After a long fun weekend with family & friends it was definitely hard to get back into the normal Monday routine. I will say that I was happy to have Group Power first thing this morning to get a good sweat in. It’s always a great start to my Monday.

Here is a quick Photo Recap of our fun filled 4th Of July weekend:

Friday was a beach morning for Marc, Ava and I. This girl loves to be at the beach and run wild.

Around 3pm we headed to Todd’s Point for my friend Lindsay’s birthday beach party. It’s really impossible to get Ava to cooperate for the camera. If you have any tips, please share!

Ava once again swam in the water and played in the sand.

She ran around until she had no energy left!

Lets just say it was an early bed time for Ava.

Saturday was a cloudy day and a slow start in our house. We all slept until 7am which is a record. We never sleep that late, but I’ll take it.

We treated ourselves to some Dunkin Iced Coffees, walked Cooper and did some stuff around the house.

Marc did a lot of cooking Saturday and we BBQ’d at our house with our family for dinner. Ribs were on the menu and I’m so happy they were because they were so delicious.

Sunday we went for a long walk with Cooper again and then headed to Todd’s point for one last weekend beach trip. The weather was perfect and I loved being outside and playing in the water with Ava.

Kids really make the beach a lot more fun.

All in all we had a fun time being outside and enjoying extra time together with family & friends!

What did you do for the 4th?

Did you BBQ, if so what was your favorite food?
