Now that summer is here, I love making these yummy refreshing smoothies. With 3 simple ingredients, everyone in the family will loves these. First, grab the goods.  1. Frozen fruit.  I love this fruit mix. It is my very favorite. They have it at Costco as well. I just grabbed a bag from my grocery store and it's great. Also, I find that using frozen fruit means that I don't have to add ice. 2. Yogurt.  I have tried many different yogurts and I find I like this one the best. I buy it big so my kids can enjoy a bowl of yogurt as well. 3. Coconut water. I found that juice is too sugary and sweet. I didn't like the extra sweetness and wanted something a little more healthy. Ok so now lets mix!! In the blender: 2 Cups frozen fruit 1/2 cup yogurt 3/4 bottle of coconut water Blend till smooth. Add water in as needed. Start off with 1/4 then add more as you mix to get the right consistency.   Pour in cups and enjoy!

I have been waiting for July to come for 9 beautiful months now. I can't believe that it is already here! I have loved summer so far. June was perfect weather, especially for Utah. It was in the 70's and never left. 4th of July came and 100 decided that it needed to greet us. I have never been hotter in my life! So up to the lake we went. We played in the water, Sadie built a sandcastle with Uncle Moe and Auntie Kinz. It was perfect. I love when family comes together for fires, s'mores, swimming, boating, and camping. It is my favorite thing. What are your favorite summer activities?

I love summer and I hate to see it end. There are still so many things I want to do! Tube down the river, have a campout in the backyard, watch a movie outside. Summer can't be over yet! I remember last summer just waiting for fall to come, so that Sadie baby would get here! Now and want to slow time down and take it in. She'll be one before I know it. With that in mind I took Sadie outside and took her pictures. I have been playing with photoshop and love what I captured. The girl does something to me. I just love her!
