Hello Friends!
Welcome May
We have had another whirlwind week here at Two Trails One Road. From travel to New Mexico to a Derby Party to a small gathering of friends for Cinco de Mayo. It’s been a great beginning for the month of May.
We had quite the adventure looking for Elk Burgers! It turns out the FDA has some rules that only allow farm-raised Elk on restaurant menus. We finally found a delicious farm-raised Elk Burger after lots of searching and making phone calls. A wonderful establishment in Show Low, AZ served us exactly what we wanted! We did get to see farm raised Elk grazing on a ranch nearby.
The whole area in the Gila National Forest was gorgeous along with the nearby Apache National Forest in Arizona. This was a lovely getaway with friends.
Kentucky Derby Party
After we returned home from our travels, it was time to prepare for the Kentucky Derby Party. Great fun was had by all even though my horse came in second. It’s always such an exciting two minutes to watch!
There was a great photo booth, so of course, we had to take more pictures.
Great fun and great food was had!
Cinco de Mayo
This day only comes around once a year. Therefore, it must not go by without being celebrated with friends while enjoying homemade guacamole and salsa with chips, taquitos, and margaritas.
My friend brought this delicious Mojito Lime Torte. A lovely ending to a beautiful evening with friends.
Mother’s Day
We will be celebrating Mother’s Day this coming Sunday. I reminisce on this day of my dear Mom and the invaluable lessons I learned from her. I also remember how much I enjoyed sitting at her dinner table chatting about family, recipes, and gardening. Mom would pour coffee, serve her delicious baked goods, and we would sit for hours talking the day away.
On Mother’s Day I too remind myself of what wonderful children we have. We are truly blessed.
I have a special heart pendant that my Mom gave to me. It was her’s and she put my two little boys faces in it and gave it to me when I was a young Mother. I cherish this gift!
Our daughters are wonderful Mothers. We are so proud of how they are raising their daughters. And this is our daughter in loves first Mother’s Day. We are very excited for her special day!
We wish for all Mothers to have a wonderful day. Happy Mother’s Day!
Thank You
That’s all for now. We hope you are enjoying May’s fun activities, gardening, and, hopefully, beautiful weather.

We are wishing all of you a wonderful week ahead. Enjoy what this upcoming week brings to you. And whatever you have planned… make every day count and be thankful for your Blessings.
