Happy Friday, gang, and happy last day of June! That’s right, we zipped through this month at record pace. Now we’re staring the 4th of July weekend square in the face! We have a family tradition of going to the Georgia Club for hotdogs, hamburgers and fireworks complete with patriotic songs on July 3rd. Last year, a storm blew threw and rained on our parade so to speak. At least, it delayed the fireworks for an hour or so. But we had only brought blankets to sit on the grass which throroughly got drenched in the downpour so we had to pack up and trudge home, missing the fireworks show… This year, yours truly is prepared for this Fourth of July Weekend, as I bought a Stars & Stripes Chair for each member of the family. There’s no raining on our parade this fourth! Shhhh, don’t tell anyone as it’s supposed to be a surprise!
For today's Fridays with Oscar, Kelly threw together a salad that’s perfect for the 4th, a watermelon salad with feta cheese. And I might add it’s delicious! What’’s better than a Mai Tai on a hot summer day for our cocktail? Of course, Oscar decided to stop and say hello, and I know Ollie is lurking somewhere in the background. She always joins us even if it’s behind the scenes.
Morning! Love your post and will definitely try that salad. I do have a question about Oscar: I notice his muzzle is getting white and was wondering what kind of supplements that you have started using since he is a “senior” pup. I am a dog lover and have a rescue collie mix that has just turned 6 and am looking for something to add to help him as he gets older. I really appreciate any recommendations that you might have.
Hi Rhoda! Yes, Oscar turns nine this year! I have him on three different products. First is his dry food which is Hills Prescription Diet – Mobility. Then I add a topper to his dry dog food – Nutra Complete Premium Beef Dog Food that’s 95% beef & organs and packed with prebiotics, antioxidants, and amino acids. Then I recently added a supplement for joint care. It’s YUMOVE Advance 360.
Hope this helps!
Your outfits look so cute, the food delicious, and of course Oscar looks so handsome! We have our annual July 3rd party since you can see the town’s fireworks from our house! Have a wonderful time at the Georgia Club!
What’s better than watching fireworks from the comfort of your home?! Happy 4th of July!
Beth – you look so cute. Love the top and this is my favorite haircut on you. It looks amazing and I looks so elegant on you.
Great post. You both look summery and so relaxed. If you are on the fence about red, why not get Oscar a red bandana. He’s such a cool guy. This is the year I am going to try to make myself like watermelon, so thanks for the salad recipe.
Hello M.E. – Thanks so much! Perhaps this savory salad will aid in your quest to enjoy watermelon…I hope it does! A red Bandanna for Oscar would be perfect! Thanks so much for stopping by, xo Kelly
Happy July 4th! You both look awesome … and THAT watermelon salad and rum cocktail — YES, Please!
Thanks so much, Carolina Girl! I love that watermelon salad, it’s so refreshing – I could eat the whole thing! Have a great 4th! xo Kelly
