We were home for the first time on the 4th ever in my whole life. It was different but Scott and I were determined to make it memorable. Goodness I wish I took pictures of all of the food we ate that day - it sure was amazing!
We started the evening before when Anna finished her last summer college class {Boston College}. She absolutely loved it so much!!! She finished her last lecture on Friday afternoon in her room and I had a sign in the hallway when she left the room that said, "Congratulation! You finished your first college class!" and it took my breath away. I know it's not really like going to college but gosh that is coming so fast!
While she was in her last class I whipped up a cake {and decided to decorate it for the 4th, since the 4th was the next day}
On the 4th I decided that we'd get out all of those summertime treats machines that we just don't pull out enough - like the snow cone machine!!! Of course when Scott ran to the store for me there wasn't any of that sugary liquid you pour over the snow cone, so I cooked one up - easy! And so much more yummy!
She was pretty excited since it had been years since we had this out!
Here she is back in when we first got it... (2012)
Back to 2020
They really are pretty summertime treats
Why not go all out?!
Yes, we got out our ice cream maker too! Now that are not going to forget about - goodbye store ice cream - please if you love ice cream, treat yourself to this machine, trust me!
Since then we've made chocolate too - be still my heart, so so good!
I also want to remember
watching Hamilton
playing Monopoly
swinging on the porch
the most amazing dinner
