The fourth of July, has always been the big outdoor party of the year for us. It is the week of my birthday, and I have to say that I don't mind sharing the celebration with our country...not one little bit. Getting to see fireworks has always been a part of the happy celebration and this little area of the Jersey Shore is no slouch when it comes to the big extravaganza in the sky. One of the things our area is known for is the fireworks display over the Navesink River. Originally just a Red Bank thing, now we are torn between stepping to the left to see the fireworks in Red Bank, or stepping to the right and seeing them in Rumson. Kind of crazy...one river and two sets of fireworks. Plus, on the following night, we get to see the fireworks at the beach. This would be my favorite...comfy beach chair in the sand, kids running around and then it gets dark and you get this magnificent display. Total small town happiness.
It also happens that Pink Saturday falls on Independence day. Last week, daughter in the middle and I went to the new shopping outlet in Tinton Falls to pick up a few things. I was specific. Over to the Gap to get new yoga pants that were on sale for 11.99, and t shirts on sale for 4.99 each. I found exactly what I wanted, my daughter found a few new pairs of pants and things were good. We looked in a few other stores, and then stopped in the Ugg store. Anyone who has ever owned a pair of Uggs knows that they are like walking on a cloud...seriously...so comfy. Let me just say that I had no intention of buying new boots in the summer. Not even on sale, but this is what came into my view.. irresistable! It was the lining of the boot that clinched the sale though, pink sherpa.
I'm still not sure that I will keep them, but as far as Ugg boots go, these are a work of art. So, pink Ugg boots for Pink Saturday. Please stop by Beverly's blog, How Sweet the Sound for more wonderful Pink Saturday posts.
♥, Susan
