Taste of Trussville
Trussville hosts so many wonderful events, and one of my favorites continues to be Taste of Trussville. An annual event that kicks off Trussville Restaurant Week, it is the place to be for foodies like me! It has samples galore, and every year I find a dish that I wouldn’t have thought to try otherwise.

Community Life
Trussville is full of sentimental places for me. I brought my babies home from the hospital here. I’ve chased both of my kids, separately and together, at the playground. Watched my daughter learn to swim at the Trussville pool. Started a business here. Dropped off kids in carlines. Worshipped here. Forged friendships here. Watched sunsets from our back porch. Our whole life is here in our sweet community.
La Calle Tacos and Snacks
I’m a foodie by heart, so I love going to all of the spots around town, so choosing is difficult. If I had to choose a favorite dish, it’d be the Chicken Street Tacos from La Calle Tacos and Snacks near Walmart. They have the best Taco Tuesday deals!
Maple Avenue Coffee House
You can usually find me at Maple Avenue Coffee House several times a week. It’s such a peaceful atmosphere when I’m in work mode, but it is also a great place to meet my girlfriends for a quick morning catch-up! As an added bonus, I’ve made new friends while hanging out there too.
Miss Kelley’s School of Dance
My daughter started dancing with Miss Kelley’s School of Dance when she was just four years old, taking only one class a week. She was the most precious, uncoordinated age, but she shined so bright on stage! MKSD has poured into her over the years, and it’s such a joy to watch her blossom as a dancer.
