Caramel Apple Sangria

Back when we had Lincoln's baptism, I mentioned that I made a caramel apple sangria, and realized that I never got around to sharing the recipe! It was seriously so easy to throw together, and was so tasty! The original recipe can be found here. It is very sweet, so my recommendation would be to add a bit of sparkling water to break down the thickness of the cider a bit. This recipe is perfect for your Thanksgiving dinner, girl's night, or any time you are looking for a drink that tastes like fall in a glass!



Caramel Apple Sangria
Ingredients
One 750ml bottle of crisp white wine (I used Pinot Grigio)
One cup caramel flavored vodka
Six cups apple cider
Two medium sized apples

Directions
1. Combine vodka, cider, and wine in pitcher. Stir well.
2. Chop and core the apples. Throw into pitcher, and scoop into glasses when serving.
3. Serve chilled or over ice.

That's it! Ridiculously easy to make, and so delicious. Enjoy!

Linking up with Annie today.

Family Photos 2016

After trying to do it ourselves, last minute cancellations, and finally getting things together, we have our family photos! Truth be told, I decided to be frugal and wanted to just snap some pictures for the Christmas card on our own this year. And about two seconds into having my brother in law attempt to capture us with two squirmy little boys, my husband actually put in the request that I call our tried and true photographer, Amanda. And I was happy to oblige. While photos can always seem so daunting, and are becoming increasingly difficult as time moves forward, I am always so overwhelmingly thankful to have these precious times in our lives captured in beautiful candids. We actually took these right out in our new development, which made grabbing snacks and cleaning up puked on baby clothes mid-session much easier ;-) I am so in love with our new home, and love that we were able to capture so many fun shots right in our own living room and back yard!
