Every Heart Beats True

for the red, white and blue!

Happy Fourth of July week everyone! I love this holiday. We plan on attending our neighborhood parade, swimming with friends and then off to another family of precious friends and their annual dinner and fireworks extravaganza! We have been blessed with temperatures in the 80's this week and no humidity. (That is unheard of here in July) So, being outside is actually pleasant and adds to the fun of the week. I hope you will be celebrating with those you love!

Here is some red, white and blue inspiration.

The Ice Cream Man

One of my favorite, childhood memories is a frosty treat from the ice cream man. I still get a butterfly in my stomach when I hear the music playing from a street or two away. I really do! So, you can imagine my excitement when my kids came barreling through the front door one afternoon in June announcing the arrival of the ice cream man! After a frantic search for my wallet, we all ran outside and waited for the music to get closer and closer until the truck finally turned down our cul-de-sac. He comes every Tuesday around 5:30pm. Our truck serves actual soft-serve ice cream and it is davoon! I am so glad that     my children get to have a memory like one of my own. Life is so different these days from when I was small and it is such a comfort to know that there are some things that never change. 

Our sweet little neighbor!

He really enjoys his cones!

Here Sport and I are deciding what to get - I look mad with my hand on my hip.

I love Sport holding his hands behind his back in anticipation. 

Sweet Pea is ready to order - they are so patient and let the little kids go first.
