Good morning! I hope everyone enjoyed their three day weekend. I am tired but had a great time, so I am just going to share a few photos from my weekend. I would really love for you to go check out yesterdays post on leaking what you love though, so be sure to check it out!

BBQ Sunday

Lots and lots of yard work Monday

Then Bobby and I had dinner with my cousin, Jaimie and her husband Matt last night

A great weekend!

    Memorial Day is usually the start of nice weather “up North”! And what a great weekend for us. As always, we went to the Memorial Day parade in our town, then drove over to the city where I grew up (about 10 minutes away) and placed flags on the graves of our family veterans and said a few prayers. My son’s birthday falls on this weekend so we always have a joint birthday/Memorial day family party – this year was no exception. The solar cover heated the pool water up enough so everyone could swim (definitely NOT always the case!) The past 3 weeks have been incredibly busy as a family – my husband is taking a few night classes at a local university to finish a couple of grad courses up, kids had AP exams, SATS, ACTs (coming up), end of year assignments, basketball tournaments, lacrossse games, track invitationals, etc – so while we “should” have done yard work, we kind of just collapsed around the pool and enjoyed family time. Best weekend in a long time!!

    We did a little car test driving, as I am looking for a new car. Then my mom and I participated in our first 5k yesterday! I’m a new runner, so this was my first race!

    It looks like you had a great 3 day weekend! We took Wyatt on his first boat ride and he didn’t scream. He actually passed out. Success!

    I actually took time and really cleaned my kitchen. My roommates and I have been neglecting it for a while, so it was finally time to get it done. And I must say, it looks GREAT now 🙂

    Ran a 10k…in brutal heat!! I’m glad that race is over! Hard to believe it’s already SO humid and in upper 80s in Southern VA in late May. I’m already dreading my summer training runs. Other than that, normal Memorial Day activities – pool, bbq, etc.
    BTW, your yard looks fabulous – nice work! 🙂

    I love your yard! But I think I love that black dress more! 🙂

    I ran my 1st 10k race Monday-virtual run. I ALMOST died! It was so hot here in Alabama-even at 6pm. Now I’m looking for a “real” 10k to sign up for at the end of this month or July.

I really thought he was SO cool when we first met I really thought he was SO cool when we first met in college. 
I mean, he drove a red corvette and was two years older than me. 💁🏻‍♀️

Turns out he’s just been confidently weird this whole time and hiding it really well. 🤣

Anyone else married to a professional goofball? 🤦🏻‍♀️

If you’re planning a trip to Florida’s Forgotten C If you’re planning a trip to Florida’s Forgotten Coast, save this one. 🌊 #RentingTheCoastPartner

We stayed at Singing Waves in Cape San Blas, and it was everything we wanted in a beach getaway: beautiful views, plenty of space, and the kind of place that makes you slow down and actually enjoy vacation.

What really stood out, though, was Renting the Coast. They’re a locally owned, family run company that manages vacation homes throughout Cape San Blas, Port St. Joe, Mexico Beach, and the surrounding Forgotten Coast communities. 

Instead of managing hundreds of properties, they intentionally keep their inventory smaller so they can provide a more personal experience for both guests and homeowners. They’re known for being accessible, responsive, and focused on making sure every stay goes smoothly.

If Cape San Blas has been on your travel list, Singing Waves is absolutely worth checking out, and so is Renting the Coast’s collection of homes along Florida’s most underrated stretch of coastline. ☀️

Ready to start planning your own Forgotten Coast getaway? Click the link in my bio to explore available homes and find the perfect spot for your next beach vacation.

Have you ever visited Cape San Blas?

Please tell me I’m not the only one who’s been personally victimized by the passage of time and a perky Gen Z girlie. 😂

#ad #BraunPartner Less time shaving. More time liv #ad #BraunPartner Less time shaving. More time living thanks to @BraunBeautyUS Smart IPL. ✨ 

I didn’t realize how much mental space hair removal was taking up until it just… wasn’t anymore. Between games, trips, and everything in between, having something I can do at home in minutes has been a total game changer. The app-guided treatments keep me consistent without having to think about it, and I’m already noticing smoother skin that actually lasts. And yes — the full-body, 10-minute-at-home situation still feels a little unreal. 

If you’ve been on the fence, Prime Day (June 14–27) is definitely the moment to check it out with $120 off. #BraunSmartIPL
