No trip to Pittsburgh is complete without a stop at the zoo! Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium is one of only six major zoo and aquarium combinations in the United States and is home to more than 8,000 animals representing over 600 species. Currently they also have dinosaurs throughout the zoo and some interesting plants species to go with the theme. Speaking of themes, the zoo features so many special details and exhibits, making it one of our favorites.

We took a trip to Pittsburgh this weekend and stopped by Moon Park. It has FOUR playgrounds and a small splash pad with water features. Two of the playgrounds are space-themed, my youngest loved the area that looks like you’ve landed on another planet. They have a nature themed area and a dinosaur themed sandpit. It is a definite must do if you are in the Pittsburgh area!

📍 Moon Park, 1350 Joe DeNardo Way, Moon Twp, PA 15108

Life is stressful. Getting fresh, locally grown produce doesn’t have to be! We can’t think of a better way to spend a Tuesday. There is still time to join Greg's U-Pick Farm Summer CSA!

When our weekends include errands, we love to see what free little libraries are near us and make a stop! Did you know that there is a little free library app?? It makes finding registered charters SO easy! Happy Saturday! 📚

Splash pad season has finally arrived! What are some of your favorites??

The splash pad on Richmond Ave in Lancaster is always a hit! They have an accessible porta potty on site, a shelter with a couple picnic tables and more seating closer to the splash pad. Aside from the shelter, there is no other shade, so just something to keep in mind.
