We spent the Fourth of July with our wonderful friends, Tony and Julie-Ann.

Tony and I have been great friends since high school, and Julie-Ann is someone I would be friends with even if she hadn’t married my great friend.

They are wonderful hosts and it was a perfect day!

They had everything we needed for a fabulous 4th, including…

A pink swing for Tom…

And yummy patriotic strawberries for me!

(All for me.)

It was beyond awesome!

Here’s what the rest of our holiday looked like…

Tom with *two* cute girls. He’s a playa.

Talking to a baby girl and telling her she’s sweet.

Alice hanging out with Tony’s mom.

Jumping!

Monkey.

Alice with Tony’s dad.

Tony’s dad with all the pretty ladies!

Tony, me and Alice and Kev!

Little Miss Firecracker!

It was a really great day and I’m so happy we were able to spend the holiday with them — especially because there was homemade ice cream involved.

Hope you guys had a wonderful holiday, too!

LOVE!
