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!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {4.2.26}

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

 And just like that.....it's CHRISTMAS BREAK! And my last post of 2025! But before all of that, let's get into some faves from my week! Linking up with Erika and Andrea. Some Christmas funnies for ya.... 😂😂😂 "Underground Spirit Week" We dress up or do something silly and the students have no idea, so it's constant confusion and laughter! So fun! Monday- PJ day. Tuesday-  Anything but a bag. Wednesday- Favorite Christmas song or movie character. Oh Christmas Tree, Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, or as one student said...the Rockefeller Christmas Tree! Thursday- Christmas tree topper meets hat. This one did not last long in my hair...hahahah! Today is another PJ day for "Kinderland"! My name is Maddie, and I am obsessed with good smelling laundry.... These both smell AMAZING. The Wicked one smells exactly like the perfume I have been wearing- Jo Malone English Pear and Sweet Pea. Makes me sad that it's limited edition... I was looking for some go...
