Hot dogs, baked beans, fabulous dips and chips… cool dip in the pool, talking with friends in lounge chairs, watching kids laughing together with school friends they haven’t seen all summer… loud banging fireworks in the street, glowing sparklers, moms trying to make sure no one blows off their fingers… the joys of the 4th of July .  Too bad its only once a year.  Hope you all had a wonderful time celebrating!!
