   Happy 4th of July! We’re heading over to my aunt’s house for a cookout and fireworks. We were almost rained out but the party is back on! Yay 🙂

   Happy 4th! I’m gonna go play some tennis with the dad and have some delicious BBQ leftovers- and perhaps go out for ice cream since it’s expected to be almost 100 degrees!

   I think we may hit up the park and play some soccer which involves just kicking the ball and making the kids go get them lol

   Happy 4th! So wish I could be poolin’ it up a few notches, but… I do leave for Florida on Monday, so that’s probably no big dea 😉 Delayed gratification! Instead we’ll be eating amazing food (GF doughballs? vegan lassis? mmm) and heading to a fun cookout. Ahh… Love summer holidays!

   I think I’m watching fireworks off the top of the Clarendon Hotel in Phoenix, it should be a good show. I’m with you on hitting the pool too, this humidity isn’t fun 🙁

    Kind of a crappy day (weather-wise) here in Maryland, so I’m just sitting on the couch, enjoying my book and new issue of Real Simple! Ahh, independence : )

    Is that baby Viesa??? I can’t stand that fluffy cuteness. How is it that puppies make me so happy and hurt my heart at the same time?

    Have a great 4th!

    I’m an American abroad in China- I spent my 4th of July evening with friends from the UK (who were excited to celebrate their country losing territory) at a popular Beijing bar called Propaganda. It was my first time spending the fourth with non-Americans…but it was definitely fun and an Independence day i won’t forget! Happy fourth of July!

    I went for a run in the sun this morning, then stocked up on (non) essentials at Target. Now I’m going to sneak into the pool next door and maybe go to some bbqs this evening. Have a Happy 4th! And thank you to the Pilot for everything that he sacrifices for our freedom 🙂

    Happy 4th of July Gina! I hope you and Tom have a great one!

    Your photo of the pool makes me wish we had a membership somewhere. Sadly, there will be no swimming for me today, just grilling out and relaxing.

    xoxo

    Happy 4th! We celebrated at the pool yesterday with lots of grilled goodness and time with family. We are going to another pool party/cookout tonight, but it is raining here right now. Hopefully it will clear up before we leave! I’m headed off to do my Insanity Max Interval workout now 🙂

    We’re just hanging out with our pups and going to the park! Glad you’re having a great 4th! And Epcot would be so fun to be at for the 4th – cool that you got to do that.

    The feeling of sheer PANIC that can set in when you think you oversleep for something…I literally get the shakes as my adrenaline kicks in and my blood pressure skyrockets. Good thing it’s all tomorrow for you 🙂

    Thanks to the Pilot for his service to our country on this 4th of July!

    Hope you two have a great day 🙂

    I HATE when that happens in the morning! One time I legit got ENTIRELY ready for work, then realized that I still had 3 hours before I had to be up -_-

    Happy 4th of July to you, the pilot and your baby on the way. Hope all is well.

    We are just chillin’ at home. We have the luxury of being able to see fireworks from our house. In November, we got to see the firework and light show at Epcot, too. Spectacular!

    We are relaxing by the pool, grilling out and watching fireworks! I’m making the vegan burgers and kale you made plus some coleslaw, hotdogs, tots, baked onionrings, watermelon & pineapple, & cupcakes with flags. Whew. Have a great 4th. Thanks to Tom & the military!

    I ran a 1-mile race this morning for the 4th and then the hubby and I got in some great pool time. I made a festive 4th of July dessert and now we are spending quality time relaxing before we go to the in-laws for a bbq. 🙂

    Happy 4th of July! Hope you’re enjoying it!

    It’s just a normal ol’ day here in Canada, so I spent it at work! But I did enjoy a BBQed dinner out on the patio with my parents!
