Simple Summertime Snow Cone Joy

The secret to a perfect summer? ☀️⛱️😎 Remember that the simple joys are sometimes just as meaningful to the kids than all your elaborate planning and summer bucket lists and expensive day trips. (A bucket list would just make me feel guilty when we didn’t do it all. Truth.) Because I promise you my kids would much rather have a mom who says: ☀️“Hey!..”. While turning spontaneously into the little snow cone stand… ☀️“Who needs a snow cone?” ❌Than the mom who stresses while she plans out elaborate and sometimes expensive days. The decorations were simple. The ice was shaved and soft. The whole place was fun. 👉And my 16 year old declared it her new favorite place in Katy, Texas. (As she started scheming how she too could have a super cute snow cone place here in Georgia. Because there aren’t many for sure!) . . 😎Mamas, chill out and enjoy the kids. 😎Houstonians, look for Bahama Mama’s off Westheimer in Katy. 😎Georgians, make some more places! And I prefer shaved ice with natural flavors. Bonus if it tastes like Maui. 😉 👉Keep it simple. 👉Tell me how you’re enjoying the sun today! (Yes, I realize the irony of saying all this while stress planning our upcoming month-long international travels… But that’s not the point. 🤣). . . . .
