Actually being outside and touching grass
Places and activities we enjoy outdoors as a family or just as mom and dad time.
I grew up going here with family and friends, and it's amazing to see how much it's expanded and taken on. Great for outdoor birthday parties, events in the center like baby showers or graduations, areas for playing tennis and basketball, and a splas...
Rogers Park
The farmer's market holds a special place in my heart! Here you'll meet some of the most passionate people dedicated to the work and love they put into what they deliver to south east Texas. From freshly canned jams, sauces, home grown honey, and sal...
Beaumont Farmers Market
It's a great spot to bring your 4X4, golf cart, or boat, and I promise the water isn't as bad as it looks. There are plenty of fishing spots, too. Even some that don't require a license. Have a nice picnic on the beach with some people you love, and ...
Crystal Beach
If you don't want to deal with the water at Galveston, you'd love the beautiful blue in South Padre! It's like a whole 'nother world compared to Crystal. The whole island is gorgeous, and has some of the best coffee spots I've ever visited. And ther...
South Padre Island
Even when this river is kinda packed, it's still a vibe I can get behind. It's big enough that the flow slowing down a little or booping another tuber every now and then doesn't ruin your experience. The views are gorgeous, and the water is so relaxi...
San Marcos River | Tubing, Kayaking, Fishing & Snorkeling
This farm left us speechless with all of the things they had available to do for so many age ranges! They have rides, a petting zoo, bounce zones, swings, playgrounds, a train ride, and I know I'm missing something else, because we couldn't even get ...
Dewberry Farm
Expanding our back one place at a time
This place is an absolute GEM. My mother in love recommended them to me and my husband, and we've been hooked ever since our first visit. They've got the black eyed peas, the greens, the yams, the oxtails, the smothered chicken and pork chops, the ha...
Richards Cafe - Soulful Southern Cuisine in Beaumont, TX
My husband told me about this place, surprised me with a date night here, and we came back a day later. The margaritas are tasty, and they really sneak up on you. Their fries are well seasoned, and perfectly crispy. They have banana pudding *and* str...
STUFF'd Wings | boudin wings in houston
The name of this place really speaks for itself: everything served here is going to stick to your bones. They have a couple of locations and a food truck, and I believe the menu is *slightly* different depending on where you visit. But the food is so...
The Greasy Spoon
My husband can't shut up about their fried rice, and I can't shut up about their pho! Between their summer rolls, banh mi, hot mess fries, marinated meats, dumplings - it gets hard to make a decision here. The atmosphere is calm and peaceful for dini...
SWEET BASIL VIETNAMESE NOODLE HOUSE
Coffee, and boba tea, and others, oh my!
If you've never had moon milk, you should absolutely give it a try! It's even available for purchase by the bottle, as well as their cold brew concentrate. We've had quite a few bottles of the moon milk with our own coffee at home. I do still get con...
Summer Moon Coffee (Nassau Bay, TX)
Girrrrrl (or booooooyyyy), I LOVE me some milk tea and boba, and this place has *options* galore between both! They have some snacks and food items available, and I haven't tried them yet (unfortunately), but they smell and look so good, and I hear g...
Cha Cha Cafe
A tea cafe that has a good amount of options for boba and tea is more than good enough for me. My go to is a specialty milk tea with brown sugar boba, and my husband likes to mix it up with some kind of mango or strawberry mix fruit tea combo (which ...
Tea City
I love when a coffee spot has coffee that tastes like *actual* coffee. They add flavor to it without it overpowering the entire beverage, and their coffee was SO smooth. Their espresso was really good, too. The staff was so kind and personable, actua...
Beans & Brews Coffee House
One of our favorite coffee spots to visit! Some of the most delicious coffee and matcha my husband and I have ever tasted, and literally the sweetest, most invested staff in their craft. They patiently answer any questions you have and give great rec...
