Pool Party Baby, It Was A Cool Party

Hi there. Hope you all had a great day!

Sunday afternoon recap:

Basically my dad's entire side of the family live up in Ohio. Our cousins came down for their summer vacation and it was so exciting to see them! I haven't been to Ohio in about 10 years and I miss them all so much.

We all had a BBQ/ pool party & shared many memories.

**Everyone listen to this song right now to set the mood! :)
Pool Party by The Aquabats

Here are a few of the cousins (I'm third from the left).

All of us kiddies chowing down on the patio and my grandma with a bucket of coleslaw.

Pork tenderloin, teriyaki chicken, baked beans,
coleslaw, fruit salad, unpictured corn on the cob

My poolside B&J Margarita

Today's eats:

Eggs and a granny smith

Tyson chicken w/ side salad & peach

High Energy Trail Mix from The Fresh Market
*it really should be called HIGH(LY ADDICTING) energy mix

Salad w/ raspberry rum & Diet Coke

Up close & personal w/ pickles, strawberries, ham, black olives, honey dijon dressing

I accidentally dumped about 1/2 of this on the ground when I picked it up. Clumsy much?

On Wednesday, I may drive up to Gainesville to visit my boyfriend for the rest of the week. This probably means there will be many trips to Sonny's, TCBY, McDonald's, and Cracker Barrel.

Have a great night! <3 HBB

  4. Hey, thanks for commenting on my blog :) It always makes my day to receive such encouraging words.

    That pool party sounds so fun! I only have 2 cousins, though, and 2 sisters, so it would be way less exciting for my fam lol.

    Have fun visiting your boy - I used to loveeee cracker barrel when we stopped there on road trips. Haven't been in ages, though.

  8. I've never been to a pool party. I don't know anyone in the UK who has a pool for starter. I get a big paddling pool and set it out in my Mum's garden, what do you think? :)
