It's spending time with our family and community, sharing love for God and Country

A day filled with gratitude for our freedoms,

 

 enjoying our loved ones,

 reconnecting with family from afar,

food and fireworks!

It doesn't get much better than that. :)

Where I Live

There is so much beauty

In the fertile farms and in the desert

In the lakes and blue summer sky

In a small town Independence Day

An old-fashioned Chicken Run 

and reverencing the FLAG

In cousins on the trampoline

And fine young men.

I'm so thankful for the blessings that surround me!
