With Donald's flair for restoration and Amy's culinary creativity, they transformed their truck into a rolling haven of retro charm. As the family hits the road across Southwest Missouri, the jingle of their truck becomes a melody of family togetherness and entrepreneurial spirit. With each scoop, they not only serve up delectable desserts but also dish out heaping portions of love, laughter, and shared dreams.
