This year was very different from last year's 4th of July. Instead of going to a BBQ, we spent the weekend doing stuff for the house. On Friday, the weather on the East Coast was not great. It was really hot and humid with a bunch of random downpours and storms. We spent the day running errands (Home Depot and Target) and Chris steam cleaned the carpets while I took Noah back to our apartment for his nap. Even though we didn't have any big plans, we made sure to dress for the holiday ;)

^^^ Chris really wanted a hot dog on July 4th... I guess Target had to do this year ;)
^^^ taking silly selfies in the car while Chris ran into Home Depot
^^^ we did manage to take a family walk around our new neighborhood :)
On Saturday, we finally got our huge delivery from Ikea... 20 boxes! I put together our couch and shoe rack while Chris and my dad put the entertainment center together. On Sunday, Chris and his dad put together 3 dressers and the wardrobe. All we have left now are 2 bedside tables :) My parents came to help on Saturday and Chris' parents on Sunday. While we were busy workers all day, we made sure to take a break to eat dinner out on our deck :)
I was looking back at pictures from last 4th of July, and I can't get over how much Noah's changed! Last year he was a baby and this year he is a little boy... but with the same smile!
Those comparison photos are amazing! I love that his facial expression is the same! Sounds like you guys had a great 4th despite the bad weather and I love your matching attire!
