Cool Drinks for Sumer

I could really go for a cool fruit drink right about now!

Today we're rounding up some refreshing drinks for those lazy days of summer.

If you've already started back to school,

check out Carrie's after school smoothie recipe too! :)

Funtastic Friday #137

We're in the "dog days of summer" y'all.

That time from July to September when the weather is hot and sultry.

We hope you are finding a way to cool off.

Our summer plans include trips to the lake, beach and pool this summer.

Are you getting in any water fun?

If your water activities include a party or family get together,

include our Anchors Away banner for the festivities.



Our host pick this week is this fun Raspberry Lemonade Sugar Lip Scrub from Busy Being Jennifer.
Sure will help our lips in this heat!

Summer decor projects

Summer is a great time to get some projects done around the house.

Today we've rounded up some fun things to DIY and spruce up your home décor.

Funtastic Friday #136

We were recently visiting family in Utah.
Out there on July 24 it's Pioneer Day.
They celebrate the early settlers coming into the valley
and establishing that great state.
Carrie has a fun button craft that you can make
while telling stories of early pioneers.



Everyone has a pioneer of some sort in their family tree.
It's those ancestors who came before and paved the way for you to be here.
Find one of your ancestor stories and share it with your family this week. :)

Now on to the link party!
