I hope you are all having a lovely 4th of July weekend…I know I am!  Around here it’s been all beach days, pool dips, raspberry picking, movie-going and attempting to stay cool in this massive heat wave that’s sweating its humidity allllll over New England.

On the 4th, Tegan and I braved the crowds at India Point Park to hear the Rhode Island Philharmonic outdoor concert and see a pretty impressive firework display over the water.  It was my first time attending the annual event, and I loved the experience!  Next year I’m going to bring a bigger blanket, a picnic, and some wine- Parisian style!

Tomorrow a few of the dancers and I are participating in a little photoshoot for a clothing boutique in downtown Providence called Shoppe Pioneer.  All week I’ve been ignoring my strawberry/frozen cool whip cravings (I blame the soaring temps!) and attempting to shed some of those pesky Paris pounds!  I’ve never modeled before, and must admit I’m slightly freaked about posing for the camera without making a goofy face or flashing a cheesy smile…any pointers?!  Wish me bon chance!
