Big Canoe PART TWO

 Happy Wednesday! Sorry I missed you all yesterday, but I'm back today with a recap of our last two days in Big Canoe! 

If you missed PART ONE of our trip, you can read that here. 

On day 3, we slept in and I had coffee and did The Bible Recap. 

We then headed out to go wine tasting at Cairn View Winery. On our last trip we went to The Fainting Goat and loved it, but we wanted to try something different this time. I think we may have loved this one a touch more! We had charcuterie along with our wines- plus the BEST pepper jelly we have ever had! We even asked if they sold it- they don't, but our waiter was so kind to send us off with a little container of it to go! 

These were our favorites that we brought home! 

Back out for some golf! 



These views just do not get old! 

After golf, we went to get Mexican food! We loved this place last time and loved it just as much this time! 

We found another ice cream shop on this night. This one is closer to Big Canoe than the first one we went to. It was so good and in such a cute little shopping center! It's called Polar Bear Ice Cream and Coffee. 

Our view driving back to our treetopper one last time! 

The next morning, we got up to go back home. We went through Huntsville instead of Birmingham this time to avoid some bad weather. 

Once we got to Huntsville, we went straight for Trader Joe's! Here's everything I got on that trip! 

For lunch we had Wahlburgers! We tried this for the first time a few years ago in Las Vegas, and we were so excited when we saw it right by Trader Joe's! 

We got home about 7pm and then played this Office trivia game for quite a while! 

We had a great little getaway! If you're considering a trip to the mountains, we cannot recommend Big Canoe enough! It's a great place to do nothing, but there's also TONS to do! 

Have a great Wednesday!

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

Friday Favorites {6.6.25}

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

 Happy last Friday of August! As always, I am here to link up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from my week.  To be honest, it feels out of touch to make this post. After the devastating news of yet another school shooting, my heart is so heavy. Innocent lives taken and still no changes from people in power. I honestly do not know how anyone can see news like this and not be enraged and demanding for change. I do not get political on here, because that is not what I want for this space. However, I feel the need to share my thoughts about this. America needs gun control. ALL Americans need access to healthcare, especially when it comes to mental health. America needs change. Remember these things when you vote. Think about your babies, their friends, their teachers. Stay aware, stay educated. But also please make sure you spend time doing things that bring you joy (it's good for your mental health!). That is at least what I am going to do. With that being said, here ar...
