Happy 4th!

Happy Independence Day, folks! I hope you have fun plans made for your celebration today. I'm staying home with the family today and we're having a little cookout. If the rain holds off I would like to eat outside but these grey clouds do not bode well. And what is 4th of July without fireworks? While we won't personally be setting any off, I can be confident in saying at least two people around here will be setting them off.

Have fun celebrating America's birthday!

What do you have planned for the celebrations?

Weekend Wrap-Up: Father's Day

Recipe: here

This past weekend we celebrated Father's Day (I saw some lovely blog posts yesterday!) Considering the age and ability of both my brother and I, we decided to do a bit more than draw dad a picture and simply wish him a nice day. We bought him a DVD that he wanted, and humorous card (that may or may not have been completely accurate in describing ourselves to him) and on top of that made him probably the best lunch ever. Seriously...how did this guy get so lucky?

But Father's Day came and passed and now it's back to work, right? And in the world of retail we are on to our next big adventure: 4th of July! Get that shopping done!

How was your weekend? How did you celebrate Father's Day?
