The Fan-TACHE-tic Dad

some super cute ideas for dad for Father's Day - love the mustache dad pancakes!

My dad had a mustache for a season when I was a little girl.

He is a handsome man, but I remember thinking all that extra hair was kind of prickly. 🙂

I wonder how many of you have men in your life that are sportin’ a ‘stache?

If so, these ideas will make his Father’s Day a fan-TACHE-tic one!

First up, I am loving these Dad’s ‘Stache’ Jars with FREE Printable tags from Sandy Toes and Popsicles.

Fill the jars with Dad’s (or Grandpa’s) favorite candy and he will have a secret little place to keep his treats!

Dads usually have to carry around quite a bit with them – like wallets, phones, keys, watches, etc.

I love this super simple Father’s Day craft from Modern Parents Messy Kids that will provide a cute little tray for Dad to keep all his stash.

And, finally, I spent almost a half an hour trying to find the blog that this image came from so that I could give credit where credit is due, but I kept running into walls.  If you know where it came from – please let me know!

But, seriously.  How brilliant is this Mustache Cake?!  So easy.  Dad mustache you to make it every year for Father’s Day! 🙂

I’m starting to think that maybe the mustache is the new ‘tie’ of Father’s Day (check out all my great Father’s Day Tie Ideas HERE).

Happy Father’s Day Mustache-ing!

I like to make people happy.✨ Author of #thekindnessantennae 🎉 💛Psalm 28:7💛
  • The Queen was welcomed to Heaven today. ❤️‍🩹

There are no words to adequately express what earth lost this morning. She was selfless, loving, kind, fun, glamorous, hard-working, positive, faithful, and so strong - right up to the end. 🤍

I grieve not being able to hear the sound of delight in her voice when we talked. She always called me her little Songbird. Her laugh was like tinkling bells. She taught me so much about loving God and loving others and living in quiet, faithful excellence for His glory. 🙌🏻

I’m just so thankful that her legacy lives on in my own mom and her 5 siblings and their families! Truly one of a kind people, living for God, faithfully and in His strength, day in and day out. 💛

Mom-Mom! I love you so much. I will miss you so much. I can’t wait to see you again. 🕊️

“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭116‬:‭15‬ ‭NIV‬‬
  • Summer no’s >>

🔕Wake up alarms

…and then drive around with donations in my car until next summer! 😆

Summer, please don’t ever end! 🫶🏻

So we got him one. 😉
  • 🌴 I love palm trees. 🌴 

They don’t break in storms - they bend *with* the storm. ⛈️ (John 16:33)

They stay green all year round. 💚 (Psalm 92:14)

They grow best when it’s hot. ☀️ (Jeremiah 17:8)

They produce good fruit to be a blessing to others. 🥥 (Galatians 5:22-23)

They point straight up to heaven, reminding us of the goal. ⬆️ (Philippians 3:20)

Their branches are symbolic of victory. 🌿 (John 12, Revelation 7)

Go and be like a palm tree today! 🏝️🙌🏻🤩

“The righteous will flourish like the palm tree…” Psalm 92:12
  • ☀️Annual happy place week!☀️

The boys are trying to shoot me with water guns while I sit by the pool. The moon is a sweet bright spot in the night sky. A couple just rode by on the Broadwalk with music and extravagant lights on their bikes. The wind is gently moving the palm tree branches. Zion has a case of late night giggles. Noah is eating 3 scoops of ice cream from the Ben and Jerry’s shop and I am wishing this night will never end!

Thank you for another magical week, Hollywood. 🫶🏻 We will be counting down the days until next year!

  • We are celebrating that because of the cross we have the unwavering favor of God. Because of the cross we are pursued daily by God’s perfect love, we are offered forgiveness and freedom, and we are equipped with the hope of the Holy Spirit. Thank you, Jesus!

  • Things I’ve learned from breaking my tailbone >>

1. It is possible to wear only 4 outfits in 2 weeks.

2. God is more concerned with developing character and deep roots than about our physical comfort.

3. My children don’t love to see me bedridden, but they love that they have been able to eat nuggets, pizza, and fries for 2 weeks.

4. When you can’t sleep because of pain or wild imagination that is not helpful, put on worship music.

5. A good prayer to pray, “Show me the depth of my need for You and shatter my self-sufficiency. Change my mindset so that prayer becomes my first response in every situation. May I seek You in all things. Help me to put all my hope in You...”

6. Hold on to a sense of humor. Or find someone to get you laughing. Even though it will hurt to laugh. You need to not take it all so seriously!

7. God’s people are so precious. People showed up on our doorstep with lasagnas, flowers, sandwiches, Uber Eats gift cards, and one dear soul even sent her cleaning ladies to our house to undo the damage of mama being down for days on end. Whenever I was tempted to despair, someone would text or bring by some freshly cut fruit. The message here is don’t ask, just do > because every act of kindness reminded me of Who is in charge.

8. When hard times come, lean into gratitude instead of fussiness and resistance. Thank your husband for carrying everything while you’re down, thank your community for carrying you to Jesus, thank the Lord for being present in all circumstances with a plan for your good and His glory. There is a reason God tells us in the Bible to do all things without complaining or disputing-so that you. will. shine. It’s not easy, but the reward is GREAT. I want the world to see Jesus shining in me in my adversity. Doesn’t mean you can’t cry and admit that what you are facing is so very difficult, but this can be done with a surrendered heart. This is the new assignment. Accept it, receive it as something that is from a loving Father. Look for the provisions along the way. You will go from strength to strength. Move forward with hope. He’s got you!
