I hope you all have a safe and fun-filled 4th of July weekend!

If you find yourselves with a few minutes to spare, I hope you’ll use that time to reflect on what this great country stands for. Give some thought to the tremendous sacrifices our forefathers made so that we might enjoy the freedoms we so carelessly take for granted today.

Please take a few minutes to listen to the video above.

    Hi Mystery! May you and your family have a great and safe 4th of July. I bet you’re going to have some yummy stuff to eat since you have so many great recipes!

    Two of my boys came back last year from serving over seas as well as my sister’s birthday is on the 4th of July. I keep praying all our troops make it home quickly to their families.

    God Bless you and your family!!!

    Thanks, Rebecca!

    Our troops are the best, Knight Owl, and I am so grateful to them for protecting our freedoms!

    Nancy–I’m so glad your sons made it back safe and sound. Thank them for their service for me, please! My middle son’s birthday is today and we always celebrate it on the 4th. (I think you call that killing two birds with one stone–I only have to have one celebration LOL)

    You have a wonderful day tomorrow, too, Niecey!
