In addition to the green juice for breakfast, I also made them green veggie burgers made from fava beans for dinner. Look how excited they are! Happy St. Patrick’s Day, kids! #AssholeParent Henna tattoos at the @sagehill multicultural fair When they want Lucky Charms for St. Patrick’s Day but you give them kale juice instead. #assholeparent☘️ Tomorrow at @wayfarercm!

Making my boys and their friends rip a wall out while I cook dinner.  Kembe said “this is the best night ever” and he actually meant it. ?   Loved getting to take the kids to see @lisacongdon‘s exhibit tonight.

Karis’s gold bathing suit is giving me life. #targetdoesitagain Doing some demo this weekend and unearthed this incredible wiring job my dad and I did about 20 years ago.. So professional. I know what youare thinking. We should start a father/daughter DIY blog with home electrical tutorials. Praying about it. In the meantime you can pin this if you want.
