This year, I get to be home for the 4th of July. I haven't been here on this holiday for a long time, so I am loving today! Every morning, this is what we did as kids:And this morning...the town still wakes us up at dawn blaring their sirens. As you can see, my family still rides on the fire trucks for the parade:
After the parade, we always go to a field for a Flag Raising Ceremony, watermelon and getting hosed down by the fire trucks! Good times ☺
I love this holiday! Not just because it is so much fun, but I also love that we all unite across the nation to celebrate our love for our Country, the men and women who serve, the Flag and the Constitution. Happy Independence Day!

I didn't go this year, but I sure did hear the sirens! I woke up Miles (he has never experienced it before) but all he said, after I asked if he heard the sirens, "What's wrong!" and then he went back to sleep! I could not get him up for ANYTHING! Sigh...maybe next year!!!
