Another week, another collection of things that make me oh so happy.  If you read the last 2 posts, you are aware that I love the fourth and I celebrated like a champ.  So many summery things to be grateful for this past week.

1.  Fireworks – Yep, everyone else had better pictures than me, but I actually watched them this year and didn’t pull out my iphone4 (gasp, I haven’t upgraded yet) until we were in the car beating the rush – that’s when I got this professional picture.
2.  Mimosas in Mason Jars – I think I’ve talked about these enough… but damn.
3.  Date night in Stillwater, MN.  Love this view of the St. Croix River.
4 & 5 – Cabin times.  Cloudy days mean big dinners, fishing & Clue.  Sunny days means water balloon fights, turtle catching and swim time.
6.  Some friends were in town that we only see twice a year and we got to see them for a little while.  Usually, it’s shenanigans when they are home (like this time) so it was nice to have a quiet night with them.
7.  Grocery shopping and an actual meal plan for the rest of the week.  Thank you Alexa the Queen of Herbivores (I feel like she always has awesome nick names for people and apparently I’m not good at it) for putting this recipe for Southwestern Egg Rolls on your blog.  We might have overdone it on the spinach, but it was amazing and will definitely join the rotation of meals to make.
Also, I am so excited that people linked up last week.  It’s so much fun for me to see what little things other people find day to day to be grateful for.  Come join the party again.
