It's Day 3 of my Ninja Turtles cocktails! The kids are back in school today after the nice long holiday weekend, which means it's time to clean up all of the stuff that I can't clean while they're here. Actually 3 of the kids are back in school because........our oldest.......is out of school and officially a senior! What? Who said that? I stood next to him in the bathroom mirror today......yea I'm short.

The weather has been nice for the past few days here, which I love. I am SO ready to wear shorts, tank tops and flip flops every day for a while now.

Today I move onto Leonardo as my turtle of the day. Leonardo is strong, fearless and a great leader. Thinking of those traits I thought my go to ingredient for this cocktail should be tequila. At least for me when I drink tequila I think I'm strong, fearless and a great leader!
