4th of July
Yesterday was the fourth of July. It is my favorite holiday and I feel a deep connection to it not only because my husband is in the Army but because I am very patriotic. I love the music, the bbqs,and of course the firewrorks. Unfortunately all fireworks where I live were banned this year because of an extreme drought which as produced extremely dry conditions. One spark and you risk the entire neighborhood going up in flames. I was disappointed to be spending my favorite holiday alone and without any fireworks but my friend May was kind enough to invite me to join her family for a backyard bbq and I was able to webchat with Hubby. I was also able to see the Boston Pops performance and fireworks on TV which was awesome since I used to watch them every year when I was younger and lived in Massachusetts. Watching the pops is one of my favorite fourth of July traditions. Overall it turned out to be a pretty great day. Happy Birthday America and thank you to all of the soldiers and families who protect and support you!
