Happy Independence Day!
In honor of Matt's favorite day of the year* our country's birthday, I'm taking the weekend off from blogging. In fact, I'm going to try not to look at my computer all weekend! Our plans include hanging with our best buds & their babe, watching fireworks, hiking, running, eating yummy summer treats & enjoying a long, restful weekend. What are you doing for the Fourth?
*In all seriousness, Matt loves the Fourth of July, & considers it sacrilegious to celebrate it anywhere other than Glen Ellyn, Illinois. (I have never been to a town that gets more into this holiday. The day is chocked full of parties, parades & fireworks. It's a blast!). Sadly, we won't be in Chicagoland this weekend, so we're just going to have fun with fireworks down in North Carolina. I assured him he'll survive. He's not convinced....

Dont worry Matt, every 4th of July I sink into a semi depressed state because my best friend who equally LOVES the 4th lives in Ft. Lauderdale and it just isn't the same. Growing up in small town Beecher, the 4th was the biggest day of the year: parade, BBQs, carnival, and fireworks. It was a little bit of heaven on earth! We would decorate our mopeds, break out the matching patriotic outfits and soak up the patriotism. Sadly I dont live in Beecher anymore, but I am bound and determined to let Grace and the rest of the future Millers experience that!
