father's day gifts

Cracker Barrel sent me some products to try to help us celebrate Father's Day.  Landon was excited to help me wrap up some presents for daddy. On Sunday morning, Mike will have a new favorite album, shirt and cap. I was really tempted to keep the cap for myself because it's so soft and feels just worn in enough to be super comfortable. 

Mike has always been a Lynyrd Skynyrd fan, so I know the album will be a winner. I love the bit of nostalgia that comes from playing albums and that raw sound you can't get from music downloads. Records and hot summer days just seem to go together.

If you still need some Father's Day gifts, stop by Cracker Barrel to see what they have for the dads on your list. There's plenty to choose from or you can grab a gift card and let dad pick his own gifts. You can also shop online here. There's even a dad-approved gift guide to help you choose. 

Happy Father's Day!

Three Jerks Jerky | and a giveaway!

The great guys over at Three Jerks Jerky sent us some beef jerky to try out. Mike LOVES beef jerky, so I knew he'd be excited to try out jerky  made from filet mignon. You guys, it is so good! Mike likes the original best, but I preferred the Memphis BBQ flavor. It has a smokey, delicious flavor that is just hot enough without being too hot. If you love beef jerky, you really need to try Three Jerks Jerky! 

 

Father's Day is coming up! Want to win a 3-pack of Three Jerks Jerky for Dad? Leave a comment on this post by this Friday, June 5th. Winner will be chosen and announced on our Facebook page on Saturday, June 6th. 

 
Good luck!
 

Father's Day Recap

We had the most amazing day yesterday. It honestly could not have been any better if it had been scripted. I woke up around 6am, got up quietly, did my hair and makeup and made coffee. I watched the sun coming up as I drank my coffee and enjoyed an hour of peace and solitude...pure bliss I'm telling ya. The simple things... I even had a few minutes to spend trying to beat level 30 on Candy Crush {yep, I finally caved, but that's another story}.

Landon woke up around 7:30, ready to fix breakfast for his daddy. We spread out a blanket and enjoyed a breakfast picnic on the family room floor ~ cinnamon rolls, sausage and orange juice. It was so much fun. Landon was so excited to give daddy his gift ~ a new Alvin and the Chipmunks movie. He's just so precious.

 
Later in the day, we headed to my mom's house for a family cookout. Mike's parents and sister were there too. We spent the day on the patio and Landon spent the day in the pool. Mike and his brother grilled steaks and they were AMAZING! We grill steaks a lot, so I'm not sure what made these different, but they were just that good. We did switch from our usual barbecue sauce and used Cattleman's Kansas City. So good ~ it caramelized nicely on the steaks. We ended the day with ice cream cake and banana pudding. We got home around 8pm and Landon was sound asleep by 8:15. 

I love this picture I got of Landon and Mike. Don't you love the matching shirts? It's a family set - mine has a heart instead of the tie. I ordered them from Chic Couture Boutique on etsy. Mike just shakes his head... *wink
