Can you believe school is out? Summer is in full swing! Soon it will be hot & the kiddos are going to be saying, “I’m bored!”or looking for something to do. (Or maybe you’re desperately trying to get the kiddos off electronics?) Am I right? ha! ;) Well, don’t worry, I’ve got you covered! Over on the Life Storage blog I am sharing 10 Awesome DIY Crafts that your kiddos will LOVE to do this summer!
Good morning to you! Ahhhh……summer time! Isn’t it awesome? Yesterday we spent all day at the lake. I’m a little burnt, but it was so much fun. The kiddos were covered from head to toe with sand. ha! So to celebrate all things summer, I’ve rounded up 12 Summer Treats that were linked up to last week’s party. Remember this week’s party is still going on! Feel free to stop by & check out all the links. If you are a blogger be sure to link up your latest ideas & projects, so I can feature you, too. You can do that right {HERE}.

Hello! It’s summer! I’ve shared before how much I love summer & how much I love spending time with my amazing kiddos! One of our “simple joys of summer” is spending time in the kitchen baking up a new recipe, so today I am excited to share this easy & yummy Chunky Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe with you. Annnnd you know if you eat a cookie, you are are going to want a glass of ice cold milk to go with it! ha! If kiddos don’t drink milk regularly, it can make it super hard for them to get the nutrients they need to grow. Today I’d also love to tell you about The Great American Milk Drive. You’ll find out how you can help deliver nutrient-rich milk to those in need & help ensure that all children have the potential to play, learn & grow. So let’s get started! :)

Hello! Summer means ice cream, right? ;) I’ve have seen this homemade ice cream recipe floating around the internet for a while now, & I couldn’t wait to try it out to see if it worked. Annnnd since I always have sweetened condensed milk in my “cantry” I had just about everything I needed to make this No Churn S’more Ice Cream on hand. Yay! I love sharing how canned foods make homemade easy as part of my partnership with Cans Get You Cooking! I love cooking with can foods. Canned foods mean less prep & year-round availability. Using can goods helps make healthy, homemade meals, desserts & yummy recipes like this one a reality, a lot more often at our house. Now let’s get to that recipe!
