Happy 4th of July!!!

Happy 4th of July!!! 

I am so thankful for our free nation, which was founded 238 years ago. It was built upon the Bible and godly principles. To celebrate the 4th of July, our family went over to our friend's house for dinner. Around 9 pm., we went to a baseball field, and waited, and waited, and waited some more for the fireworks to start. We waited probably over an hour. It was somewhere around 10 when the fireworks finally went off. Then we went back to our friend's house, and ate dessert at 11 something. When we got home, it was past midnight. We were so exhausted!!! Needless to say, we all slept good last night. I posted a video below of the fireworks we saw last night. Enjoy!!!


Remember to thank the Lord for this free country we can live in and where we can worship God freely.

                                         Psalms 100:1-5
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.


Here are some quotes from our founding fathers.
