Wonders of Wildlife National Museum and Aquarium
Magical is exactly the word - but in a “how is this place even real?” kind of way. The Wonders of Wildlife Museum in Springfield is immersive, beautiful, massive, and honestly a little overwhelming in the best possible way. You don’t just walk through exhibits; you feel like you’re stepping into completely different parts of the world.

Little Gourmand French Bakery
Little Gourmand is the kind of place where you walk in thinking you’ll just browse and immediately want one of everything. Everything looks so good - the pastries, breads, desserts, little specialty items - that narrowing it down feels nearly impossible.

Nashville Farmer’s Market
My family and I love going to the Nashville Farmer’s Market! There are many different vendors selling fresh produce, flowers, honey, coffee, meat, baked goods, clothing, jewelry, and more! There’s also a huge plant section both indoor and outdoor with all types of plants, pots, and gifts. Inside, you’ll find food like Indian, bbq, and Asian foods. My kids also enjoy getting a bubble tea. Enjoy live music, get some great food, and leave with some treasures. You won’t regret it!

Fish store
We went multiple times to get fish, plants, and even a snail! It was a very cool place with tens, maybe even hundreds of types of fish, amphibians, snails and shrimp, and plants! They had freshwater and saltwater fish and plants in all types of sizes and shapes. I would rate it 5 stars!⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Pot Roast with Carrots and Potatoes
Tip: Don’t add cornstarch directly to the hot broth. Mixing it with cold water first keeps the gravy smooth instead of clumpy.

Pillow Cover
I love a neutral pillow, but I still want a little contrast. These have the perfect mix - the warm cream keeps them soft and simple, while the thin black stripes add just enough definition to keep everything from blending together.

Pillow Cover
I don't know why these pillow covers are marked as "frequently returned" on Amazon. I love them!!! They add so much texture and contrast to the space without making it feel busy. The soft, chenille fabric is cozy, too. I've been really happy with mine and have had them for over a year now.

Outdoor Side Table
I bought this table for my front porch because I specifically didn't want a matching black table with my black rocking chairs. I wanted something that would add a little contrast and make the space feel more collected rather than like a matching set, and this was perfect.

Rocking chairs
The one thing I'd tell a friend… is that the chairs feel cheaper than a solid HDPE material, but they’re still sturdy, have held up well in the sun and rain, and are a great option at a much more affordable price than bigger brand-name options. They were also fairly simple to put together.

Lemongrass Sushi and Thai
They have consistently made fresh, tasty sushi every time we’ve visited. The environment is comfortable and the waitress is always cheery and helpful. Also, you cannot beat the Mango Tango sushi! Yum!!😋

Fourth of July Porch
What I love most about this front porch, is it’s a classy version of the 4th of July. It’s not too cutesy - just Americana at its best.

Storage Cabinet
This is a Nathan James storage cabinet. I got it as a cabinet to put next to my door to sit a lamp on and store things. I love the glass front and brass knob and it's very versatile. You can use just one or put more than one together to create a console.
