God Bless America

Oh how we love the USA.

These past few months have given us a whole new outlook on this blessed land in which we live.

I am grateful every day for the sacrifice of all those who have gone before us, and who are currently fighting...for blessing us with freedom, liberty, and justice. 

Let us all strive to keep it that way. 

This year was a little unique.

Our plans got re-routed to Utah,

and we spent most of our time with family and friends of those who loved my dear grandpa.

I can't think of a better place to be then in the arms of those we love on such a special holiday.

Tell me you love red heads as much as I do??

I would die to have my cousins hair, BLUE eyes, and freckles.

Oh...and have I mentioned how much I love my family?

Here are some MORE...I know...pictures of the ones I love :)

I can't help it. 

And I had to throw a pool basketball picture in for tradition sake.

After MANY bloody toes (seriously, you should have seen how many band aids we went through!!),

and lips, the game still remains a favorite.
