American Flag flying in our yard!!!! |
Welcome to JULY, my Friends. Tomorrow, we Americans celebrate our country's birthday... Happy Birthday, America, and Happy 4th of July to all of you!!!! I hope you are with family and friends and are celebrating all day tomorrow remembering what a great country we live in!!!!!!
Today, in honor of my country, I have chosen to pay tribute to our FLAG. The flag is so important to me, a VERY Patriotic American. George and I fly the flag in our front yard year-round --and it is SO special to us. It is lit at nights ---and seems to light our path when we come home from somewhere after dark.
I hope you enjoy these little tributes --and I hope they mean something to you today --and always.
