Independance Day!

Happy Birthday to our Country!
What a wonderful weekend we had here on the Jersey Shore this weekend. I have to say the best part about where we live is that in less than 5 minutes we can be sitting on the beach and that is exactly what we did. Saturday was an amazing day and the boys has a blast.
Sunday was a bit of a wash as it rained most of the day but we were very fortunate to be able to see the Kaboom Fireworks in Red Bank with our favorite family The Lombardos.
We grab a quick bite to eat before heading back to the Building that we were going to watch the fireworks from . This was our view.

we finished off the weekend with a family BBQ and the kids had a blast. They were water rats and had to be begged to come out of the pool to watch the fireworks. The big hit of the BBQ was the Cupcakes in a jar that the boys and I made and the apple pie in a jar (forgot to take pictures of that and must do a tutorial on that one)



Also made my Black Bean and Corn Salad. MMMM! All while Skyping with Daddy! (he is in Kuwait working)
 
Well we are off to Dallas (me for business) and Austin (kids to stay with my SIL and their cousins).
Will take lots of pics and let you know how the trip is.
Toodles!
