Okay, the countdown is officially on. Our kids have only three weeks left of summer break, and I’m already so bummed that it’s almost over! It’s been one of our best summers yet. We’ve fit in plenty of fun, but Typhoon Texas, Splash Shack, and Inner Space Cavern are still on our list!
Some of my favorite days, though, have been the quiet ones at home. Noelle and Charlie have turned our living room into Disneyland, a pirate ship, a library, restaurants, a nail salon and one very elaborate veterinary office. I love watching them create whole worlds together.
These weeks always seem to pass faster than I expect. We’ll keep squeezing in as much as we can, and this week’s events issue should help you make a solid August plan for your own family too.
Is there anything else we should be sure to fit in before summer ends? Hit reply and let me know!
🤝 Skincare Made Slow, By Hand in WilCo
Most bath products are mass produced in bulk and packed with ingredients you can't pronounce. This one is different.
Enchanted Gardens Soapery makes bath and body products the old fashioned way: by hand, in small batches, with ingredients you can actually pronounce.
What you'll find:
🫧 Bar soaps, body butters, sugar scrubs, and bath bombs
🌴 Organic shea butter, coconut milk, and raw silk
✨ No parabens, phthalates, or synthetics
❤️ Fair trade ingredients that support women in Ghana
Every product is tested before it reaches you. Whether it's for you or a gift, this is skincare worth slowing down for.
It's a small, thoughtful upgrade that makes an ordinary routine feel a little more special.

If you’re new here, this issue is a little different from our usual Scoop. Most of the time, we share a mix of local favorites like restaurant features, business spotlights, community news, and other things happening around town. But once a month, we send out a special events-only issue to give you a preview of what’s coming up so you can plan ahead. So grab your calendar and get ready for all the fun August has in store!
