Father’s Day 2024

It was so fun to celebrate Father’s Day in the Outer Banks this year because I was able to spend the day with Jimmy and my dad!

We started our day off at Son Rise Church of Christ in Kill Devil Hills for morning worship and heard a great sermon on Philippians 2 about Christian unity.

After church, we hung out by the pool for most of the day and it was the perfect way to spend a summer afternoon! Mordecai got a little more brave with the pool–yay!

I used Mordecai’s nap time in the afternoon to do some recipe testing. I’m considering making red, white, and blue challah for my July bakery menu!

In the evening, we grilled chicken, steak, and fish for dinner and then the boys went to the Oregon Inlet and drove Jimmy’s truck onto the beach and went fishing. They didn’t catch any fish but saw a fox?! They said the water was warm and the beach there was really peaceful.

It was a memorable and special day with the men in my life 🖤

A Sentence Per Picture

I’m back with another sentence per picture post! These posts are heavy on pictures and light on words. They get my creativity going because writing one sentence to describe each picture means I can’t be too wordy 😉

Okay, here are a few pictures from my life lately with a sentence to discuss each one. Also, let me know in the comments what snapshots of your life the past couple of weeks would look like!
