4th of July, My Birthday/Weekend to Essex

     4th of July fireworks got rained out so we actually celebrated the 4th on the 5th :)  We went over to East Rock and watched the fireworks and hung out with our friends, Justin & Justine, who just recently moved from OK to CT!

TK in her festive attire.
My friend Emily had her precious daughter, Ellison.
I love taking pictures of her :)
My 26th birthday was my favorite birthday hands down.  Started the morning with a latte from Zachary before he went to work followed by snuggles with my sweet girl.  We met Zac for lunch at Panera and then Tatum and I went to every girls favorite store, Target. :)  Later that evening we met some friends downtown at Geronimos for dinner!  It might not sound like the most "exciting" bday, but for me-it was perfect.  It's the typical/routine days that I tend to enjoy the most because I LOVE my little family and I'm so thankful to be with Tatum all day, everyday.  
When my parents came up for TK's birth, they took a day to drive to visit a few nearby towns, one of which was, Essex.  They got us a gift certificate to go to a restaurant at the Griswold Inn.  We decided to use it towards a night at the hotel and eat there, too.  :)  It was fun just to get away and see some new sights.  

Our tiny, cozy room.


Pretty sure we were in bed by 10 PM :)




"Seriously mama, no more pictures please."






Random I know, but I thought it was a pretty color!
