🌱 Mtn. Brook Player In North-South HS Football Game + Dinosaur Month

Hey, friends! It's Thursday in Mountain Brook and I'm back in your inbox to get you caught up on the most important things happening in our community today. Today you'll find these stories and more...

• 🐐 Goat yoga and more exciting events this month!
• 🏈 Mountain Brook's Trent Wright will play in the Alabama All-Star North-South high school football game.

But before all that, here's something special to check out today — especially for those of us wanting to look good, stay fit and eat right heading into the holiday season. We asked Laura Silsbee, a Mountain Brook native and wellness expert, to help us find the best beauty deals, fitness classes, farmers markets and more — happening in and around Birmingham in November. She has some amazing finds — including lash lifts, free pilates and pre-made Thanksgiving meals and sides. Check out her Birmingham Patch Wellness Guide for November here.
