Time is flying! Seems like just yesterday we escaped the dumpster fire of 2020, but now it’s July 1st…so, fire up that grill, crack open a spiked seltzer (if that’s your thing), and get your best patriotic Old Navy gear on!
After so many holidays spent masked and alone, we can finally look forward to celebrating Independence Day with our loved ones.
