We Declare it Fun on the 4th!

How will you celebrate America's big day?
It's our country's biggest birthday party of the year! On the 4th of July, summer is in full swing and everyone is in the mood to get together and enjoy good food and drinks. Whether you are staying at home, heading out to the beach or picnicking at a the fireworks, call up family and friends and share your patriotism.
Celebrating the 4th can be just as fun in your backyard as anywhere else! Decorate your place settings with these DIY patriotic fans for the heat, and for some late night fun, roast marshmellows by the fire pit. So pick up a game of horseshoes and give a cheer to the U.S.A!
The holiday weekend is a perfect excuse to hit the beach. We loved these ice cream cone clip art covers that you can print out, compliments of Martha Stewart. Ice cream is the perfect treat to cool down with in the heat of the day. So pack up your beach chairs, bring along your dog and a frisbee, and enjoy some sparklers when the sun goes down.
Most small towns in Fairfield and Westchester county have their own firework displays. In our town of New Canaan, this calls for a picnic at Waveny Park. Thousands of people get together with family and friends, and trust us, at these events you wont go hungry. We found this great recipe that puts a spin on your 4th of July classic fried chicken, which is coated in pretzel crumbs!
