Happy July 4th! Have been gone since late late night as I normally feature my "Sunday showhouse"on Sunday morning so will be back with it next Sunday. Hope everyone is well, happy and relaxed. Whatever your plans are and have been over this holiday weekend...hope the weather is cooperating. So far, so beautiful over this way. We are going to two parties later today, but I will take the earlier part of the day to "veg out" which I am so looking forward to!
When I think of July 4th I cannot help but think about old fashioned July 4th parades in a small quaint town, beautiful white clapboard homes draped in their red white and blue best, homemade fruit pies from this seasons best fruits, family togetherness, cute kids in red chipped wagons waving their little American flags with a dog by their side and of course the quintessential July 4th BBQ!! I think the words old fashioned and July 4th are synonymous, at least to me and its an ideal I want to hang onto. Life today moves so fast that I get great pleasure as I would suspect many of you do too, in reliving things from the past, as they once were, a time where time did stand still and life was simpler. So this post is all about an old fashioned tribute to July 4th....enjoy!
This is to me the poster child for a beautiful and patriotic home on July 4th
Delicious time to take advantage of the seasons freshest fruits!
Even the youngest revelers can show their July 4th spirit!
