I'm a pretty huge fan of cold hard ice cream. In fact, it may just be my kryptonite. Heaven help me if I ever invest in an ice cream maker, that might just be the end of skinny jeans for me. I must warn you, viewing this collection of pins is likely to set off an intense craving for ice cream.

1. Pistachio 2. Chocolate 3. Cookies & Cream 4. Coffee 5. Vanilla

6. Chocolate 7. Brownie 8. Marshmallow 9. Caramel 10. Mocha 11. Banana 12. Rolo

13. Blackberry 14. Blueberry Cobbler 15. Fig 16. Pomegranate 17. Peach 18. Creamsicle

19. Popcorn 20. Peanut Butter 21. Samoas 22. Avocado 23. Bacon 24. Green Tea

25. Nutmeg 26. Peppermint 27. EggNog 28. Guiness 29. Rum 30. Margarita 31. PB&J
32. Coconut 33. Honeycomb

What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Which of these crazy delicious flavors would you most want to try? I think Bacon, Honeycomb or Guiness would be top of my list. Yum!

I'm so happy you've come to party with me today!

Allow me to introduce you to my beautiful family:

Hubs = Jerry & Daughter = Zion

it's hard to imagine my life anywhere else!

Baxtron{Life} is a place where I share my heart &

the life I've been graciously given;

the things that I love and that inspire me;

it's a place where I connect with my freest thoughts &

expose pieces of the pain I've experienced,

but even more so,

it is truly a place where I have met the most amazing people -

people like YOU.

Thank you for visiting!

Enjoy the party (and the Holiday)

And of course a little bit of Red, White & Blue!
