This year we spent Thanksgiving in Destin with our family from all over. We ended up having 18+ people for dinner! Lots of good food and full bellies for everyone 😉
I have posted our menu below and today I wanted to share the Apple Cider Punch I made (it was a hit and I swear it’s the easiest drink ever!). 
Only 2 ingredients are needed for this tasty punch.

Top with whipped cream and caramel for a more decadent drink!

  • Serve and I promise everyone will ask for the recipe. It's so tasty!

Another favorite drink is Ashton’s Warm Caramel Apple Ciders. Simple fill a glass with apple cider, heat for 30 seconds in the microwave, top with whipped cream and drizzle with caramel. Delish and made in a minute!

❤️This week marks 2 years since our beloved cocker spaniel Dylan passed away. I created this free printable Rainbow Bridge poem on the blog in honor of Dylan. It can be customized with your pet's photo and would be a  cherished framed gift for someone who has lost a special pet. #rainbowbridge #doglove #dogheaven #rip #mydog  #neverforgotten #rainbowbridge🌈

🌯Late #CincoDeMayo post! My first visit to @forttacostl last night was delicious! I tried a variety and loved it all. They were out of pork but that gives me an excuse to go back and try the al pastor pork and homemade sauce next time!

We spent Earth Day 2022 in Springfield at the picnic and a movie event in the gardens. It was the perfect sunny afternoon with a breeze and we shared a delicious charcuterie picnic and watched "Bee Movie". The girls did crafts, played in the park, listened to speakers and poetry, and @theparkboard gave us a tree to take home. We had a great time and everyone slept the whole drive home (except Mom)! #earthday2022 #springfieldmo #missourilife #movienight #earthday #picnic #familyfun
