I LOVE the 4th of July!
I love the family and neighborhood gatherings. I love the mouthwatering smells that float across the yard on a summer's breeze from the grill. I love the sounds of children and adults playing together and having fun. I love gazing up at the sky wondering what lights will flash across it next. Each time a firework is shot into the air I say things like;
"Oooooh! So pretty! Look at that heart! That's my favorite!"
"Twinkling lights?! Sighhhhh! LOVE THEM TOO." By chance do you think this shot resembles Squidward from Spongebob in any way? I do.
Set them to some patriotic music and it's all over for me.
I'M A SOBBING WET MESS!
More than the gatherings, the fireworks or the parades, I LOVE MY COUNTRY and all it stands for.
FREEDOM! HOPE! LIBERTY! OPPORTUNITY! HAPPINESS!
Happy Independence Day!

haha! me too! this year we were boring. it rained this morning so we skipped the parade to keep pookie 'healthy' and swam in between rain drops. then tonite we drove around our neighborhood 'eavesdropping' on everyone else's fireworks displays. then bed. we're so exciting it's painful. ;)
Your photography is wonderful... And I've got a goooood eye.
Frizzy, I've missed stopping by... Just a note for now to let you know I'll be away much of July. Lately I've been so busy getting my ducks in a row as the saying goes, amidst birthdays and holidays and mini-vacations and 'chores.' I'll return when things settle down, third or fourth week of July. God bless you now and always, I pray, <3 , KathY
KathY,
I can't log onto your blog anymore. It says my invite has expired. I've also been looking for your email but have lost it somehow. I have thought of you time and time again but can't figure out how to reach you. Thank you so much for your comments and prayers. Have a wonderful July!
<3 Frizzy
