No. 1. July 4th
Summer was in full swing, and I did my best on July 4th! The day started with cycling around the neighborhood, followed by an afternoon barbecue, and ended with a spectacular fireworks display.
No. 2. My birthday
My birthday is on the 5th, so here we are celebrating for 48 hours! This year, I wanted to spend a calm day working in the yard, swimming, and playing pickleball.
No. 3. Dinner in the backyard
In addition to all the celebrations this week, we also hosted a small dinner party in our backyard. Some of my close friends from college were in town, so I took the opportunity to invite them all to a summer get-together. Sid had lights in the trees all afternoon, but a storm started just before the event. We hurriedly brought everything indoors until the clouds cleared and the sun shone again. We set everything up again and ended up having a dreamy night under the trees. I planned the party and set the table, but left the cooking to the professionals and asked Chef Ortega to cater the dinner. It was delicious.
No. 4. Maggie & Company Tent Sale
Tent sale is still going on Maggie & Company! Lots of great products at bargain prices –
No. 5. Summary of Mallorca
I’m still daydreaming about my recent trip to Mallorca. We shared our trip recap here and I’m already dreaming of going again soon.
No.6. Summer pouch
I think one of the best ways to refresh your home this season is to update your front door. Here’s a roundup of some of our favorite looks.
No. 7. Cid’s favorite hobby
Anyone who knows Syd knows that his love of cycling runs deep. This week he presents essential cycling gear. Please pay attention!
