I love it when warm weather hits and we start uncovering from the cold. The pool will be open soon, the house will be full of friends and family and all the new flavors of Weight Watchers Ice Creams hit store shelves!!

In preparation for the upcoming summer we all decided it was time for an ice cream party!!

But remember, summer is coming.

That means while we all want sweets and treats, we have to watch the calories and what better way to have the best of both worlds than with Weight Watchers ice cream treats?! And thanks to Weight Watchers we had the opportunity to try all 6 of their new flavors, available in stores now!!

  • Blueberry Swirl Greek Frozen Yogurt Bars
  • Peach Swirl Greek Frozen Yogurt Bars
  • Snack Size Red Velvet Ice Cream Sandwiches
  • Cookies & Cream Dessert Bars
  • Chocolate Smoothie Frozen Yogurt Bars
  • GIANT Latte Bars

Let’s see what some of our guests had to say:

Stephanie loved the Giant Latte Bar.

I think she got a little hyped up…LOL

080

Erin went for the Cookies and Cream

087

Chuka just couldn’t be left out and said YUMMM, YUM!

090

Overall every flavor was a hit. I think my personal favorite would have to be the Snack Size Red Velvet Ice Cream Sandwiches but for an everyday treat I like the Cookies and Cream. Or the Chocolate Smoothie. Or the Giant Latte Bar. Or the Peach Swirl Greek Yogurt. Or the Blueberry Swirl Greek Yogurt. So yeah, I like them all. I just can’t help myself.

Apparently Roxie couldn’t help herself either!

It is so hard to believe that summer is almost over. Kinda makes me sad although fall is my favorite time of the year. I love the cooler weather, the changing of the leaves, wearing boots and sweatshirts. I love fall foods, they just speak comfort to my soul.

Tate in new sunglasses

Sunglasses and snorkels will be tucked away, the pool will be winterized and my favorite potato soup will be simmering away. School books are being selected, extra-curricular activities chosen…although I don’t think we will be venturing toward using a roland v accordion fr 1 any time soon.

This summer seems to have flown by quicker than any other, but like I have always heard, the older you get the quicker time goes by.

What is your favorite time of the year?

 

My girls

It doesn’t seem like this picture was taken that long ago.

It was taken in December.

We complained about the cold.

I am sooo, sooo sorry for that.

It was 105 on my porch today.

It is only May.

Help me now.

It is going to be a long hot summer I am afraid.

I would gladly take the cold back given the opportunity. The snow ball fights, the bundling up, the sprained ankles that require an ankle brace. All of it not to see another 105 degree day in May. I am just hoping that doesn’t mean even worse in July.

 

It is back into the swing of things. School is back into session for the majority of us, including us homschool families. We just celebrated the last big fling of summer around here and while it is sad to see it go I am so thankful for the cooler temperatures.

Ring Pop Prize Pack

The Summer Travel Giveaway Package from Topps Trading Cards and Bazooka Candy Brands is a great way to make sitting in the back seat, well, sweet! The package includes Topps Baseball Trading Cards, as well as some yummy treats like  sugar free and regular Ring Pop lollipops, Baby Bottle Pop candy, Push Pops, and Juicy Drop Pops. While summer is “officially” over,Ring Pops make a great back seat treat for sitting in the pick-up line after school. They are great for eating and sharing with friends during recess. Or while sitting at the table doing that much dreaded homework.

Tate at school

While we are a homeschool family and homework isn’t normally something we take part in you can often find Tate with a Ring Pop or Push Pop in his mouth while he works on his schoolwork. It is a favorite treat around here that is used as a reward and for motivation. Erin has always been partial to the Juicy Drop Pops and Marissa loves the Baby Bottle Pops. I love that they are all very affordable even for the tightest of budgets.

The above picture was taken on what is the first day of school for all of the public schools around here. We have been back at school here in our home for over 2 months. This particular morning Tate had already been squirrel hunting and was halfway through his schoolwork and it was 10 AM. What is on his curriculum list this year? Chemistry, Algebra, English Literature, Geography, American History and Japanese. A pretty intense load. Along with the fact that he takes karate and goes 3-4 times a week we stay pretty busy.

So, you can bet that anytime you come over there is a stash of Ring Pops, Push Pops, Juicy Drop Pops and Baby Bottle Pops to keep him motivated, on task and happy that he has a treat in hand. One  of our new favorites is the Sugar Free versions! Lower in sugar and calories with the same great taste.

TOPPS trading cards have been known for generations as THE cards to collect. I remember growing up my Dad always talking about his beloved Baseball Card Collection. I think almost every little boy has collected cards at some point in their lives and…
