Can I just say one thing? I promise I won’t get all mushy about it, but I can’t post about our July 4th celebration without starting off with this one statement. I LOVE our country. I really do. As Edie would say, I love it to the moon and stars and sunshine.
To celebrate our great nation of freedom this year, Edie participated in a water balloon fight while Ken listened to veterans speak of their service. We all ate some bar-b-que and corn on the cob. We said the pledge of allegience and sang the national anthem with thousands of others standing beside us, and then we ended the day of celebration with fireworks in the park, sitting in lawn chairs holding our children in our laps. Happy Birthday, America! You know how to throw a great party.

I couldn’t agree more. We went to concord MA today where the minute men fought one of the first battles of the revolutionary war. I was overwhelmed with the bravery it must have taken to fight the English.
