If you live here, you know—summer doesn’t exactly sneak up on us. We’ve already had a taste of the heat, the longer days, and that shift into a slower, more laid-back rhythm.

If you’re traveling this summer—or just enjoying time at home—send us a photo! Vacation shots, family traditions, or a great backyard/boating moment… we’d love to include them in an upcoming issue. You can send all submissions to Stories@N2Co.com.

The photo below is from a cruise my family took to the Bahamas to celebrate my dad’s 50th birthday. We surprised him with matching shirts with his caricature on them—and they were a HUGE hit. If you’re looking for a simple way to get some laughs and make Dad feel like a celebrity for the day, this one’s hard to beat!

With Father’s Day coming up, it felt like the perfect time to share. Here’s to celebrating the dads and father figures who mean so much to us.

Hope you enjoy this month’s issue—and that you find a little time to slow down and enjoy the season. And don’t forget to send in those photos!
