July 4th Weekend

12 07 2010

Our 4th of July was pretty busy, which is why I am writing this a week late. I love July 4th weekend because it incorporates one of my favorite holidays and Brian’s birthday! This year we definitely had a weekend to remember. It all started on Friday when Rachel, my best friend since 4th grade, came to visit. Her husband, Ted, is in Jersey Boys so she was able to come for the weekend. On Friday, we spent a fun night together at Fox and the Hound. Then on Saturday, we all went to breakfast followed by the pool in the afternoon. That evening we headed downtown to have dinner with Ted. He introduced us to his favorite new spot, Saffron Cafe. It was incredible and is now one of our all time favorite Indy spots.

Sunday was another fun and exciting day. Brian and I went to Symphony on the Prairie with a group of friends. We made a huge picnic and spent all evening listening to the symphony while playing cards and catching up with one another. My favorite part of the evening was the synchronized fireworks display.

Monday was Brian’s birthday so I got a group of friends together to surprise him. We all met up and went downtown to the Indy Indians minor league baseball game! He was pretty surprised and seemed to have had a good time. Like I said, this post was going to be short and sweet but here are a few more pictures for you to look at.
