A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow.

Beach trips make summer more special!

Going to the beach is one of our favorite things to do during the summer. And although we prefer the ocean, any beach will do. Last summer, because of concerns about COVID19, we only made it to Presque Isle State Park in Erie, Pennsylvania. Still, because we had been locked up all year and the waves were high, we got our fix and it held us over till this summer.

This summer, we have a family trip planned to the Outer Banks of North Carolina where we plan to fellowship, play in the sand, and yes enjoy the ocean. Until then, these beach time memories will have to keep us going!

This our first time visiting Outerbanks. I lived in North Carolina and never made it previously. So, I'm excited. I've also organized this trip for nearly my entire family and the expectations are high. So, please help me look good! If you've been to the Outer Banks, let me know what you love about it. This is going to be our first time visiting there!
