Accidental Beach Party, River Adventures, and a Food Truck Feast

September 8, 2017 By Kari Leave a Comment

Local Love List 20-1

Accidental Beach Shirts: Vivid Print has restocked it’s official Accidental Beach tanks for women and men. They’re selling like hot cakes so get into their Whyte Ave shop (10342 82 Ave) and get yours. Meantime, 630 CHED is hosting The Endless Summer Accidental Beach Party today (Friday, September 8) from 12:30-3pm. The first 50 partiers score a piece of Northern Chicken. More on Accidental Beach – here.

Local Love List 20-2

Shop the Skinny: The local boutique has officially moved into its new (permanent) home at Southgate Centre! Wyatt and I did a little shopping there yesterday. It’s big, bright and beautiful. Gorgeously designed and entirely Instagrammable. Pop by the grand opening celebration on now until September 10th for a ton of really cool gifts and giveaways. 

Local Love List 20-3

Beaumont Night Market: This really cool event is on tomorrow from 4-11pm (kids are welcome until 7:30), hosted by Empowering Women Entrepreneurs. Expect wine, food, live music and over 70 vendors selling their goods. I’m happy to be judging the ‘Best Dressed Vintage Chic Contest’, so come dolled up. The prize is a $600 GC to Angie’s Home Accents. See you there!

Food Truck Feast: The last What the Truck?! event of the season goes tomorrow. If you’ve never been, it’s basically all of Edmonton’s best food trucks in one spot. Hello! 🙂 This time on Capital Boulevard (99th street and 108 ave) from 12-7pm.

Rose Gold Box: When I was designing my dream closet with California Closets, I struggled to find rose gold coloured storage boxes in my price range. I ended up just making my own! Check out my DIY: Simple Rose Gold Storage Box.

Local Love List 20-4

River Adventures: Our river valley is sure getting a lot of love lately and I love it. You can celebrate the North Saskatchewan at EPCOR’s RiverFest September 15-17. A bunch of activities and events on all weekend long. All the details here. 

Ernest’s Dining Room Open: The restaurant at NAIT, with dishes prepared and served by NAIT Culinary students, officially opens for the season today! I adore this whole concept and we’ve always had a great dining experience here. Go check it out!

Vignettes Edmonton: The month-long festival, which celebrates creative collaborations between the art, design and the culinary scene, kicks off tomorrow! Bookmark their Instagram and website to stay up-to-date on pop-ups and tickets throughout the month.

First time going to Disney? We got so much great a First time going to Disney? We got so much great advice and awesome tips for how to maximize our first time at the park as a family.

➡️ The number one thing I want to pass along is to allow breathing room in your days there. Don't overplan it. Try not to be SO scheduled that you miss the magic. ✨️

Of course you want to have a general plan of the rides you want to hit, your strategy for tackling the pack, etc. but leave space so when suddenly Goofy is walking down the street and your kiddo wants a photo - you have time. 

➡️ Book your hotel and park passes ahead of time for sure. Reserve a character dinner too (we booked ours the day before and got the last spot). 

There are a lot of to-the-minute schedules you'll find out there for how to hit every ride and try all the food in record time but for a family with young kids, I don't recommend it. Just go with the flow and have fun! 🤗

➡️ Make sure to head a few reels back and see how we surprised our seven-year-old with the trip! Ask any questions below. ❤️ Like and save this post if it was helpful for you.

More Disney tips coming to my Reels feed and KariSkelton.com this week!
