Happy 4th of July week! This past weekend was full of errands and DIY projects at home – we really got A LOT done! =)
This upcoming Independence Day weekend, we’ll be continuing our home projects and spending time with family and friends at the lake; watching fireworks and grilling out! Since we have Thursday – Monday off, we’ll use the first two days for projects and then after that we’ll “relax & unwind.” It’s been a busy season and since I manage the finances for my team at work, quarter close can be stressful. Thankfully, the 4th of July always occurs after quarter close and I can take the time to relax.
My goal this week is to finish Monday-Wednesday strong and make sure to find the time to relax this long weekend! I hope you are able to relax & unwind as well!
What about you…do you have any fun plans for the 4th? =)

Your plans for the 4th sound amazing…the lake?! I would love to spend some time on the lake. We will be at the pool with some friends and their kiddos and then off to see fireworks. And my Hubby’s birthday is this week as well, so we will be celebrating him! Hope you have a great holiday weekend ahead!

We always fill the 4th will a parade, parties with friends, a family cookout and end with fireworks! It’s a busy fun-filled day. The long weekend to spend together is always a favorite.

It’s the opposite here at work for me. We’ve been so slow this month so this week will drag–especially since we head to vacation for a week Friday morning!!!

We will be going to a friend’s house to bbq, drink beer & hang in the pool all day. Because it’s a 110 degrees, I am going to try my HARDEST not to burn. That is pending I can get in the shade & I reapply sunscreen about four times but we can do this! Happy fourth of July weekend to you! My vacation for about a week started….a few hours ago!! 😉 xx
