4th of July Celebrations


HAPPY 4th OF JULY

Since I was little we have had a neighborhood picnic and it has made the 4th my favorite holiday. Hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad, talking with old friends, little kids running around in swimsuits, sparklers, and fireworks. It is perfect and timeless all wrapped into on nostalgic package. I am so excited to share my same experiences with Scarlett. The next night we spent the evening with family and watched great fireworks at Dragon Ridge. While driving to watch them we sang one of Toby Keith's patriotic tunes and soon found we knew very little of the song. It made for a good laugh and the realization that we can not sing... at all. I am so blessed to live in this "promised land". Our founding fathers were inspired and I hope they are proud of where America is today.


First time on grass and it amazed her
