When visiting Mount Rushmore National Memorial you When visiting Mount Rushmore National Memorial you should try the TJ ice cream!  This is the same recipe Thomas Jefferson originally brought to the US and made popular during his presidency.  It’s supposedly the first written ice cream recipe in the country, created in 1780.  I don’t really need an excuse to enjoy ice cream, but definitely couldn’t pass up historic ice cream!

We love visiting new places, but we also enjoy exp We love visiting new places, but we also enjoy exploring our own backyard.  This weekend we checked out the Christkindlmarkt in Carmel, Indiana.  This holiday bazaar features traditional German foods, music, and a marketplace of German goods. The atmosphere of craft stalls, outdoor ice skating rink, and thousands of Christmas lights is absolutely magical.  This is the second year Carmel has hosted this amazing event and our second year attending.  It’s definitely become a new family tradition.
