Fourth of July Deliciousness

Daily Delish

I’m alive!

You guys know me, when family and friends are a plenty, blogging tends to take a backseat. But I’m back to share some of the fun!

This weekend was spent at numerous family parties, eating delicious foods and snackage.

The Mister and I dressed in our patriotic best.

After taking in the fireworks, a few of us crashed my parents house (and pantry) and made some s’mores on the grill. Simply wrap an uncooked s’more in foil and place on the grill for about 5 minutes.

Isn’t patriotism delicious?

What was the most delicious thing you ate this weekend?

Thankful Thursday – Patriotism and Neon Trees

Thankful

Happy Thursday, everyone!

I apologize for my lack of posting yesterday. The Mister and I took the day off to spend some much-needed time together and I wasn’t about to waste even ONE SECOND on the computer!

The morning was spent going on a walk for a tasty smoothie, followed by Eclipse and THE BODIES exhibit. We then headed over to one of my favorite restaurants and capped the evening off with Neon Trees. What.a.day. It actually felt like a summer COLLEGE day. Ya know, before we had jobs, obligations and deadlines. Oh how I long for those days. College and high school students – HANG ON TO THEM! seriously.

Alright, enough whining. Let’s think about the moments this week for which we’re thankful. I’ll start…

I’m thankful for:

My health

Beautiful weather and lowered humidity

Simple dinners that allow me to spend more time playing outside

Neon Trees, for letting me ROCK OUT ;)

My friends, and that the Mister and I are so busy with all our fun, upcoming plans with them

The upcoming long weekend with multiple cookouts and spending time with family

Fresh, in-season fruit – nothing beats it ;)

America – and the freedoms it provides – can you tell I’m feeling patriotic?

What are YOU thankful for this week?

When you’re having this much fun. These past few days off have been incredible and so needed. But now it’s time to hit the ground running and get serious again about work.

But a few minutes of reliving this weekend’s fun won’t kill me…

Saturday was spent at Chagrin Falls. Lots of great eating at Joey’s ;)

There was also some ice cream, naturally — although somehow that didn’t make it onto my camera ;)

And falls watching…

The bachelorette party brought good times with great friends at Indian Lake…

Boating, sunning (don’t worry, I wore LOTS of sunscreen – whilst getting made fun of by all my friends – but I showed them, I was the only one who didn’t burn ;) ), laughing and dancing (thank goodness none of the dancing photos made it on my camera)

So fun!
