I LOVE the 4th of July and EVERYTHINGassociated with it.
The FOOD!
The FIREWORKS!
The GATHERING OF FRIENDS!
And most of all, THE FREEDOM TO CELEBRATE THIS WONDERFUL HOLIDAY!
I wouldn’t give it up for the world and thankfully I don’t have to. I send my heartfelt thanks out to the men and women in the military, fighting to allow us the freedom we often take for granted. Without them and those who came before them, we would be living very different lives. Here’s a military video, just for fun. 🙂

It’s hard to think after seeing those hotties :). Didn’t really do much other than try and stay cool and watch the fireworks.
ok, so I just got a shock from licking the screen – those are some nice military hotties you have on that awesome post – LOL
Thank you so much for being apart of the hop. I love the 4th and I spent it with my kids and grandkids. We love the fireworks and this year we got to let the grandkids in on helping with the firecrackers – LOL My 3 yr old grandson likes the big ones – ha ha

We are having a really bad heatwave in the midwest so I just stayed inside and watched fireworks on TV. Got to see 3 different ones from different parts of the country. Thanks for the giveaway.

Yummmy!!! I didn’t do anything, my hubs is in the Middle East, so his dogs took turns trying to dig a hole under my butt, they are terrified of fireworks. LOL
What was the question?
I’m not doing anything exciting.

We had a BBQ and went swimming. We had like three different cheese cakes flavors:plain cheese cake, strawberry cheese cake, and baked cheese cake.
Then we launched some fireworks.

We are going to be starting a new tradition…Going to Six Flags because no one is there and there are no lines. Not to mention, they have an awesome firework display. We love it.

I thought the plan was we would have a BBQ at my sister’s house but that fell through. We did have fireworks though. That’s about it!
Thanks for the giveaway.

Well, it is past the 4th, so I will tell you what I did. 🙂
We had a cookout at a friend’s house and fireworks for the kids. Great time. I hope yours was wonderful. I’m like you in that I like everything about the 4th. Love those soldiers too. And thank you for those yummy pics.
We had a nice quiet family day! Went to our local parade and then lounged around in the air conditioning and then cooked out later!
We spent the 4th together as a family, I have 8 kids so lets say it was LOUD! O ;pve s[emdomg the entire day just hanging out with the entire family. We always have a huge BBQ! Love the salads, BLT is my favorite!
