Happy 4th of July!

The 4th of July is my favorite holiday...yes, I love it more than Christmas, Thanksgiving, and especially more than Valentine's Day. My favorite things about it are that you don't have to worry about finding gifts, cooking a big meal or dressing up and you still get to hang out with your favorite people! I was raised in a very patriotic family and I love my country.
I'm thankful for those who have and do put their lives in danger to protect mine, I'm very proud of my grandfathers, dads, friends and former students who have/do serve and am very thankful for the freedoms we have today.
Six years ago, I got another reason to love this day...Craig proposed on July 4, 2003 under the fireworks. It was perfect. It's been an awesome six years...I love you, Craig!
This year we went to our friends Michael & Missy's house and I got to get some great pics of Koda & Brynne and some fireworks. I wanted to get a pic of all four us but I never could track Koda down...he had a blast.
Here's some of the pics...God Bless You & God Bless America!
