I feel like I’ve waited all of my life for this giveaway! I was born in Huntsville, Alabama, the Rocket City. As a matter of fact, two of my grandfathers actually built rockets back in the days of Wernher von Braun!  My mother was born here, her mother before her, and her mother before her. Obviously, I love my hometown, but I could spend all week telling you the reasons why! Huntsville, Alabama is a wonderfully family friendly place with tons of exciting things to do, some are even out of this world! From the US Space & Rocket Center, Space Camp, discovery at Earlyworks Museum, time travel at Constitution Village, the beauty of our parks and Huntsville Botanical Gardens, historical Burritt Museum, and don’t even get me started on the food (psst, smoked chicken at New Market BBQ and Peach Cobbler at the Blue Plate Cafe!).

You can learn all about the exciting things to do in the Rocket City by visiting Huntsville.org.

 I’m so excited to have a chance to share my wonderful hometown with each of you by offering the ULTIMATE VIP EXPERIENCE!
