And the home of the Brave!

 - by Brittany

Our 4th of July was pretty low key this year. The kids played in the back yard while Kevin worked on his truck. Ella hasn’t figured out that you’re supposed to hold a Popsicle by the stick and not where it’s cold.

 

 

We went swimming, and then came home for dinner and bed. Fireworks here don’t start till after 10 pm when it gets dark. I was not about to keep the kids up that late. We heard fireworks all night long, though.

I am so grateful for this country and all those who serve to keep it the country it is supposed to be. I had a cousin come home from Afghanistan right before Father’s day. He had been there training their army.

I have another cousin who’s husband is in the air force. I’m so grateful for them and other friends that are serving our country. I sometimes get wrapped up in my own bubble and forget what is going on, but I am always appreciative to these soldiers.
