How was your Father’s Day weekend? I hope it was some good together time. We enjoyed the family time and slower pace. Always a tender day for those of us who have lost our dads but a beautiful day to remember them. I always love starting Monday off with you and a peek at life lately.
ABOUT TO BURST
Our limelight hydrangeas are twice the size they were last year. So happy to see them thriving. And so many blooms ready to burst forth. These are my babies and I am thrilled to see them doing so well. We did fertilize them this year which made a big difference.
PEONY SEASON
If you have a Trader Joe’s they are filled with Peonies right now. And I just saw that you can buy a cute little kit of brown paper to tie up a bouquet. Genius if you are stopping in to buy flowers on the way to something special. I think the kit was $2.
BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION
We celebrated one of our dear friends this past Friday night and it was one of those dinners that lingers and ends up on the back porch with the best conversation and laughter. My cheeks literally hurt after the laughing. Four hours of goodness chatting with dear friends. We are very fortunate to have a group of five couples that get along so well. Even the husbands. Life can get so busy and we are pulled in so many directions, but it’s so important to make time for those friendships.
HERBAN MARKET
Herban Market just expanded and now has a Pantry portion that you can pop into and take healthy food options to go. This family run restaurant is wonderful. Everything is farm to table and no seed oils.
A GO-TO
The Chicken Tinga tacos are gluten and diary free and so delicious. There cobb salad is also amazing.
RAVE REVIEWS
I love when I hear from you about things you bought and really like. She is spot on about these sneakers. I literally just wore them with a long black dress and they looked great. . .but so cute with jeans and shorts. Because they work with everything, they are ideal for travel. I have them in pink, too. And you can’t beat the price ($23).
FATHER’S DAY WEEKEND
Ryan wanted to do an Escape Game the morning of Father’s Day and it was so much fun! I LOVE doing these with the teens because it’s awesome to watch them work together. It’s safe to say they carried us this time. We had a blast and headed to brunch after.
NEW LOCATION
If you are a fan of Stay Golden (sooooo good) they moved! We were so surprised they aren’t in Berry Hill any more. But a great new location in Nashville and always so delicious.
We are off and running this morning. My to-do list feels a bit intimidating but trying to take it one step at a time. Here’s to a productive Monday, my friend.
