Happy Fireworks Day!!!

GodBlessAmericaCard I *heart* the 4th of July. I need to go around my little town tomorrow and get some photos of all the flag-lined streets everywhere. This is one of the fun aspects of living in a small town. When the holidays roll around…. it feels small and personable and friendly. There is a celebration at Liberty Park tomorrow where we can go have free lemonade and watermelon then watch the huge fireworks display they have planned. And for those of you who are wondering…. NO… it’s not that hot here! LOL I was just thinking today how nice it’s been outside compared to what we would be living with in Arizona right now. I mean I still do my walking in the park after dinner with my kiddos here. THAT would not be happening in AZ. And FIREWORKS are NOT illegal here. BONUS!!! HA HA! I do miss my family and friends though and am counting the days until Brody and I fly out there for our 10 day visit the end of this month! Woooo! Hooooo!

Okay so the card I posted up there is actually one I made to enter into the next round of the Paper Crafts Gallery Idol Contest but it didn’t make the cut. LOL I mean MY cuts. I made another one as well and thanks to the opinions of a few friends I ended up submitting a different one I am excited about but we will see how it does! Voting for the next round starts on Monday the 7th. I will keep you posted on that!

AllAmericanCutiesLayoutTTS14 Here’s a layout I created for Triple the Sketch #14 this week. I also used the goodies from the June kit over at Create My Keepsake. This photo of Bailee & Macey has been in my photos-to-be-scrapped box FOREVER but I kept putting it off until I saw the kit from CMK. Love how it turned out. I tried to keep it pretty simple so the photo could shine! I can’t believe my girls were ever this small! My girlfriend Lori who lives in Michigan is the one who bought the adorable little Ralph Lauren dresses the girls are wearing in this photo. It made her smile all over again 8 years later to see this picture…. this time on a layout! Thanks again girl! Love ya!

So what are your plans for the 4th??? Anything exciting going on? We are having a low-key day then heading to the park late in the afternoon. I might fill up some more water balloons for the girls and let them go at each other in the backyard. I’m just grateful for the freedom we have to do that. Thankful for our military who serves our country by choice and so self-lessly. There should be more than a couple of these Holidays a year to celebrate our Independence. But I remain grateful every day of the year!

Have a safe & happy 4th of July!!!

    Oh I know! I’m so excited about not having illegal fireworks tomorrow! Infact, people have been setting them off at night since we got here and we even bought some! We did some the other night and I swear I felt like we were going to go to jail! It’s so strange!

    I think people out here are super patriotic or something too. (Maybe it’s just too hot in AZ during the summer to care) but dang there is money to be made in flag sales. They are EVERYWHERE.

    I love your card by the way. I didn’t get to email with my vote for fave.

    Happy 4th!!!
