The 4th of July is just a great holiday. We had a wonderful day. It started off with a pancake breakfast with our ward at the park. After that we rushed home and began decorating bikes and animals for the neighborhood parade. It is a tradition to have a parade followed by a BBQ with games for the kids like egg toss, tug of war, swimming and three legged races with all of the neighbors. It is a great tradition. After the party we went home for a little down time. The kids and Daddy went swimming while I took a nap. That night we packed up a picnic and headed for Flower Mound High School for the fire works. We brought blankets, chairs, bean bags, footballs and Frisbees. They had bounce houses and blow up slides for the kids. We played football and ate our food. The fire works exploded right above our heads. It was so much fun. I feel so blessed to live in this amazing country. We are so very blessed. God Bless America!
