I don’t know why I am so Patriotic or why I tear up every time I hear the national anthem. I am sure that my parents instilled it into me at a young age.
My favorite holiday is the 4th of July. I love celebrating our independence and seeing everyone so full of pride for our wonderful country.
I get to see this every time I take the kids I nanny down to the beach. Its always a good reminder that I need to be more thankful for my freedom and for this amazing country.
On the 3rd of July we had our stake fun run and flag ceremony. Deric and our friend Levi dressed up to do the run. They did a very good job and Deric even came in 3rd in his age division!
They were the best dressed guys there, well the only ones dressed up!!!!
It was a very nice relaxing weekend. We just hung out at home and bbq’d. on the 4th we just went to our local high schools fireworks show. we got there about 20 minutes before they started! It was so nice to just have a relaxing weekend!
