Now that the holiday weekend has slowed down here on the island, I wanted to share a recap of our Little Luxuries Fourth of July celebration! We had a blast on Wednesday and could not have asked for more beautiful weather throughout the whole day-it was a hot one, but the clear sky made for a perfect fireworks show in the evening!
Throughout all three stores {Little Luxuries, The Artists Markets, and Canvas and Paddle} fresh lemonade and yummy candies were offered for the customers' sweet tooth from open until close. Oldies music was playing as we celebrated the only way we know how to...vintage style!
The boys, Andrew and I, celebrated together for most of the day with family and friends outside and had so much fun! Louis and Tommy fell asleep before the fireworks began, but within a couple years, I'm sure they will be able to stay up with the grown-ups to enjoy them as much as we do.
M-185, the paved interstate road around the island, was packed with tourists and locals during the fireworks show, especially on Windermere Point and areas near the public library and Mackinac Island Public School. The bright lights and different shapes over the water made for some loud cheers from the spectators! It was the perfect way to end such a special day for our country. We love the USA!
I hope you all enjoyed your holiday as well!
Nicole,
