Our fourth of July started out pretty slow. We decided to just skip out on the crowds this year. I wasn't feeling very well and Taylor and I had a ton of homework. Finals week is next week... So we laid low in the morning, read books, did a little grocery shopping, snuggled. Then at noon Taylor and I decided to go out for some lunch. Harper was not a huge fan of that idea. After the complete and total madness we agreed to never take Harper to a nice restaurant again. It was a total nightmare. I think we will save the nice places for date night from now on. After a very successful bath and nap time, we went outside for some fireworks. We originally planned to drive to the giant firework show. Since Harper and me and Taylor were all a little grumpy we decided to stay home and see what was going down in our neighbor hood. Our neighbor gave us a sparkler that Harper LOVED. Then we walked around, popped poppers, and watched street fireworks. Harper loved every single second of it. Our day ended so well. I am so grateful for these two perfect humans in my life. Taylor has become the best dad in the world. I don't know what I would do with out them. Tooooo blessed. And thank you to the men and women who knew the value in having a voice and fought to makes this country what it is today! P.S. thanks for the cute flag romper grandma penny, Harper was so cute and comfy!
Welcome to my tiny corner of the internet. Burning candles, chocolate ice cream, fresh flowers, cozy blankets, open windows, sunday drives, and homemade lemonade make me a happy girl.
