Flowers from the garden + Dempsey’s poem about s Flowers from the garden + Dempsey’s poem about summer (which he had to write to check off a bingo square last week!) 

The sun is bright
The days are hot 
I play with friends
And one’s named Scott.
We go on trips
I play with friends 
We go to the beach
I hope summer never ends.
By Dempsey 

Fun fact: Demps doesn’t have any friends named Scott 🤣

The life cycle of this wine bottle — made easy b The life cycle of this wine bottle — made easy because of @levurebottleshop’s awesome new online ordering and curbside pickup! 

1. Found the bottle on levurebottleshop.com and placed my order, selecting curbside pickup 
2. Showed up to Levure to have my order brought to my car 
3. Made it home!
4. Set her in the fridge to chill for a few hours.
5. Got her out for game night!
6. Poured a round or two…
7. Fell in love with the cuteness of the bottle so she became a vase!
8. Currently— cute vase full of flowers on my kitchen counter 🩷🐄🥂

@masa_mesa_jxn was DELISH - I can’t wait to go back and try more! I had La Vida Fresca to drink, and two tacos (tri me & coop deville) to eat. My lunch buddies also gave very high marks to the pimento cheese and the Karen! 

And these @target shorts are a super comfy knit crochet in the prettiest color! They pair great with my fave @shophighlandpark top & my grandmother’s silk scarf! 🧡 Comment LINK if you want more info on the shorts sent to your DMs 🥰

THIS SATURDAY, July 11th, @cspire is hosting a Bac THIS SATURDAY, July 11th, @cspire is hosting a Back to School Family Event at @renaissanceatcolonypark where you can stop by and learn all about their Connect and Protect program, which was created for parents to keep their kids safe when it comes time to enter the device world! Although I am personally trying to keep our kids’ entry into this world as slow as possible, I’ve already been so thankful for c-spire’s parental control options for when my kids inevitably *do* get their own devices. They were so helpful in getting our family iPad (which is essentially our home phone) set up / locked down! 

The event this weekend will be held in the space right next to @shophighlandpark on that beautiful little alley way! (Look for the window in the background of my photos!)

Here’s what you can expect at the event:
✨ complimentary ice cream & loaded teas
📱 device deals and help with parental setup
💛 screen free activities for your kids, like coloring, yard games, and t-shirt tye dying (so fun!) 

Even if you’re just thinking about getting your child their first device, like a watch or a phone or a tablet, you’ll want to stop by this event and get all your questions answered! It’ll be a fun, chill environment for everyone in your family, and a great way to learn all about what my friends at @cspire have to offer your family! ☀️
