We spent the day at @carrigan_farms in North Carolina, picking beautiful flowers, cooling off with a swim in the quarry, enjoying fresh seasonal fruit, and making sweet family memories. 💦🍉 😎

Summer at Carrigan Farms is a ton of fun for the whole family! 🤗

👟 Wear water shoes or sandals with good grip for the quarry.
🩱 Arrive in your swimsuit or wear it under your clothes to save time.
🍑 Don’t leave without trying the fresh seasonal produce and picking flowers if they’re in season!

There’s something incredibly special about growing There’s something incredibly special about growing up with Toy Story and then getting to watch your own children fall in love with these characters too. 🩵☁️✨

Toy Story 5 Toy captures everything we love about the franchise while bringing a fresh story for a new generation. Seeing more of Jessie’s story was so special! ❤️🤠🐴

What I loved most was the reminder that childhood is found in the simple moments of play. Watching kids rediscover imagination, adventure, and connection in a world full of screens felt especially meaningful.

This movie celebrates friendship, adventure, and the magic that happens when kids PLAY! ✨❤️

Thanks to Disney & Pixar for inviting us to a special screening last night! 🍿🎥 Go see @toystory 5 in theaters June 19th! #ToyStory #ToyStory5 #Pixar #DisneyMagic #disneyfamily
I Knew It, I Knew You 🫶🩵 Seeing our favorite toys I Knew It, I Knew You 🫶🩵

These characters, little giggles, little smiles… bring back the best memories! 

Because some stories don’t end… they just grow up with us. 💫💙 To infinity and beyond. 💙💫

The @breadwinnermovie starring @natebargatze and @ The @breadwinnermovie starring @natebargatze and @mandymooremm is a relatable and hilarious family comedy parents will definitely connect with. 🎬❤️

📺 Check out my interview with Nate & Mandy as we chat all about the film, family life, and balancing it all behind the scenes! 👏

The humor is family-friendly and the film has a very nostalgic feel of classic family comedies while still feeling current and relatable for today’s parents! See it in theaters this weekend! @sonypictures

POV: the perfect girls day does exist ✨🕯️💎 Spent POV: the perfect girls day does exist ✨🕯️💎

Spent the day at @districtcandlelab creating our own custom candle and building the cutest charm bracelet at the charm bar with @wearfawne and honestly, it was such a fun experience from start to finish. From choosing scents to picking charms that matched our vibe, every detail felt creative, cozy, and so intentional. 😍✨

If you’re looking for a unique date idea, girls outing, or just a little self-care moment, this is your sign! 💖 My daughter and I had a lovely afternoon together! 🥰

✨ Pro tip: Make a reservation for the candle bar because it fills up fast, especially on weekends!
✨ The charm jewelry bar is walk-in only.
✨ They also offer private event bookings for groups of 10+ which would be SO fun for birthdays, bridal events, or team outings. 

10/10 experience for making memories and leaving with something custom you actually love!! 💕
