Independence Day has always been a favorite for Riley and I. Three years ago, we had our first kiss on the Fourth so it's always been a fun day to remember.
Usually, back home, we would have attended my family reunion, lit off fireworks with Riley's fam, gone to the rodeo, and watched fireworks with friends. But since it has just been the two of us for the past two years, we have had the chance to make a few of our own new traditions.
This year we spent a good portion of the day at the pool. The weather was perfect and it seems like floating in the water is one of the only things that takes some pressure off these child bearing hips of mine!
After the pool, we came home and had dinner. Riley grilled some delicious steaks and I got in touch with my inner homemaker to work on dessert.
Then, we headed out for fireworks on the beach! We stopped and tried a new ice cream place in town called Gracie and the Dudes. It was super yummy, and I don't know why it took us so long to stop in. But we will definitely be back for more!
It was a great day and we are so excited to celebrate with our little guy next year! 9 weeks to our due date!
Xoxo
