Weekend Wrap Up: 4th of July Edition

Last week was the first time I was able to start getting around post surgery. It was nice to get out of the house. I had a follow up with my surgeon and he was pleased with how things were going. Its been a slow process, but things get better day by day.

My Husband took me to see fireworks on the 4th of July and I was so excited. It was a fun night. I've always liked the 4th and fireworks. It's a holiday I have fond memories of.




My Festive 4th Outfit:
Top- Target
Bottoms- Crimson Tribal Exuma Pants from Boca Leche
Sandals(not that you can see them)- Target








On Sunday the Hubby and I had a busy day. We went to Church with friends which was fun. Then we shopped a little and I got a smoothie from DQ that matched my skirt perfectly haha. I also got a few early Birthday gifts for my Hubby. (He turns 30 next week!) We then we to see Despicable Me 2 later in the afternoon with friends. It was so cute! To round out our evening we went to a Birthday dinner for another friend and her Husband. She is expecting and is just so cute. I love hearing about all of it! 
I was totally wiped out after all of that. I haven't had such an eventful day in a while. It's a bit rough on the belly so I'll take it easy this week.

I can't wait for this movie! (This is also my only ootd. If I turned to the side I looked pregnant from bloating and swelling. I'm ready for that to go away haha.)

4th of July Nails!

I ordered KBShimmer's Pimp my Pride because I thought that would be the perfect 4th of July manicure. I decided that I would try my hand at nail art with this manicure too. Just an accent nail though.

Pimp my Pride is fantastic. 2 coats with wonderful coverage. My accent nail is a smattering of different polishes. My base was 2 layers of Orly's High on Hope with a coat of Revlon's Heavenly in between. This would resemble the sky. I then used a dotting tool to make a firework exploding from the base of my nail with OPI's Solitaire. I added some colorful glitter with NOPI's Confetti Fun.

I'm so pleased with how this turned out! I love watching fireworks so this was perfect for me and so festive for Independence Day!

Now here are a million pictures for your viewing pleasure.
