Happy 4th of July

We had a nice 4th of July weekend. We took the kids to the beach and had a blast as usual. This morning the church had its annual Picnic Breakfast and the kids got to do relays and had lots of fun. Then at night we went over to Megra & Papa's for hamburgers & hotdogs and as usual Papa provided us with an excellent firework show and lots and lots and lots of sparklers. We had a great time. Unfortunately Tucker had to work and we missed him not being there. Happy 4th of July to all our family and friends.

For All Our Heroes

They all fought for the Red, White and Blue.

The white men, the black men, the Indians too.

They were all heroes, or so it is said,

When the blood flowed, it was all crimson red.

They all fought for freedom, side by side,

Some of them lived, and too many died.

They were all valiant soldiers, every man,

They gave what they had, to the last stand.

We shouldn’t forget them, not one single soul,

And we should make sure their story is told.

They fought for the freedom of every man,

Their bravery is known, across our great land.

They all are our heroes, a much treasured lot,

And we should thank them for all we have got.

So raise up your hands, give thanks to a-high

For all the brave soldiers who lived and died.

As our lives go on, and in freedom we live,

We thank every soldier, for what he could give.
