Fun, Food, and Fantasty on the Fourth

Some people spend their Independence Day afternoons at a backyard cookout, drinking beer, and watching fireworks. We were not those people this year. Instead husband and I went with our friends to a local amusement park. I hadn't been there in 8 years, and my husband in 14 years. It's ridiculous we let so much time go by considering how cheap and close by ... and FUN it is. We plan on going back in a few weeks!

Note to self -- I'm not fit to ride certain rides that make you spin and fly at vertical angles.

And yes, I wore a short dress to the park! I literally don't own a single pair of shorts or capris, so dress it is. But my latest trick is to put spandex shorts under which not only helps modesty, but also comfort walking around.

The Fourth of July also marked the 8 year anniversary of me meeting my would-be hubs, so the date always holds a special place in my heart. <3
