sunday’s take + 4th of july

Made a fun little dessert board for the 4th. The best part was my nieces helped me put it together. ◡̈

 

On the 4th, Raymond and I finally had time to put up the lights over our deck. I love checking things off the to-do list, especially when they look this cute! Added my new rug that was a Prime Day steal.

 

Just a little mirror selfie in one of my favorite spots.

 

Ella girl loves swimming. Sadly, Levi tore his ACL so summer swims have been cut short this year. I know she already misses it.

 

For Levi’s ACL surgery, I had to take him to Tupelo which meant I got to stay with my friend Margaret and eat at this delish local cantina.

 

And… the fun part. The next six weeks of recovery are already rough on all of us. Mostly just because of all the restrictions. He can’t overdo it or we will be right back where we started. Restrictions for him = restrictions for all of us.

I am a 30-something southern gal who loves to document life in the form of photos and wordy sentences. My husband and I have two boys and two dogs that keep us quite busy considering the boys are only 18 months apart! I created this space years ago as a visual scrapbook for me to look back on and share things I love. Welcome to my little space of the internet. I'm happy you are here!
