How to Make Strawberry Mango Coolers:

• Add strawberries, mango, honey and orange juice to a blender and blend until smooth.
• Fill glasses with ice and pour about ⅓ cup of strawberry mango mixture over ice.
• Top with Sprite or club soda and stir to combine.
  Serve immediately.

They are a blend of fresh strawberries and mangos and a bit of orange juice mixed with ice and Sprite. A super simple recipe that you can make ahead of the party.

If you are hankering for something a little stronger, try this Pineapple Mango Rum Punch that is a refreshing and tasty party drink.

We just put in an above ground pool this week!! I’m so excited. I have wanted a swimming pool my whole life.

The upper part of our ranch, where our house is located, is on a limestone bluff. So it would take some blasting to put in a traditional in ground pool and a whole lot of money.

My husband did the dirt work and the boys helped him put up the pool. It was quite a task but oh man are we ever going to enjoy it.  It was way more affordable and we saved a lot by putting it in ourselves.

It is round so they could dish out the middle to make it a little deeper. It is probably about 5 foot deep in the middle, just perfect.

When we get the covered deck all finished, I will share some photos. In the meantime, I will be sipping lots of these Strawberry Mango Coolers while hanging out in the pool this summer!

So here’s to a great summer y’all!
