Have you heard that Monsters University is in theaters right now? Have you seen it yet? We plan on seeing it at the drive-in in a few weeks. (A visit to the drive-in is a summer time tradition for us!) Anyways, to get the kiddos excited about the movie we decided to have a fun Monsters University party one afternoon last week! We wanted to do a monster craft, play with some Monsters University toys & have a healthy drink & lunch. We decided to make our own monster cups, and then after that we had a fun monster themed lunch with Juicy Juice!

Butter Pecan A&W Root Beer Floats #IceCreamFloat

I am a member of the Collective Bias®  Social Fabric® Community. This shop has been compensated as part of a social shopper insights study for Collective Bias and their client. #cbias #shop

Nothing says summertime more to me than an #icecreamfloat! Growing up each summer my dad would play softball, and if he hit a homerun during the game we would drop by the store & pick up the some A&W root beer and ice cream. Then when we got home we would have root beer floats to celebrate! It’s one of my very favorite family traditions, and lucky for us my dad hit a lot of homeruns! ha! :) My dad’s favorite ice cream is butter pecan. So keeping with the “dad” theme, I decided to combine the two to make these yummy Butter Pecan Root Beer Floats.
