Red, White, and Cute - Happy 4th of July

Happy 4th of July Family!

As a kid, the 4th of July was one of those times of the year that my sister and I would get brand new outfits, brand new shoes, and a cute new hairdo! You couldn’t tell us that we weren’t fly. The 4th of July was also the time of year that we got to go back home (Alabama) to visit all of our family. It was a time of homecoming. Family from near and far would come back home for the weekend just to get together, cook, drink, laugh, and really just enjoy each other.

I always looked forward to the barbecue ribs, chicken, polish sausages, macaroni and cheese, baked beans, collard greens, and every other side dish on the soul food list; and of course a cold pop (soda). Those were the good old days.

Well currently, your girl is headed to New Orleans to have an amazing time with my girls at the 2019 Essence Festival. However, I had to make sure I dropped a blog post on one of my favorite holidays to give you a cute red, white, and blue look.
