Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy!

I love summer time, I have wonderful memories of summers spent playing in the backyard with my siblings, going camping, family reunions, the hometown parade how I love it all!

I am excited for Independence Day this year. We are having a Pool/BBQ party at my house to celebrate with family. We started a tradition this year at our family Christmas party, one word: Pinata!!!! Lilly and I picked out a pinata today and fun things to fill it with, Mike decided that it was A LOT of work to make our own this time around so we forked out the $10.00 and bought one :) Although, I made Mike keep the snowman pinata he made for Christmas, I am using it as a decoration for the years to come, it is awesome.
Last weekend we purchased a swimming pool. We've been using it all week in the 100 degree weather, it's been a nice way to cool down. The water was REALLY cold when we first filled it, but Mike figured out how to hook up our kitchen tap to the hose and we added hot water to the mix and it's much nicer now.

I bought this blow up dragon, it is the silliest thing! Lilly rides on it in the pool and also on land :) When Lilly saw it the first thing she did was point at the horns and say "Look at it's horns, they are so silly!"

I hope everyone has a wonderful 4th of July!
