Every weekend I look for food trucks that will be in our local area. Since the Minnesota State Fair was canceled and we can't really travel much, finding and trying out new food trucks every weekend has kinda become our thing. I've seen Kona Ice of Stillwater posts in our local mom's groups and I have been eager to try it out. When I saw that it was going to be in downtown Stillwater today I knew that was the food truck Peyton and I were going to check out this weekend. I knew what time Kona ...

Items You Need for a Birthday Weekend at Great Wolf Lodge
The world is pretty different today than when I booked this birthday party back in November 2019 for May 2020. Who would have ever thought we would be where we are today?

Just place the foil packets on the edge of the campfire or over the grill. To make these steak and potato foil packets you will need the following - 2 ...
