This Year on Father's Day

This year on father's day Brandon and I made the three hour drive to San Antonio to spend the weekend with my parents. My sister and brother-in-law even drove in from Abilene. There's just something about family. They just feel like home. Sure do love them! After church we took Dad out to BJ's Brewhouse in San Antonio and then came back to the house for a little r&r. Dad got to spend some quality time with his grandkids. We even fit in a little pool time splashing on the bucking walrus.   

faster poppy!

Lincoln and Addison sure do love their Poppy. 

I can't wait to see my babies in the arms of their Poppy. Thanks for being one hell-of-a Dad. I love you, Daddy!

UP by Jawbone

UP by Jawbone is the coolest little invention since (well, I'm just gonna say it) sliced bread. Seriously, I'm obsessed with this band. I haven't taken it off since I put it on, and I'm loving it. So, I've been living it UP for three weeks now (see what I did there!). ;) 

The UP band tracks how your sleep, move, eat, and feel then helps you use that information to feel your best!

Their motto Know Yourself. Live Better. truly is the definition of this band. When you know how much sleep you're getting you can see the correlation of how you perform the next day. It really helps you understand your daily routine. Better and more rested sleep gives you the energy you need to tackle the day ahead.

I love being able to see how well (or crappy) I slept the night before and know if I'm getting enough sleep. Clearly from the picture above I did not get enough. Ha!

*This was not a sponsored post. I just really love this band, and I'm on a mission to get everyone I know hooked and get one for themselves! :)   

Persun Summer Love Links

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7

Happy Friday! Can you believe another week has come and gone? It's been a rather quick week for our little family, and we're actually heading out the door again to drive to San Antonio for the weekend. But, before I go I wanted to tell you all about Persun. Have you guys heard of them?

I just came across their site a couple of weeks ago, and I've been scouring their pages of inventory of gorgeous dresses, jewelry and handbags ever since. I can't get over this lace dress (above). It's absolutely perfect for a summer wedding. And this mint top for a family backyard bar-b-que (fourth of July party?). With a few new outfits I'll be set to host any party this summer! Just don't put me in charge of planning, babysitting, cooking, baking or taking out the trash.

Gigi's Cupcakes - Cypress, TX

Cupcakes and coffee. Is there a better combination? I think not. 

Gigi's Cupcakes in Cypress, Texas delivers on presentation and delicious flavor! Every day they have a new menu of cupcakes available. Pictured above are Merry Margarita and Dulche de Leche. The first one I tried was the Wedding Cake, and ohemgee was it amazeballs awesome! Seriously, it was a little piece of heaven in my mouth. If you're ever in the Houston area, be sure to stop by Gigi's Cupcakes in Cypress and grab one, two or twenty cupcakes. ;)

Happy Tuesday, friends!
