Make the Most of Your Sweetest Moments

Yum

March 5, 2016 By Autumn Rose Reo 120 Comments

This sweet look at life is brought to you by BASKIN-ROBBINS. No matter what life brings, make the most of your sweetest moments. 

The other day while I was buying clothes for the kids, a little tear rolled down my check.

As I continued to thumb through the new size for my son, I kept looking at shirts and thinking, “there’s no way he can wear these!?? These are much to big for my little guy.” Except I knew I was wrong.


He is exactly THAT size. 

As I stepped back at the rack, I realized at in the big room full of clothes consigned for the sale, that each of these rows of clothes weren’t just a room full of well-kept hand-me-downs. They were like little time capsules of each family’s experiences as a child experienced their first day of school, Christmas, a birthday – whatever – they had done it in that shirt. And now it was time for my kid to do the same. 

Baskin-Ice-Cream-Sandwich3

I wasn’t sure if it was one of those hormonal mama moments or what, but all of a sudden, I realized that I looked like Gene Simmons with my mascara running down my face. 

However, it was a good thing. I was getting my own little reminder of how quick they grow up. 

Later when I battled sat in the carpool line to get them from school, I didn’t immediately take them up to start the everyday grind of snack, homework, dinner, bath, book and then bed. 

Instead we went to Baskin-Robbins.

But today it wasn’t just ice cream either. We went for sweet goodness – all.the.way. We went for ice cream sandwiches.

Baskin-Robbins-New-Ice-Cream-Sandwiches

Each of the kids bellied up to the bar to pick two warm cookies – chocolate chip, macadamia  nut, chocolate chocolate chunk or peanut butter. Part of me wanted to order for them, but another mama moment made me see they didn’t need me to do that anymore. 

They could make their own decisions…without my mama’s help. 

Next pairing it with their favorite pick of ice cream. The girl quickly pointed to something pink, purple and filled with sprinkles. The boy, who thinks long and hard about each selected in life, landed on the newest BR flavor, Cookie Jar Mashup, Filled with OREO®, CHIPS AHOY!® and NUTTER BUTTER® cookie pieces with vanilla ice cream swirled with a chocolate ribbon. I gloated a little as I felt he had made just the choice I would have. (Points for mom for instilling good taste.)

Next came the toppings  – one with more sprinkles the other one without. Last the slightly warm cookies sandwiched the ice cream together for two awesomely gooey treats. 

Normally, I would have begun the freak out by requesting the cookies be put in a bowl and carefully asked them not to get their clothes dirty. Actually, I’m pretty sure I would have pulled out the placements I have in the car (yes, I do), but today, it was about just enjoying the simple things.

Like ice cream and cookies. And lots of love. 

And man, it was a mess. Partly because it’s Texas and it’s already 75 degrees. And the other part because they’re kids and that’s what they do. They make big messes. BIG BIG MESS.

Baskin-Robbins-New-Ice-Cream-Sandwiches

But somehow I didn’t care as we licked the remaining bite and ran to the bathroom to get it off our fingers, face, and my toe. 

Today was about making the most of our sweetest moments. 

And you should too. 

Make time today to celebrate your sweetest moments. One lick at a time.

They don’t always remember the days where it was simple and beautiful, but, this Momma does. Thanks for sharing your Baskin and Robins day with us.

    My favorite way to enjoy it is in a cup with one scoop each of Jamoca Almond Fudge and Mint Chocolate Chip.

A holiday bucket list item was to go to holiday tea - and best of all, they loved it - scones, sandwiches, tea and all!
____
At the @theashtonhotel they even have a “kids” version although mine wanted to try ours, too! Some of our favorite holiday traditions are changing since the kids are getting older, but in #DFW there are so many things to do, we still haven’t done them all. 
____
If you need a good list of holiday of events to do in #DFW, we have them posted #ontheblog now - including some giveaways you don’t want to miss (coming soon!) #dfwevents #visitfortworth
Instagram post 2190890470218356850_9652031 There’s more than one reason they call it a Happy Meal. #givingtuesday
_____
While those 🍟 make us all smile, did you know that each pound of @mcdonalds fries and every Happy Meal you get, gives $ to the @rmhdallas?
____
As a parent I want them to understand the idea of sharing and giving, especially to those less fortunate than you. And this is an easy way for everyone to win this holiday.
____
Learn how you can #McGiveBack this holiday and win a @mcdonalds gift card #ontheblognow.

_____
Rolling down TX 290, we found @hyetxrum. Founded, Operated and Led by three wine/spirits masterminds, Hye Rum is a little oasis in hill country of some of the best damn cocktails carefully crafted using the highest quality non-GMO molasses and French Oak. Get the butter rum. Get the painkiller. And don’t miss the bad ass Cuban sandwich.
____
Hill Country may be known for some wonderful wines but this rum shouldn’t be missed. (And go often.)

Wine is always a winner - especially when it’s personalized, wrapped with a bow, delivered and best of all >>>> cleancrafted (better for you!)

Order your holiday kits and wine clubs for friends and clients - and leave all the work for us to get it to the door and under the tree before Christmas!

.
Quite possibly my favorite place on this Earth, I was able to steal 48 hours away from real life to explore this little piece of heaven called #HyeTexas.
.
From the amazing people, the wine, the whiskey, the vodka, the cider, and the food, there’s not much more to good. livin’ than what this town of 214 people in the Texas Hill Country makes happen.
.
Can’t wait to share more of my trip and why you should have this one on top of your TEXAS Bucket List. (Well maybe not...)

______
Thankfully I have my two front teeth, but I would love a crown that doesn’t take 3 weeks or half a paycheck to pay for it! Recently I went shopping for a new dentist for me, but I wanted to find a place that worked with our busy schedule (7 am - 7 pm and weekends), our budget (like discounted dentistry), and didn’t make me nauseous when the drill turned on.
______
At Glade Modern Dentistry not only did they get me after work, have multiple services (oral surgery, periodontist, endodontist, ortho) all under one roof - including getting a crown all in one day. 🤩Plus they don’t call it SMILE for nothing!

Instagram post 2170108022832248704_9652031 Do you know the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day? 🇺🇸(Unfortunately, many people don’t.)⁣
⁣
Memorial Day is to remember those who gave their life for our country while Veterans Day honors those who have served our country, living or fallen.⁣
⁣
It’s our turn to say “thank you” for everything they’ve done for us. ⁣
Also remember: Next Monday, 11/11, McDonald's will honor all active/retired Vets (with ID) by offering a free extra value meal (5:30 am -8:30 pm.)⁣
⁣
It’s their way of saying thank you or what we like to say “McGiveback.”⁣

Instagram post 2168766144186709815_9652031 Yesterday was Dia de los Muertos...
today is Christmas (at least if you hit the stores or checked your email.)💀
______
I wish there was more time to actually enjoy the holidays rather than rush through them especially this one.
_______
This was actually from last weekend at the first #BigD Dia de los Muertos parade and we came out in a big way.

🎃Last week we hosted the first #GoGoWeen at @mrbones in #LA to launch @gogosqueez new Halloween packs! The costume fashion show was adorable with @erinziering and @beverleymitchell as well as a few kiddos from @abcmodernfam, @nbcthisisus plus even @jennipulos, @ianziering, and @gillesmarini came for the fun. Now that’s how you do a pumpkin patch!

We squeezed in a day to say howdy to #BigTex, score @fletcherscornydogs, chow down on the Deep Fried Chicken Fettuccine Balls, play some @nintendoswitches, and love on the 🐷 and 🦙. Everything after that is (cream) gravy!

Instagram post 2151995665564379360_9652031 💀It takes a village to create the scariest village known as “The Village on Front.”
🎃A haunted experience within Knapp Heritage Park, this real historical park from the 1800s becomes the site of the tale of Mary, a little 8 yr old who’s looking for her dead parents. Look for her and see what you’ll find when you get lost in the village.
☠️Warning: Hit the john before you go so you don’t pee your pants. And don’t bring anyone who scares easily. Really.
📆Starts Oct 11 and monies go towards revitalizing @arlingtonhistory. #ArlingtonTx #Halloween #thisisarlington
