Do you know what an Elderflower is?!? I really don't, but I do know they taste delicious. And they sound pretentious. I'm that girl that order any fancy drink that has Elderflower in it at bars and I always get the side eye. Even from my close friends!! But that's okay, I don't mind. Elderflower is so tasty in alcoholic drinks, it really blends well and is quite refreshing. In case you're wondering, my love affair with Elderflower, started when I discovered St. Germain liquor(almost 10 years ago I just realized!!) and I haven't looked back since.

4th of July Outfits for the Whole Family
It's hard to believe that over year has gone by since Oliver was born and that we're almost at the 4th of July. Last year, our 4th of July wasn't much of a Holiday, more so it was a day I was glad to have my husband home from his job. We were deep in the trenches of having a newborn and to be honest, the fireworks were more of an annoyance than anything. I was desperately trying to sleep whenever possible, dealing with postpartum anxiety, and loud fireworks did not help! This year, I'm planning on maximizing my time with my guys and maybe grilling out with friends. Regardless of what we do, we have our patriotic gear ready! Old Navy has always been one of my go-to places for patriotic ... Read the Post
