Fourth Of July 2011

We had a wonderful fourth of July! It's a great day to celebrate freedom!!

I hope all of you remembered to tell your children why we celebrate :)

We went to my hometown, Kingston, and they had alot of festivities going on downtown. One was that they were teaching everyone Zumba and my son decided he wanted to join in. As you can probably tell, my son has no fear and he loves to sing and dance - and loves to be the center of the attention :)
The boys got to spend some quality time with their daddy...

We reserved a VIP table at Redbones On The River and then went to the parking lot for a perfect view of the Fireworks. Most of our time was spent on the second level at our tiny, very expensive table - ha! We won't make that mistake again.

If you look really close you can see my darling five year old on stage with the band, The Riversharks. So, like I said, he has to be the center of attention! ;)

My granny asked us to stop by after the fireworks were over and we're always looking for a reason to go get some sweet hugs from granny and papaw Wilson - the two most inspirational people I know. This picture is worth a million words. My grandmother is battling multiple myeloma and has hospice care and through all of that, my grandfather has battled his own health issues, mainly from the wear down of caring for his wife. I think that is a great testament to what a Christian husband he is and what a Godly man I can say my grandfather is. There are so many men who could take lessons from him about what it means to be someone's husband!

I had a wonderful holiday! I felt better than I have in awhile and spending time with my family just helped me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Happy Fourth Of July to all of my blogger babes :)
