Hi Friends and Happy Monday! I am here with my blogging partner Sarah and we are chatting about our weekends! If you celebrated, how was your 4th of July weekend? Ours was one of our favorites yet! Even though the older kids did not partake in our festivities, and that made me kind of sad, we enjoyed the weekend with some of our closest friends and family!
Here is what we were up to!
Thursday Night
Rob and I kicked off the holiday weekend with Lea and Mike. We had a great dinner at Beck's in town! Always a great time with our besties.
Friday
We were up bright and early- packed up the Jeep- and headed up to Tom and Laurel's Lake House. The weather was FABULOUS!
When we got there, we chatted for a bit, Rob cooked hot dogs on our Blackstone (that we brought with us) for lunch and then we unpacked and headed down to the boat to the best day we have ever had on the lake. It was so hot and sunny and we soaked it all up and spent so much time in the water!
Eva and her flag!
A Bald Eagle Sighting!
When we finally came back in, it was after five and we headed home to shower and make dinner on the Blackstone.
We had an awesome dinner out on the deck and played a little trivia. We finally crashed around 11 after this fabulous day.
Saturday
We were up bright and early again. Pidge and I headed to Dunks then we had a leisurely morning waiting for the golf cart parade and for the Fourniers to arrive. The parade was the best yet- we noticed the popular themes for the golf carts this year were: World Cup, Hot Dogs, Ice Cream and all of the Patriotic Goodness.
Once the Fourniers arrived, they quickly unloaded and we all headed down to the boat. It was another great day- not as hot and rather cloudy but we still got in the water for a bit. It was such a relaxing and wonderful day!
We headed back home after five to change up and make dinner- we enjoyed our traditional lobster dinner and wonderful sides then spent so much time out on the deck. We played some trivia and then enjoyed the fireworks around us. Such a great time!
We crashed earlier this night. Once we were in bed, Diana wanted to chat and get my advice so I chatted with her before falling asleep. I missed her terribly this weekend but she stayed busy working and having some fun with friends. We also missed Caden and Alexis. Again- made me sad but we are moving into this next phase of life whether I like it or not!
Sunday
We were up bright and early and packed up the Jeep. We hugged Laurel and Tom goodbye and thanked them for such an amazing weekend then we headed home. We made a pit stop for a few things then got home to unpack and get the laundry going.
It was great to catch up with Diana. She and I took a quick drive to listen to music and grab teas.
Then we all headed to Sylvie's 3rd Birthday Party! Woohoo! It was K Pop Demon Hunters themed- so fun!
I had to take Diana to work so couldn't stay for cake and presents. Boo. I had a blast while I was there though. They did such a great job celebrating this beautiful girl!
Once home, Diana headed to work and I caught up on blogging, did meal planning and grocery ordering and got the girls all organized for Triple Threat Camp which starts today! Woohoo!
Happy 250th Birthday America and Happy Birthday Sylvie Girl! Also...a very Happy Heavenly Birthday to Grammy :)
It was a patriotic and wonderful weekend with the greatest peeps! What were you all up to?
