Social distancing and 4th of July

With the gloomy covid 19 vastly spreading, social distancing is more important than ever.

This year celebrating the 4th of July may bring more challenges as we try to maintain our distance from others and stay safe.

Parades and firework shows will be canceled to keep Americans safe. That doesn’t mean we cannot celebrate our independence day!

Here are some 4th of July ideas for your family while maintaining social distance.

Have a six feet apart neighborhood parade.

Get with your neighborhood and have a 4th of July parade while remaining six feet apart. Your kids are sure to enjoy decorating their bikes or wagons in red white and blue and parading around the neighborhood.

Fire up the grill

Summer time is the perfect time to fire up the grill and do some grilling.

4th of July Desserts

There are so many 4th of July recipes to choose from! Check out pinterest to find your perfect 4th of July dessert!

Backyard Games

If you can’t go out, just set up some back yard games and practice social distancing while having some fun! Pinterest also has some great DIY backyard games.

Fireworks

If you live somewhere fireworks are allowed, grab some fireworks and a lawn chair and have your own show.

Rent a water slide

Water slides are the perfect way to enjoy the hot summer days. If you are looking for a great company to rent from in the Waco area try Rocket Inflatables at http://www.rocketinflatables.com

Relax with a 4th of July Cocktail

Find the perfect 4th of July cocktail and relax the day away!

I hope you all stay safe this Independence Day!

Happy 4th!

Her Voice

As a special needs mom, you learn to be the voice for your child.

Whether it’s knowing their facial expressions, sign language, body language or their own language. You learn to know what your child wants and needs.

My daughter speaks to me frequently about life and what’s bothering her. People may not understand her words, but I do.

I am her voice and here is her words.

“I love it when people talk to me and include me in their conversations.”

“Just because I am silent does not mean I am not listening, I hear every word.”

“I do like attention but I do not like being treated like a baby. “

” I startle easy and it embarrasses me so please don’t make a fuss.”

” I love to be included, even if I can’t do everything, I try my best. “

“I like helping people, if you give me a task I will try my hardest to succeed. “

“I face every problem with a smile on my face, but that doesn’t mean I am not sad. “

” I may laugh in a serious situation or if I am in pain but that does not mean I am laughing at the situation.”

” I do wish I could walk and wonder why I cannot. “

” I want to do what others my age are doing, and cannot understand why I can’t. “

” I am scared of my future, and what will happen to me when my mom is no longer here. “

These are Ciara’s words, not mine. This is her voice.

Just because she sits silent in a wheelchair, does not mean she doesn’t have a lot to say. You just have to listen.

Father’s Day Gifts for the Outdoors Man

Father’s Day is almost here, and if you have a husband like mine, he can be hard to shop for. He isn’t in to the customized wallets or shirts that say “Father of the Year”.

My husband is all about the outdoors. Hunting, fishing, shooting his guns and playing on his ATV.

Most of the time I have no idea what he is even talking about but over the last 20 years I have learned what he likes and what he dislikes.

I have searched and found the ultimate Outdoors man gifts for that man that is hard to buy for.

Fishing Tackle

https://amzn.to/3cMugYF

No matter how much fishing tackle you buy them, they always need more.

Engraved Pocket Knife

https://amzn.to/2MGAv5J

You seriously cannot go wrong with getting him a knife. And if they are going to appreciate anything engraved, it will be a knife.

Survival Kit

https://amzn.to/37eGfNv

My husband would love this! I actually might have to get this for him for Father’s Day!

Targets

https://amzn.to/2UrSf98

My hubby loves to shoot his guns and has his own shooting range so this would be a perfect gift for all those gun happy dads.

Maglite

https://amzn.to/2UurnVU

I seriously do not get the obsession with flashlights, but my husband loves them!

Spinning Rod and Reel Combo

https://amzn.to/2Yh6OgV

I really don’t think you can go wrong with a fishing pole.

I hope some of these ideas help you find the perfect gift for your Outdoors Man!

My Top 6 Plus Size Swimsuits

Summer is here and it is time to get ready for all those water activities. Putting on that swimsuit can add some extra anxiety to us bigger girls. Maybe we put on some extra weight during the winter and it is riding up in places you would rather it not ride up, or in my case sometimes the dang thing just won’t go over my big butt anymore. In any case, it might be time to get a new swimsuit.

I know swimsuit shopping can be such a hassle. I never see anything in the store that covers what I want to be covered. The cute swimsuits are for the skinny girls and we get left with ugly prints or just plain ugly designs.

I have found that online shopping is the way to go for finding a suitable swimsuit. I know that can be scary, not getting to see it in person, but always read the reviews to see if they are true to size and are of good material.

I have found some awesome plus size swimsuits on Amazon, I have been happy with every swimsuit I have ordered. Here are 6 of my favorite plus size swimsuits on Amazon. They all have tummy control and hide those unwanted body parts we do not want showing while we bask in the sun. If you see one you like just hit the link!
