Teachers work so hard during the school year teaching our children and they even use their own money to buy supplies for their classroom. It's nice to give the teachers a gift during the year, or teacher appreciation week, to let them know how much their hard work means to you.

We usually buy a gift card for a restaurant and put it in a card from us. This year, my girls wanted to make something that was just from them. When we saw grape soda at the store, I knew it would be perfect for the gift.

Easy Dinner Idea ~ Potato Soup Bar

I don't know about you, but I love dinners that are easy, delicious, and make even the pickiest eaters happy. Fixing a potato soup bar hits all three of those points. Everyone can customize their soup to how they want it, which makes for a  happy mealtime.

Who doesn't love a warm bowl of delicious potato soup? It's pretty great made with potatoes, broth, and some seasonings. When you add a few good tasting extras, it makes your soup even better.

5 Yellowstone Must See Stops on the Southern Loop

Visiting Yellowstone National Park is a wonderful experience. There is natural beauty to see, plenty of wildlife,  and a nice leisurely drive. I would advise at least 2 days to explore the national park. One day for the northern loop and one day for the southern loop. Today I am going to share 5 must see stops on the southern loop at Yellowstone National Park.

Your entrance to the park will determine which places you visit first. When you enter the park they give you a map that shows the whole park. Those are great to use to take notes on where you want to visit and make note of what wildlife you saw at different points.
