Okay, this is pretty sweet. 💛
If your kids have an amazing Grandma, Grandpa, Nana, Papa, or another special grandparent they absolutely adore, here’s a fun way to surprise them for Grandparents’ Day!

Lamar Advertising Company is giving families the chance to submit a favorite photo of their grandparents for the opportunity to appear on a digital billboard. Selected Grandparents’ Day photos will be displayed on Lamar digital billboards across the U.S. from Sept. 9–16. If your image is chosen, how fun would it be to see Grandma or Grandpa larger than life? 💕

Just upload a photo at https://LamarGrandparentsDay.com If selected, you’ll receive an email with a map showing where your tribute will appear, along with a virtual mockup of the billboard.

📚🍎✏️ Happy Back to School! Whether it’s the very first day of kindergarten or the start of another big school year, this season brings so many emotions, excitement, nerves, pride and maybe a few extra hugs at drop-off.

We’re wishing every student a year filled with new friendships, confidence, curiosity, kindness and plenty of reasons to smile.

And to all the parents: take the pictures, give the extra hugs and soak in these moments, even the busy and hectic ones. The days can sometimes feel long, but these years go by so quickly. ❤️

Here’s to supporting one another, cheering on our kids and making this the best school year yet for families across San Diego County. We’re rooting for you!
