Our fourth of July was probably the same as yours.
We BBQ'd, played games, and watched fireworks with our best friends and our dogs.
Normally, holidays aren't this eventful for us since we live away from family.
Sometimes I like that, but after two and a half years, it gets a little lonely.
All your friends are with their families while we're at Denny's feeling a little forgotten, maybe.
I think we've finally lived here long enough to have made some really good friends.
Friends that we saw just last night and will see again tomorrow and somehow ended up with tonight.
It's refreshing, really. And about darn time!
you can read about my struggle with holidays here.
We like your subtle nod towards teh 4th July celebrations!
ReplyDeleteYour cardi looks so comfortable and soft.

That's great that you guys have found people to hang out with! I know I've struggled with some holidays as well living away from family. Sometimes we have time to go home for the bigger holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas), but not for the little ones, especially with my husband's work schedule. Yesterday, he was working and I ended up at a parade by myself, which was not really worth the one shoulder sunburn that I got, haha. Oh well. I did manage to spend Memorial Day with friends, though, and that was refreshing!
ReplyDeleteHeading to read those entries now... we're away from family now and my husband is a resident at the hospital and has worked literally EVERY holiday this year. I've spent New year's Eve, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, and the 4th of July alone with my dog :( It's tough being in a new area without family and I hope that soon I will have great friends to celebrate the holidays with, like you:)
ReplyDeletegreat outfit!

Redd-ish shoes, blue sweater and white shirt, very patriotic! I was with my family on Canada day and it was lovely to celebrate together. After reading your post I realized I shouldn't take that time for granted.

ReplyDeleteWe actually didn't do any of the normal stuff, our holidays are often not the usual since the hubs is also usually working them and often until late at night. :( So I feel ya, so glad you got to be with your hubby on this one though!
