Last Sunday we were blessed to cater & celebrate another special graduate🎈🎉🎊🍾🍻🎓 Madison graduated from Virginia Tech and is moving right along to teaching the third grade, at a school she used to attend as a child! How awesome and full circle is that! What a great way to make an impact in this world with molding, working alongside & teaching the next generations to come! We wish Madison allllll the best in her scholastic adventures and life!!! She most definitely has a bright future ahead and has a huge group of friends and family that are extremely proud and supportive!!! Jen you did an amazing job of putting everything together and coralling the best helpers(your cousin was great) and the little clean up crew at the end! I wish I had gotten some pictures of the decorations!!! Every thought and detail was filled with love and pride for your sweet girl;)

We might have to schedule a field trip to let her crew of kiddos stretch out their very own pizzas because hands on is the best way to learn🍕🥰

We are so thrilled for allllllllll things to come and to join in on such an honorable & historical event!!! Thank you so much for the kind words and for already making us feel so welcome in our new home;)

We’re excited to welcome Family Traditions as a first-time Bronze Sponsor of this year’s 18th Annual Chesty Puller Memorial Twin Bridge 10K!

As we’ve shared, this year has been a record-breaking year of sponsorships, and we’re incredibly grateful for the support of businesses like Family Traditions that are investing in both our event and our downtown community.

Even more exciting—Family Traditions will soon be opening right here in downtown West Point at 714 Main Street this summer! Their arrival is another great sign of the continued growth and energy happening in our town, and we’re thrilled to see a new locally focused business choosing to call Main Street home.

Known for their delicious Neapolitan-style pizzas, fresh sammiches, and family-centered atmosphere, Family Traditions is already creating excitement across the region. Their focus on quality food, community, and bringing people together makes them a perfect fit for West Point and for the spirit of the Chesty Puller 10K.

As a new downtown business and first-time sponsor, their support means a great deal, and we encourage everyone to follow their journey, support local, and get ready to welcome them to Main Street this summer!

Be sure to visit west-point.va.us/chestysponsors to see the full list of the amazing sponsors helping make this year’s race possible.

Thank you again to Family Traditions for supporting the Chesty Puller 10K—we’re excited to welcome you to West Point!

Paperwork....... is NOT my fav but it's a must and a big part of alllllll the things;) This is just for today🤪 The ABC paperwork is no joke and almost in another language but not my first rodeo!!!

Getting lots turned in to be compliant while also trying to ensure a swift schedule for opening, among other applications & donations!!! Yes, that's my bed that I'm doing office work from this morning because I don't get much time in it🤣

Baking is a true & precise science that can take a lot of botched 😬 up loaves, flour, time and patience to work your way through and then......... there's sourdough🤣 It's so good for you and adds so much flavor and depth but it can be especially tricky! It will definitely teach you over time to trust yourself and forget about watching the clock for proofing and fermenting..... it's a look, feel and touch kinda relationship;)

Would any of you fine folks be interested in hands on baking classes in the near future: rustic loaves, sourdough, pizza making & more? We can walk through tricks, steps, and allllllll the things with you! So you can be baking bread and stretching out pizzas in no time, at home for you & your family🍞🍕 Sharing is caring and we would be thrilled for any food lovers to join in on the kitchen shenanigans and keep passing it on like the Nonnas of the world!!!

Flooring makes a HUGE difference......
