There are two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other, wings.

Happy Birthday, America!

As I've said in previous posts -- my girls think every birthday requires a celebration. The 4th of July was no different and they were decked out from head to toe in glitter, glasses and glam.

We spent the day on the road to Reno (be sure to check out my next post about "Mountain Sheep"), having a BBQ with Granny, Papa and Aunt P, watching the girls watch fireworks for the first time, and then drifting off to sleep.


It was an exciting day and a great way to celebrate the birth of the country we call home. We're grateful for the freedom we enjoy and the men and women who protect it at all costs.

Happy Birthday, America!
