One thing that I can say Tommy and I have been very good at lately, despite all the craziness of life, is taking time to do date nights or date days. This past Saturday night I treated Tommy to see his favorite band, 311, perform at Merriweather Post Pavilion. It was a great night all around!

Happy Friday! Who else is so glad it’s the weekend? I think today’s frugal find will get most of you in the weekend spirit. 🙂
My family and I will be heading to Maine on Monday to spend some quality time with Tommy’s family, so I’ll be taking the week of blogging. Be sure to check out IG stories for “of-the-moment-moments”! Have a good one.

A Rainy 4th, But With Some Dry Spots!
Happy Hump Day everyone! Hope your Tuesday was a good one. As you may have seen from IG stories, I had a day-long work trip to NYC. I was finally in bed by 12:15am today – so I’m a little tired. 😉
I wanted to share some photos of how we spent the 4th of July last week. While it was rainy for the most part, we were fortunate to get about a 2-hour window of sunshine, which was awesome since we celebrated America’s Independence at a friend’s BBQ and pool party.

Frugal Friday – 14
Hi friends! Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th. We had a good time at a friend’s BBQ and pool party. Despite the scattered thunderstorms, we were able to squeeze in some solid pool time and the kiddos were utterly exhausted – they both went to bed super early. (So did their parents!)

Today’s Frugal Friday post is pretty simple. Hit your favorite store (Target, Michael’s, a grocery store) and stock up on all the leftover 4th of July goodies for next year!
