Independence Day '09















I'm a sentimental person and that's why this blog is so fun. I was able to pause and reflect on just how lucky we are to be a part of this wonderful country. There are many books out there that reveal the world in all its colors and I sure have more respect for the red, white, and blue colors we live under. Consider this, how many people are in the world today? AND how many live in the US and have the freedom to worship how they desire, choose what they want to do for a living, and how they want to live? You do the math, we are so blessed!

We were able to celebrate the 4th with Whitney's family, the "all-American" way with a barbeque, home-made ice cream, a parade, and fireworks!

Sounds like fun! Our neighborhood did a block party - complete with a BBQ, bounce house, slip 'n slide, and fireworks! We already miss you guys - hope to see you again soon.
