100 Things To Do In Lexington Kentucky During December

December 7, 2017

Just because it is winter and cold outside, doesn’t mean the fun has to stop! In fact, there are tons and tons of activities to do in Lexington, Kentucky during the winter; both indoors and outdoors, especially for the holidays.

December 5, 2017

Today there is a reason to celebrate! Today is Repeal Day! Three weeks after taking office, Franklin Roosevelt signed an amendment rescinding the Volstead Act on December 5, 1933, which put an end to Prohibition.

Wreath Making Workshop at The Barn at Springhouse

November 20, 2017

It’s that time of year again, and I don’t know about you, but I’ve been in the holiday spirit ever since November 1! Our TV has been on the Hallmark channel 24/7, except for the time where we watch our weekly shows; This Is Us and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. My DVR is smashed full at 14%, because I’ve DVR’d a gazillion Christmas movies, so I could be sure I would be able to watch my favorites over and over throughout the holiday season. We just bought a house back in April of this year, so we knew we wanted to go…
