11 years of celebrating our anniversary at the pla 11 years of celebrating our anniversary at the place where it all began 🤍

Every year feels a little more nostalgic as we get to tell our growing boys about the day we got married. We start at the sign for our annual photo, then head inside for champagne (kiddie cocktails for the boys, of course 🥂), before walking out to the courtyard to relive the ceremony.

The boys love watching the river, and every year I’m reminded all over again what a perfect venue we chose—not just for our wedding, but for this tradition we’ve created as a family.

Feeling extra grateful for the life we’ve built and so blessed that our boys get to be part of these memories with us. Here’s to continuing this little tradition for many, many years to come. 🤍
Egg Bites Series Part TWO ✨ I ordered these @3pig Egg Bites Series Part TWO ✨

I ordered these @3pigspate egg bites from @misfitsmarket and we were so impressed! 

The texture was delightful and the bacon flavor was definitely the star. While I wish it had more bacon, I thought the overall bite was top notch . 👌🏼

We still have many to work through but this one quickly rose to the number 1 spot! 🥇

I just tried a grocery subscription from @misfitsmarket and…okay, I get the hype!

Fresh produce, pre-cut fruit (IYKYK 🍉), canned goods, meat, seafood, and a bunch of random/unique finds all delivered straight to my door.

It was way easier and more reasonably priced than I expected.

Have you tried @misfitsmarket? Tell me what I NEED to add to my next order 👇

✨New mini series: EGG BITES 🥚🥓🧀 Back-to-school mo ✨New mini series: EGG BITES 🥚🥓🧀

Back-to-school mornings are officially upon us, and I’ll take all the help I can get when it comes to getting a healthy breakfast on the table FAST.

So for the next two weeks, I’m tasting ALL the egg bites. 👀 Keeping it consistent with bacon + cheese so we can actually compare them apples to apples.

Have a brand you’ve been curious about? Drop it in the comments and I’ll take one for the team. 😂

Let the egg bite rankings begin…⏲️
