This year on the 4th of July we went to Yachats with our good friends (and neighbors) The Maddox's. They have a house that is right on the beach so we could enjoy our own little private party on the 4th and still enjoy the fireworks of Yachats. Now that John doesn't have to work or we don't have to worry about him being gone, I love this holiday. It is always very comfortable weather, never too hot and usually not raining, we get together with friends and there is not a whole lot of work to do to prepare. We painted our nails a fun 4th of July theme, had s'mores, watched the kids enjoy fireworks and watch the big fireworks too.
While homeschooling this last year we did study a bit about our nation and really enjoyed learning a little bit more. I wish I had paid more attention in school, I feel like I'm learning right along with them in the subject of history. In any case we do live in a wonderful country that allows us to be able worship our God in the comfort of our own home or in the middle of the street for everyone to see. I hope you enjoyed your 4th of July just as much as we did.
