Tonight we drove down to the city to meet my new nephew, Hudson, who was born yesterday! The hospital didn’t allow visitors under 16, so the girls waited outside with their grandma while I took some sweet photos of Hudson.


Afterward we decided to make a pit stop at Steak ‘n Shake. The girls begged to go in as usual, and somehow neither Nick nor I had ever actually been inside one. We had time, so in we went.


It was surprisingly cute. There were strong colors, bright lights, and a microphone mounted on the counter with a person handing out order after order of tall, frosty milkshakes in glasses. My girls felt like they were at an old school diner.


I happened to have my camera with me, so I pulled it out while we waited for our milkshakes. These are the results 🤍
