Happy 4th of July! We have had a great day... We got a few chores done in the morning and enjoyed just hanging out the rest of the day. It doesn't really seem like the 4th of July as we have been without the sunshine and hot temperatures. We had a little BBQ with my parents and the boys are now watching the Phillies on t.v . A perfect day even without the sunshine!! We made some fun treats to share and I must say that Mom gets the "Blue Ribbon" this year for the adorable mini hamburger and fries baskets...They are made out of sugar cookies, a cupcake, brownie, and frosting. Two thumbs up, Mom! Hmmm.. This might have to be yearly challenge!!
On a serious note, we are thankful to be living in a free country. We are thankful that our children can experience a country where they can make their own choices regarding religion, politics, and their futures. We are thankful for the ability to worship God without fear. We are thankful for the men and women that have sacrificed their lives and have left their families to fight for our independence and freedom. On this day, we are thankful for so many things that we might have taken for granted if we had not had a small glimpse of another way.
