July will ALWAYS be my favorite month of the year and here is why.

Fourth of July 

the cutest little neighborhood parade on the planet.  Porter loved all the trucks, cars and mostly candy. 

pinterest success. 

We had a BBQ and made people blow up a watermelon (see below pic.)

Probably my favorite thing ever.  Blowing up stuff because this is 'merica. 

Before we played Jimmy Fallon's Egg Roulette game. 

After: their hair was so luscious. 

Disregard my grumpy face.  It was actually really fun haha.

Probably my favorite part of the day was after fireworks and the kids were asleep.  We played Flip Cup, Pennies and a couple other random games underneath these lights.  Friends, Food, Family and Exploding Watermelons.  Thats my kind of Fourth. 

Free slurpee Day

My Birthday ( you are welcome universe) 

You get to run around in your swimsuit and no one cares. 

Pioneer Day and more fireworks.

Porters Birthday- where we ate donuts and swam all day long. 🐳🐟🐳

On top of all the normal reasons July is my favorite month, here are some more.
