Well, it's Monday after 4th of July weekend and it may as well be January 2nd. You know, the festivities are over and the reality of everyday life hits you in the head like a boomerang and knocks you down on your knees where you sit and wonder, what in the world just happened.
I guess things weren't that dramatic, but who doesn't like to exaggerate?:)
4th of July here was very fun though. The weather couldn't have been more beautiful and our lake was SWARMING with boats full of vacationers. The main street of our town was lined up with lawn chairs from early morning. People were that eager to call a spot for the parade and the fireworks in the evening.
We spent most of our day hanging out on the lawn with our friends and some semi-naked people.
In the evening we went over to our friends J and Kirby's house for a traditional celebratory dinner. Kirby is a great cook and she is also from Texas, which explains her obsession with wrapping everything and their aunt in bacon. Delish!
Annika's sleeping schedule is completely off this summer, so by the time we got her home, in bath and her PJs, the fireworks started and we just let her stay up and watch those from our pier. She was in awe and things got even better for this girl when someone showed up with a huge bag of cotton candy. This iPhone picture is the only picture we took from the fireworks show.
Hope you had a great day celebrating America's birthday. Cheers.
Lena, the photos are fabulous!

DeleteМне в Инстаграме показалось, что салат, из которого Анника хотела попробовать сыр - греческий, но здесь, на более крупных фотках видно, что то, что я приняла за маслины - еживика. Рецепт?! Было же вкусно?)
ReplyDeleteОй, Оксанчик, ужас как вкусно! и так просто! Шпинат, ягоды, козий сыр, орешки какие-нибудь и все это заправляется малиновым бальзамическим соусом)) Ягоды можно любые вообще, у меня была цель сделать красно-бело-голубой салат)
DeleteМм, и по описанию вкусно звучит)))
