Happy 4th of July weekend! Yet another holiday coming and going during the pandemic... but we have no control over that. All we can do is celebrate America the best ways we know how this weekend (while being socially distanced from large groups and as safe as possible)!
It has been a tough first half of 2020 in the US, and not just because of COVID-19. There has been political turmoil for the election year, the horrific murder of George Floyd and the deserved outrage that followed, unemployment levels skyrocketing nationwide (I guess that one is due to COVID)... my point is things haven't been easy this year for a lot of reasons. There's still so much work for all of us to do going forward into the second half of the year! But with all that said, on this 4th of July weekend I am still so proud to be an American. We still have so many freedoms and rights here in this country that so many people in oppressive nations around the world would give their lives to have, and I don't ever want to take that for granted.
I saw this mural when I was in Columbia, SC a few weeks ago, and I thought I would save the photo to post for this weekend. May God Bless America! 🇺🇸

I am off bright and early this morning for a fun girls' trip with my friend Mercedes- it'll also be my very first time staying in an AirBnb so I'm extra excited! I can't wait to recap our weekend once I'm back. We spent last 4th of July together as well and it's crazy to think how different things are this year. Last year on the 4th we went to a crowded public event in the morning, and a movie in the afternoon... two things not an option right now thanks to COVID.

What a cute mural! I agree, despite all of the terrible things going on in our country, I am still very proud to be an American. What a year! There was soooo many good sales over the weekend.
