Happy 83rd birthday to my Daddy! So fun to celebrate it with him today (and an early Father’s Day). ❤️❤️🎈 Photo by @lauragodwinland from a few years ago! 🙏🏻
He loves those two boys so much, and they love him right back. ❤️❤️❤️ Happy Father’s Day @bradpaisley, and to all the great dads out there, including mine and his!
Happy birthday to my Mom. 🙏🏻 I miss you so much. I love this picture of her from my wedding, but what’s with @ashleywilliamsandcompany’s confused look behind her, not to mention our priest, conjuring up some kind of… magic? 🤷🏻♀️😂✨🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️ 📸 by @laraporzak
It was an epic #statedinner at the White House last night honoring President Ruto of Kenya with a black tie affair, distinguished guests, and special performances by the @howard1867 gospel choir and @bradpaisley ✨✨✨ It was an honor to meet you Mr. President @williamsamoeiruto. A night we will never forget.
My m/u by @carolamyers and dress by @rachelgilbertau Thank you @jenniferkempwardrobe ❤️
LISTEN to the sounds of a Tennessee summer on the Fiery Gizzard trail! There were seven waterfalls and @erikayoungcoaching and I jumped in! It was a gorgeous, healing, transformative day. Highlight of my summer! ❤️🌎🌳💧#tennessee #summer #fierygizzard #trails #hikes #waterfalls
Cheers to old friends!! Mina and I met when we were 7 years old and became best friends in elementary school. I love that we’re still in touch! Last night we went to @notebookmusical and bawled our eyes out (it’s incredible and gorgeous), and then stayed out way too late with our hubbies and some sweet friends! It was a blast. 💙💙💙 #iloveny ❤️❤️❤️ @mmckier

My son Huck and I went to Honduras recently on another trip with @careorg into the field to see some of the work they are doing. CARE operates in over 100 countries, including disaster relief in Gaza, Yemen, Turkey and Syria, the border with Ukraine, Haiti, Somalia and Afghanistan, as well as long-term recovery in places like the dry corridor of Central America, where we were. This area is particularly impacted by climate change and an influx of migrants traveling through from all over the world. In Honduras, we got to see what happens when we invest in women and climate resilience, and tailor solutions at the local level. These people don’t want to leave their homes or their communities. We met Teresa, a relentless warrior and president of the “Walking Together” Farmer Field Business School that produces grains, beans, cashews, and a variety of fruits, and helps fight food insecurity and poverty in her village. We met Nelson and Myrna, whose improved agricultural practices have boosted production and income generation in a place where climate change has caused extensive drought seasons, providing a way out of poverty for people who would otherwise be forced to migrate. Finally, we spent an afternoon with “Women Weaving Lives Free of Violence” a CARE project that provides protection and support for women survivors of gender-based violence—from psychosocial services to legal assistance. Their stories were a shocking reminder of the continuous violence so many women around the world face every day, and how it often goes ignored. The experience was proof to me of just how important it is to keep fighting poverty and social injustice every single day and everywhere we can, both domestically and around the world. 🌎 🧡🧡🧡

Here at @thestore_nashville we aim to share love and respect with our customers, and yesterday we got to do the same with their furry family members at our first-ever “Vet Store”! This project is the brain child of @drmollysays and @lemoncollaborative who have just launched @thecompanionprojectusa, whose mission is to preserve the human animal bond by providing free, high-quality veterinary services for people who cannot afford the care their pets need. There was SO MUCH LOVE and kindness in that room! It was magic. 😭😭 We are beyond grateful to all of the veterinarians and vet techs who showed up, both locally and from as far away as New Jersey and Indiana. They worked hard all day, serving over 100 animals. These pets received vaccines, heart worm tests and preventive care, microchipping if needed, an eye exam and treatment if needed, flea and tick treatment and prevention, and they left with treats and food and necessary meds. Special thanks to our top sponsors @purina @merckanimalhealth and @neogencorp We love our customers and appreciate being able to help their furry companions! ❤️❤️🦮🐈 #loveatthecore #animalhealthcare
New baby donkey alert! Momma Dove and her baby Olaf have joined us. They are the sweetest! 🫏🫏🤍🤍
A made-up baked stuffed zucchini dish with leftover rice, veggie protein, peppers, onion, homegrown tomatoes, cheese and whatever seasoning seemed good at the time. In retrospect, I’d dig out the zucchini a little more and cook slightly longer so it was softer. Otherwise, this was perfect! Baked at 400 for like 20-30 minutes but don’t quote me on that. Make up your own! 😁 #supper #gardenveggies
Today we had our first Back to School Bash at @thestore_nashville! It was a great turnout of our customers, volunteers, community partners and amazing donors! We gave away backpacks, water bottles, binders, writing utensils, encouraging notes, and so much more, and families were treated to healthy banana splits, a bouncy, bubbles, face painting, games and more! Thank you everyone who supported this event! 💚💚💚💚#schoolsupplies #backtoschool #loveatthecore
The best summer game was invented at our house this weekend (let me know if you’ve ever done this!). One person creates an image and then passes it to the next who tries to copy it, (and add their own spin) like a game of telephone. No one gets to see the evolution of the images until the end. So fun!!! What should we call it? 😁✨ #summer #games
