Our 4th of July

We love to celebrate the holidays! I saw an idea to make a fruit pizza flag and I had to do it! Luckily we had my sister and her husband still there to help us eat it, and we gave some to the neighbors as well. So fun!We went to the town fireworks with my sister and her husband, Russ' parents and his little brother. We loved watching them and Caden liked the "big boom" and making letters/numbers with his glow sticks.
Plus, Russ lets me do my "girl things" and even appreciates the way that I love them so much. I painted my toe nails to look like the flag and made these fun tissue paper balls in patriotic colors. What a great husband! :)

We told Caden he could do pop-its for our activity for Family Home Evening. He was so excited and kept asking if it was Monday night or if we could do the Family Home Evening right then. He was so excited to throw the pop-its and hear them pop. He also loved watching the neighbor's fireworks after we put him to bed. :)

We feel so blessed to live in a free country to be able to worship how we want to, and to be able to feel safe. We are also grateful to all the armed forces that sacrifice so much to protect our great nation.
