    Churro Cheesecake Bars

    Churro Cheesecake Bars

    Churro Cheesecake Bars. Cinco De Mayo!  In high school, my Spanish teacher threw the most wonderful Cinco De Mayo parties.  We celebrated Mexican heritage and learned about this unique American holiday that Latinos in California started in the  late 19th century.  We would all bring food to share and play music and games.  Do you celebrate Cinco De Mayo with your family?

    This year I am keeping the food quick and simple.  I will be making oven baked fajitas and serving up these Churro Cheesecake Bars for dessert.  Here are a few of our family favorite Fiesta recipes. I hope this helps you plan your Cinco de Mayo celebration. There are so many great dishes to chose from:

    White Chicken Enchiladas

    Secret Recipe Taco Filling

    Chicken And Green Chili Pasta

    Oven Fried Mexican Chicken

    Crispy Chicken Roll Ups and Creamy Avocado Ranch

    Quesadilla Casserole

    Chicken Enchilada Pasta

    enjoy a night of Fiesta Fun!

    4. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture in to the bottom of the greased pan.

    ✨Yesterday I stood in the gardens at Mayo Clinic ✨Yesterday I stood in the gardens at Mayo Clinic with my kids.  I have so many things I could say. ⁣

    Today I wanted to chat a little bit about how I sh Today I wanted to chat a little bit about how I share my faith with others. It can be hard to figure out where to start, but by sharing your faith with even one person you've already made a difference.

Share your faith with those around you authentically. It's important to show that your life isn't perfect. Talk about the good and the bad and what God has done for you in those times!  Talking about God and His faithfulness each day helps create a natural flow.  Talk about God often through the day in casual settings and just in conversation. 

Pray for those you interact with. Pray for God to place someone in your life who needs Him.

Of course, my greatest way of sharing my faith is with you all. I love that we've created a community here full of joyfulness and rejoicing in God’s perfect ways. I've been able to write about my own experiences (good and bad/hard) on the blog and here on Instagram, in a way where I'm able to encourage and really connect with new friends.

If you ever need any advice I'm always here! Tag someone in the comments you want to pray for today. Or simply leave us your 🙏 to spread a little joy 💕

    This travel schooling adventure has been nothing s This travel schooling adventure has been nothing short of amazing. We have finished out 2 weeks on the road and we have driven over 2,000 miles! We zigzagged across Utah and went through the center of Arizona.

My very favorite scenery so far has been Arches National Park. My goodness…..it is stunning! We went twice to Goblin Valley to play on all of the big red rocks.  

We still have about 5 more days before we get home and plenty more to explore.

We are creating memories that will bond us for life and I am so so thankful for this special time together.

What’s one of your top favorite places you’ve ever visited? Comment below 💕
