4th of July fun!

I hope everyone had a fabulous 4th of July! All of these pictures speak for themselves... except for a few!



Yep... this would be it! Here's the story... My husband and I were at Costco together picking out fruit for our 4th of July dinner with family. I am clueless about picking out fruit, so I asked a Lady who seemed very into the whole picking process. She led me to the right watermelon, then told me not to keep it in the hot car. "Go straight home." Tyler was poking fun at me (or her, really) when I told him we needed to get the melon home. I was putting the cart away while he was loading the final items into the car. I couldn't stop laughing. This is where I found the watermelon! He wanted to make sure it was well taken care of! I must say... she knew what she was doing. The watermelon was delicious!

So I need to know the tips on how to pick out a good watermelon...I never get a good one. Maybe the key is to buckle it in the seatbelt.:) Looks like you had a great time.
