It’s hard to believe that we are in the month of April and that summer is coming soon! Our baby girl Turner will be making her arrival in about a month and we can’t wait to meet her! We made a trip to Lynchburg, VA in August 2021 which is where I grew up and spent 10 years of my life and also where my husband and I met as well. We experienced a miscarriage shortly after this trip so I had a difficult time wanting to share this post, but would love to share our guide with you now! We both attended Liberty University in Lynchburg and met there. We revisited several places from my childhood and from college, but also tried out some new restaurants while we were there. We also tried to make our hotel reservations budget friendly but also explored some of the nicer places to stay there as well.
