Happy Father's Day!

It's good to be back on the blog this week!  I missed blogging, but really enjoyed our time at the ocean.

We had a sweet Father's Day yesterday!  We rested after a long travel day home from Destin on Saturday and then took it easy on Sunday.  The kids and I worked together to make Kevin a delicious brunch at home.  It was so nice to not have to go out and fight crowds to pay for an expensive breakfast.  We had all of our favorites at home and that was a bargain.

Happy Father's Day to our favorite guy!!  Kevin takes care of everyone and is a good listener.  He always has a book and a coffee in his hands, he loves learning new things like gardening, is always the fun one in our family and is the best trip planner.  Look at our 2023 garden (and kids!!!) grow!

Leo and I worked together to make Kevin's favorite dessert - brownies!  Leo



The big kids helped me make brunch - sticky buns, scrambled eggs and little smokies.  They were really proud of the meal they made.



Our garden is doing so well!  It's so exciting to keep tabs on all the produce each day.


We're going to have tacos this week with all the veggies from our garden.  And maybe some zucchini bread for dessert.  The kids were so excited about our garden haul!

We went to my parent's lake house for dinner to celebrate with my side of the family.  The kids had fun with their cousins, did some impressive magnet fishing in the lake and we had a yummy taco bar.  Leo was so excited to see the deer come up for her dinner.




Best Dad Ever.  It's hard to find someone that is always happy to help you.  This guy has been happily helping me for 40+ years.  I'm so lucky!  

We got to celebrate our favorite guy in his favorite spot - Christmas Lake!


I hope you had a great weekend!  It's good to be back in our routines.  I've got some fun blog posts coming up about our trip to Destin and some easy lunch ideas for kids this Summer.

    1. Thanks, Amy! I browned them on the stove top and sprinkled a little brown sugar on them. They were delicious.
