“RBG, also affectionately known as ‘Minster Ginster’ to my kids, is loved like a good friend at our house. My daughter thought she would meet her soon and asks about her often. Today we mourn with heavy hearts and think of her family. She left a strong legacy for boys and girls alike that will live on. #whentherearenine “ - Amy G. #notoriousrbg #rbg

So I might be cleaning out backpacks in prep for middle school return next week. They have been sitting in the kids' closets since March.

I am not sure why I am sharing this other than to say if you are just doing your best each day, that is enough, no matter what it looks like. -Christa

Want to explore public art in the area? Find these murals downtown from Clinton Row and Greene Street to Big Spring Park East and Lowe Mill!

Jana Seikel and her son Wyatt went on a morning date! With plenty of restaurants along the way, it’s a perfect way to spend a morning or afternoon.

🍎 Scott's Orchard will start pick-your-own apple days September 7th, and will continue each week on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays for the remainder of September and October until all the apples have been picked. NEW THIS YEAR: Kids can jump on the new Apple Bounce Pad and race on the Trike Track! Picnicking is also encouraged at Scott’s Orchard’s lush and socially-distanced picnic tables. 🍏

The late Chadwick Boseman delivered powerful performances of historical figures: Jackie Robinson, James Brown and Thurgood Marshall.

But I think most parents and children are going to remember him as Black Panther. The superhero who proved that representation matters and box office records reflected that.

We have seen so many touching photos of children honoring his legacy and wanted to share this one of two-year-old Eissa Lott. #wakandaforever 🙅🏾

We are celebrating 100 years of (mostly white) women voting and 55 years of everyone being able to vote!

We plan on visiting the #ThisGirlCan mural this weekend.

Don’t forget to check out our local election guide. It is a easy way to learn about candidates and what they are planning for our community.

August 25th is the next chance you have to exercise your right to vote.

It’s Huntsville Restaurant Week and the perfect time to celebrate all things yummy in the Rocket City! We ordered @phukethsv and had it delivered - it’s ALWAYS a family favorite, and I really love how much they are giving back to the community during Covid. Check our website for a whole list of kid-friendly Huntsville Restaurant Week specials and find out how you can even win big just by using #dinehsv and supporting local businesses.

Congratulations to the @rocketcenterusa for earning “most model rocket kits launched simultaneously” from @guinnessworldrecords. 🎉

We were there last year as they attempted to launch 5,000 rockets more than 100 feet in the air. They ended up with 4,923 rockets that met the criteria 🚀

Last year was magical with the #Apollo50 celebrations. We are proud what our community can do with the highs and lows. 💕

We are in love with the newest mural downtown to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the 19 Amendment that allowed women to vote.

You can find it at Washington Street next to @themartinbar. The artist, @kimradfordartist, chose the young girl as a symbol of our civic responsibility to nurture the generations before and after us.

The 3-story mural will be dedicated by the WEDC and @artshuntsville on August 18th, the centennial of when the amendment was ratified.

📍: 112 Washington Street, Huntsville, AL 35801

We get it. All of this... is a lot. Parents are worrying about a laundry list of things and it can quickly get to be too much. ⁠
⁠
The University of Alabama sponsors a Parenting Assistance Line for the state - PAL - that you can text or call 1-866-962-3030 from 9 a.m till 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, and speak with an experienced counselor.

Put that number in your phone, and don't be afraid to call. We are so glad we did.⁠
