I'm so excited for the 4th tomorrow! I love the 4th! I love thinking about our country's history and everything that it took to get us here. I'm so thankful for this country I'm blessed to live in and all the freedoms I enjoy because I live here. Today in church we sang some patriotic songs and I just loved it. I love paying attention to the lyrics and knowing where they come from.
I miss camp and teaching about the war of 1812 and the Star Spangled Banner. I can't even imagine being there and witnessing everything that was happening. A few years ago, we went back east and I got to go to Gettysburg and to Fort McHenry and those are memories that will last with me forever. It was amazing to stand in the area where our National Anthem was written, to see and step where part of the war was fought.
anyway..so excited for tomorrow!!
The summer list is coming along nicely! So far I've visited 1 lemonade stand, I had my dad teach me how to make cobbler, I've had smores, tried the tacos, eaten plenty of snowcones, I went to the drive in and up to camp. I've had such a blast with the list and I'm excited to do more things on it. Happy Summer!
