Yo everybody! Back to the grind we go…I hope everyone had a great weekend. I love how everyone kind of snaps into a summery, fun mood over 4th of July, no worries!! I’d like to keep this going for the month 
Yesterday, we had a party for my lovely Momz at our house…just a bunch of her friends over for some afternoon delights. It was a big success, a lot lot lot of work, and I think everyone enjoyed it!!
We had out some generic party apps- crackers, cheese, olives, salad, m&m’s, pretzels and chips.
Momz’ Salsa Tip: cut up fresh tomatoes and put them in jarred salsa= insta-deliciousness!
My stepdad painted all our lawn furniture bright white- it looked so good!
We bought a new wind chime for the part-ay….it’s really more of a church bell/gong effect :O
Amez we know how to get down….
So the fire got a smidge outta control- better char right!??
My plate of beef kebab- salad, rice and deviled egg.
Dessert= carrot cake! I had a few bites then was adequately stuffed to the gills.
All in all, I think L-Sell had a great time!! L-sell is a pet name for my momz that my best friend coined, some people are already in the know Having parties is a great excuse to deep clean your house, buy yummy food, and dress up, I love it. Hope you all are doing well, enjoy your Monday!
