What is it about the 4th of July weekend
that makes it so special?! I find myself
at the height of anticipation, that whole,
I can hardly wait, kind of thing.
I understand perfectly that this day, July
4th, 1776, is the date in which we, as
a nation, celebrate the independence of
the United States. And, I honor this!
Still, I love how families living afar,
get together for the entire weekend and
families living in close proximity, get
together for the day. There are picnics
to enjoy, drinks to be hoisted, fireworks
to be set off and all kinds of catching
up to happen.
One of the things that really helps
is that there is usually pretty decent
weather in July. Obviously, Christmas
and Thanksgiving, not so likely. The
more family that gets together, the
more important good weather matters.
Most homes won't accommodate too
many extra people.
So hey, let's celebrate all of it this
weekend . . . our country, our families,
the enormous blessings we have in
living here.
I for one am going to make homemade
icecream for the first time in about a
hundred years! I pray I don't overdo it
as that seems to be my modus operandi!
cant wait to see you
family celebrations
what say you we dance
