Fabulous 4th
I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe 4th of July.
Our 4th was fun filled and our marvelous out of town guests only added to the entire weekend’s awesomeness. On Thursday night, my brother and his girlfriend arrived from Chicago and on Friday, my sister, brother-in-law and Fuzzworth also checked in from New York. . If we had just added a few more heads, the whole family would have been here! They all make my heart so happy and it seems like time certainly goes by too quickly whenever we are together.
Pinky, Chris and I were all excited to share our little neck of the woods with everyone, so we made sure to take them by the majority of the cool spots in our town and even managed to take a picture or two.
On Saturday, we did some light shopping and mingling in New Hampshire and Maine. The small area that we saw was absolutely beautiful and I have a feeling we will be heading back there soon to take in more of the amazing scenery.
During the day on Sunday, we checked out some of the more historical sites in our vicinity before heading to the harbor (which was beautifully lit up) with friends to watch a remarkable fireworks display.
Monday became our day of rest (kind of) and the beach was the place to be. With temperatures soaring the past several days, it felt so nice to put our feet in the water and cool off. There were plenty of hermit crabs to be tortured entertain us as well.
(No crabs were hurt in the taking of these pictures.)
In the evening, our grill got in a nice work out. We had a great dinner featuring steak and lobster, the perfect surf and turf combo.
And judging by the photo below, I believe that the food was enjoyed by all (or everyone was just that ravenous by the time the food was ready.) I’m so glad that we were able to spend some quality time together and hopefully it won’t be too long before we can all hang out again!
