Happy 4th of July! I hope you’ll be celebrating our country’s Independence Day in style. If you don’t already have plans, here are my top 10 fun and fashionable activities to do this holiday weekend:
- Take a family photo! You can easily color coordinate outfits by wearing white on top and denim on the bottom. Use this photo for your 2014 holiday card. Always a nifty idea for creating lasting memories.
- Create and wear personalized t-shirts for your family get-together. I used the website Zazzle to create ours. You can also create life-size stand-up photos of the matriarch and patriarch of the party. Need help creating something fun and customized to your family? Just Ask!
- Organize tournaments such as tennis, bocce or croquet either on the lawn or on clay. For extra fun, have an award ceremony at the end of your get-together with trophies for the winners.
- Lip-synch or karaoke with your friends and family to a popular tune. I’m going to try lip-synching, “Fancy” by Iggy Azalea. Stay tuned and watch on YouTube. Ha!
- It’s a great time to try a new recipe. Barbeque! Picnic! Pig out! Now, that’s a no-brainer. ;)
- Hang out at the beach, pool or lake. Need unique game ideas for the water? Just Ask!
- Learn something new. Paddle boarding is on my to-do list this summer. Splash!
- Attend a baseball game and cheer on your team. “Take me out to the ball game…”
- Watch the fireworks. Don’t forget to bring bug spray! Slap!
- Save leftovers for the entire weekend so you don’t have to cook. Indulge!
Happy Family Fun!
