First things first, the Fourth of July is my ALL TIME FAVORITE holiday!! There's just something about being out on the lake, enjoying time with family and friends, great food, excellent concerts, and FIREWORKS!! Seriously. I love this weekend more than any other time of year!!

Secondly, I just booked my flight for NYC for September 2nd thru the 8th. I'm soooo excited about being back in New York, but I'm even more excited about seeing my Haley!!! I can't believe it's been a whole year! I can't wait to take pictures, hear all about her adventures, and hopefully have a few of our own before we come back home! : ) In the meantime, I'll leave you with some of my favorite photos of me and Haley Bug.
