I can't even believe it is July already...J-U-L-Y.
Half way through the year. Excuse me while I process this for a quick moment....
Okay, I decided. Time-can you please slow down just a bit?
In January, I traveled with Billy's family to Snowshoe, WV for a ski trip...
In March, we went on vacation to Houston, TX to visit our bff's Steph and Beau (including Shay, Drew, and Kristen too!) and it was our first time at a (real) rodeo!
In April, I traveled to Nashville, TN for my girlfriends Bachelorette party, got my very own pair of cowboy boots, and came back home even more obsessed with country/live music than I was before....
In May, we went on vacation to Naples, FL for my birthday! We soaked up the sun, made sure to spend extra time on the beach / getting tan at the pool, and dined at our favorite restaurants....
However, it's a catch 22 because at the same time, I want to soak up as much of this summer as possible.
Last night I realized I haven't even put anything together for our 4th of July plans and typically I've already planned the menu by now, and have everything shopped for just waiting to be cooked/baked.
Big fat fail.
Are YOU ready for the 4th of July? How are you celebrating this year?
Leave me some of your favorite holiday dishes in the comments!
Clearly I'm craving holiday foods already and it's only Tuesday...who's with me?
{Don't forget to enter my Crystal Light gift card giveaway and also my Malibu giveaway!}
And just like that I want to repeat my trip to Snowshoe from February, go back to the beach and get my butt back to Nashville immediately!

ReplyDeleteYou're trips always look like so much fun! I can't believe it's July already and the 4th is 2 days away. Where is this summer/year going!?!
ReplyDeleteSo many vacations, I'm jealous! I'm FINALLY getting out of town tomorrow for the 4th and I'm so excited!
ReplyDeleteNot too shabby of a 2013 lady! I think I may have to go with my pinterest hit from last wear and make fruit kabobs (but adding on some brownie bites this year!)
ReplyDeleteMichael and I were saying on our little anniversary trip that we want to start doing more trips throughout the year. You have me inspired and will be to blame when I book trips each month. hehe Hope you have a great rest of the week pretty friend.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about how fast this year is going by! It's so crazy! it seems like as the years pass by, they go faster and faster. I'm so excited for the 4th though! One of my sorority sisters is having a pool party/BBQ so that should be really fun. And then my boy and I will be watching the infamous DC fireworks :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are having a great year so far traveling around the US and having lots of fun!! I can't believe how fast the year has gone by! We are officially 1/2 way done with 2014! My goodness!!
ReplyDeleteLove the 4th! This year I'm going to a huge Texas affair with lots of fireworks and I can't wait! :)
