A Kentucky Adventure

My aunt and uncle live in Kentucky while the rest of my family are in Michigan. We don’t get to see them as often, especially with me going to college in Mississippi. This summer we took a visit to Kentucky! We went to the mall and there’s a tattoo shop that also does piercings there! Everyone got a piercing, j got my second hole. Then we got birria tacos from the restaurant next door, it was pretty good. There were soooo many decorated horses 😂 they were so cute and creative! The trip was definitely a good one due to the people not necessarily the location. There isn’t much to do there, but hopefully next time we’ll find a hidden gem.
