Tomato Watermelon Skewers

These are one of my favorite summertime apps.  They are cool, refreshing, and super tasty.  You've probably have never thought to combine these ingredients, but the flavors explode in your mouth.

Marshmallow Pops - Fun with Auntie Katie

Today I got to spend a few hours with my adorable nephews Justin & Collin and my beautiful niece Ashlyn. We had fun playing outside and getting super dirty. Then we got cleaned up and had a yummy lunch. Dora The Explorer was a hit and it was so much fun watching them mimic Dora and each other.

At snack time we made Marshmallow Pops with Sprinkles. We were all impatient and got messy again form the chocolate since we couldn't wait long enough for them to solidify.

We got cleaned up again, just in time for mommy to come back. I am looking forward to our next date!
