Start by adding 5 large scoops of pink ice cream to a blender.
I used Cherry Chocolate Chunk.
Now add half a cup of French Vanilla creamer {or use milk}.
Finally add 1 cup of chopped fruit. I used strawberries. 
Blend until smooth.
Add a layer of pink frosting around the rim of both glasses. 

 Roll the frosting coated rims in decorative sprinkles until completely covered.

 Pour the milkshake into the cups.

 Fill to the top then get ready to decorate!

First top with whipped cream then add your favorite colorful toppings.
Stella loved adding lots of sprinkles.
We added cotton candy, colorful marshmallows, wafer cookies, 
Nerds ropes, and a unicorn horn lollipop!

 Stella’s last birthday party was a unicorn party and this treat was perfect for her special day!

 Add a straw {ours was candy coated because why not?} and drink up!

 Look at those faces! They are clearly excited to dig in!

Well, we made it 8 years with my wild child with no broken bones...until skate night last night. Stella has a small fracture on her finger and had to get a splint at the hospital today. But in true Stella fashion, it is not slowing her down! #wildchild #mamasgirl #brokenbone #bravegirl #wildone

📚 We had a fun, sunny, book filled summer! My girls completed a whopping 9 summer reading programs across our local area! I am so proud that they have a  true love of reading at their young ages. For #WhatchaReadingWednesday I'm sharing this book, "101 Books To Read Before You Grow Up". It is filled with many of our favorites and many more to add to our growing list of soon to read books!
Here are our favorite books from the list:
Ava: "Tuck Everlasting"
Stella: "Charlotte's Web"
Me: "Where the Red Fern Grows"
What children's classics do you recommend?
