have even been hanging out in here after he’s already asleep at night! If you’ve been following me on social media, you’ve likely already seen some after photos of the space but this post will be a complete round up of every project, every item linked to shop, and overall my design process for the entire space!
