I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July and got to celebrate in whichever
means you prefer. We enjoyed a nice quiet 3 day weekend here at home, grilling
out and going to the pool each morning. Our children are not fans of fireworks
which caused bedtime issues each and every night as our neighbors chose to
ignore North Carolina’s law on fireworks. Thankfully it is just once a year.
Last night, after the BBQ’s and before the Fireworks we hosted a dessert party.
I was very inspired by the neighborhood fun of this great party thrown by Buckets
of Grace. Oh wait, don’t click over there yet b/c my party will not live up
to anything she had going on over there. So wait, look through my photos, then
scroll back up and click the link.
