Happy Fourth!! I love this day of the year. I love to celebrate the birth of our country and I love a day that starts with all things red + white + blue and ends with fireworks. don't you?  When I was a little girl we spent many July 4 evenings watching the fireworks at Disney World with my grandparents, and even though the fireworks here in town are not as good, they instantly take me back to those amazing hot July nights. I am a girl who loves a fireworks show! 🎆
We have a different day planned this year and, although I think I was really sad at first, I am really excited about it now.  We are starting the day with breakfast as a family and then a few of us are making camp at the end of our driveway for the absolutely adorable neighborhood parade.  In years past we have watched the parade at the Marietta Square but this year this parade sounds perfect and you can't be the free parking and the yummy eats.   My cute assistant is coming over and we have made plans for iced coffees + donuts while taking in all the cute kids!

We are relaxing with some BBQ sandwiches + fixings and then heading to watch the fireworks with a fun charcuterie tray + some fun sips.  I have gathered up some fun red, white, and blue for the tray and I plan to pack some fun blue and white plates to enjoy it.  I have been very inspired lately with fun colorful cheese trays and I am so excited to try out my new obsession tonight.  ❤💙

I hope your day is amazing.  Happy Birthday America!
