4th of July Nail Art: Two Designs!
Happy Fourth of July! Today we are praying for no rain in the evening hours so we can have our annual picnic on the banks here in Philly as we watch the fireworks! In preparation for this Independence Day, we picked out our red, white and blue outfits and did our nails to match! Okay, so *I* did our nails, while Sister sat huffing and puffing. Either way, we have some really cute patriotic nails for the holiday!

How could something so simple to make, taste so good? We decided that we should try to make the S’mores a bit more fancy this year rather than just the normal way. We then came up with five different versions to try at the picnic, and these are the results! We each rated them from 1 to 5. Continue reading S’mores 5 Ways!
