My daddy is a very special guy. I think we all feel this way about our dads, but life feels like it would be impossible without him. He has done countless things for me my entire life, but especially when I decided to open a store - he was my hands-on contractor and go-to for so many things. He's also my advice giver, my roller-coaster partner, and so much more.

This year for Father's Day, I teamed up with Snapfish to gift my dad something personalized. I feel like we're always looking at old photos on our phones from vacations and moments past, so a photo book featuring the last few years (and a few throwbacks of just him) seemed like the perfect memento for my dad. 

What I love about Snapfish is that the personalization aspect is so unique and it makes such a wonderful keepsake. Though you can start from scratch, I opted to use the "Best Dad Ever" template. While creating the leather-bound book for my dad, I loved that there were so many great Father's Day embellishments to create a unique gift that was just for him. Even better, I gave it to him just before my grandparents and aunt stopped by to visit, so they loved looking through some of our treasured memories as well! I included photos from vacations, our wedding and a few old photos from by dad back in the day. We also love spending time together out on the boat, so I used a few fun selfies from our favorite days out on the water. 

Another thing I ordered for my dad was a photo card. While I love browsing the card aisle, what was great about this is that it's a card completely unique to my dad and one that is a perfect photo keepsake too! I used a template specific to Father's Day and included a few of my favorite "dad and me" moments from my wedding. 

If you're looking for a budget-friendly gift idea that's personalized for your dad, I would highly recommend checking out Snapfish! I think I'm enjoying the photo book almost as much as my dad.  And great news! Snapfish is offering Southern Style readers 40% off sitewide through the end of June! Use code GIFT4DAD at checkout.

Over the weekend, my family and I went to a reunion for part of my mom's side of the family. It was at my grandfather's house, which is complete with a farm that spreads out over the backyard. It was the perfect weather, so we spent the majority of the afternoon outside. It was nice to just spend the day with my family, eating lots of good and hanging out with the llama. Yes, that is in fact a real live llama. But one of my favorite memories from this day will be the swing -- from that very same tree hung a rope swing that I played on as a little girl. The rope has now been replaced with chain, and there is a new generation of children playing on it, but I was instantly taken back to my childhood. So very thankful for sweet memories like these.
With fall comes a lot of great sales -- just in the past week, Tory Burch and GiGi New York both had a Friends and Family sale that was amazing. This week, SHOPBOP is offering 25% off during their Friends and Family sale, and to say there are some great pieces would be an understatement. Whether you are shopping for yourself or for friends and family (Christmas will be here before we know it!), there are so many great items. My wish list is a mile long. Enter the code FAMILY25 at checkout -- and happy shopping!
