Boat season MVP 🛥️

One of my favorite boat upgrades this season is these CASSI Gear Totes from @missionoutdoor.mo 🌊 Mine are the 23L in Sandstone and the 50L in Sage.

They’re made with marine-grade materials, have waterproof bottoms, rinse clean in seconds, and are perfect for hauling everything from towels and snacks to life jackets and boat gear. If you’re looking for a durable lake bag that can handle real life, these are it. 

Drop “Mission Boat Tote, please!” For the 🔗!

One school award my kids probably won’t win? Perfect attendance. 😅

Education is important to me, but so is family time. A few missed school days for vacations, travel, and making memories is a trade-off I’m happy to make.

The lessons learned outside the classroom matter too. ❤️

Planting days + little backyard upgrades = my kind of therapy 🌿☀️🪴
Spent the day working in the garden, watering everything with my favorite stainless steel hose, keeping the patio bird-free with the cutest little owl, and getting my hands dirty in the comfiest gardening gloves 🤍

It’s the simple things for me lately… fresh herbs, growing veggies, warm sunshine, and making our backyard feel extra cozy for summer ✨🌱
