I love spending the day with family. We have a cook out and go to see the town firework display at night. It's awesome.

Your 4th of July creations are so cute :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the 4th of July is that we pack up all of our kids and drive to see my family. It's fun to pack a picnic and spend the day at the lake. The kids can swim, play in the sand, and enjoy time with their cousins!

I love the 4th because of family time and burgers on the grill. Now I have an even better reason, to spend it with my little man! Hugs Missy!
ReplyDeleteNone other than FIREWORKS!!!!! They are the best.
ReplyDeleteI agree with so many others. To me, it is all about family and getting to spend time with them. We have five kids (three married now)and we don't all get together as often as we'd like, but when we do, it is the best!

We always start the day with the local parade. The kids are usually on the church float passing out candy. Then we walk through the park and check out all the vendors, and craft booths. Later that evening we all get together (about 30 of us in all) under the palm trees at the park and eat watermelon and watch the fireworks over the river.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what my favorite thing would be....maybe the wonderful small hometown feel of it all....good times..good times...

Nice job Missy!!
ReplyDeleteThe 4th of July is the day before my birthday, so every year it's a big birthday celebration with the parade, fire works and family get-togethers! When I was little, my dad use to tell me that the firework's were special just for my birthday - it was always a special time for me! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis year we are planning a huge party to celebrate the 4th and our daddy (my DH) coming home after being gone for five months on the USS Abraham Lincoln. We will play in the pool, have a BBQ and do lots of catching up!

Well I can't top any of these comments about family. This is the 1st 4th of July I haven't had to work. No plans, really, just going to go with the flow. And I want you to know I'm taking credit, by birthright, for the 4th. Massachusetts is where it all began with a massive Tea Party. And I was born and raised there. LOL. Everyone have a wonderful, safe, 4th of July. GOD Bless America!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about the 4th of July is the parades. We take the boys and really enjoy the family time and the fun at the parades. It is a wonderful holiday.

I LOVE your new things. I am so glad that you started selling your custom things again. i will be placing an order soon.
ReplyDeleteI love the fireworks and spending time with family. I would prefer to be at the beach, but as long as I am with family, it doesn't matter.

I enjoy the 4th since it gives another family get together although since last year it will be become a sad memory as well since my "Pops" passed away last year July 4th.... we miss him dearly !!

My favorite part of 4th of July is definitely the fireworks - I still feel like a little kid when I watch them!
ReplyDeleteI always loved the 4th growing up. Dad always bought fireworks for us and we spent it at my Godmother's cabin on the lake. We'd spend the day swimming and fishing, then roast hot dogs over the fire...then the fireworks.
ReplyDeleteNow Laura has a big party and fireworks on the 3rd...that way everyone gets 2 days of celebrating! I'll spend the day cooking as usual...but it's a labor of love so I don't mind. Hope yours is great Missy!
I love the 4th of July. We always spend time with family. Grilling out, shooting fireworks and roasting marshmellows. Look out Cecile, here we come.
ReplyDeleteYou make the cutest things Missy!
ReplyDeleteI love 4th of July because everyone flys their American flags so proudly and I enjoy seeing them hanging from the eves and porches of the homes. We're so lucky to live in this wonderful country and have so many freedoms that we take for granted. I'm proud to be an American.
