(To the tune of My Country Tis of Thee or God Save the Queen/King):
King George, he had a date.
He stayed out very late.
He was the king.
Queen Mary paced the floor.
King George stayed out 'till four.
She met him at the door.
God save the King.
And a little more um reverent I suppose:
"No, posterity, you will never know how much it cost us to preserve your freedom. I hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it." -John Adams
Again, Happy 4th of July, the 232nd anniversary of the birth of this nation, and the 182nd anniversary of the deaths of Thomas Jefferson and John Adams.

I love the picture of my cute nieces & nephew!
That picture is cute. I also love what you did with your blog, looks great! Sorry the fireworks were less than spectacular!
thanks. Fireworks were fine. It is our own fault for where we sat I guess. It isn't like there aren't trees all over the place though. We still had fun.
Tiff,
Happy 4th! Love the BLOG! I have not had the time to get on your blog in a while... work has been nuts but it is over in 5 weeks. I would absolutely LOVE to reconnect!! Have time for an "Old Friend"?? Miss you and the kids TONS :-)
