July is carnival season! Carnival like Caribbean style but also carnival like fairs. If you missed it, my Maryland carnival/fairs schedule guide is here.

I cannot wait for Carnival this weekend as it’s my favorite parade with soca music, beautiful customs and day party atmosphere…it’s my type of party. Will you be there? It’s in Baltimore at Druid Hill Park starting at noon.

Sandy Spring Adventure Park Tree Top Adventures has 3 night climbs this month with Keep it Lit (18+) and Glow in the Park (ages 6+). Try something new this month as I know you will have a great time. See my latest adventure here.

Below are the remaining weeks of July to do lists…would love to hear what you are most excited about doing in July! You can

If you have been following me for any length of time you know I am not a makeup girlie but after seeing my face daily on social media and growing older, I realized I needed to do something to level up my appearance. I was nervous that it would hurt but the numbing cream really works! Now my face looks made up first thing in the morning without me having to do anything else. If I want to add some eye shadow or lipstick, my face is done!

When I asked everyone who to go to, Jamaya seemed to be everyone’s top pick, so she is well known in the Baltimore area and I understand why now. She’s so sweet and professional too! I really enjoyed my visit with her and she does amazing work as she cares about her clients and craft.

She’s giving my audience 10% off through Aug 31 on any service she has with code: Summer10
