"On this day of Independence, on this Independence Day...I'm singing a song of freedom for all people who cry out to be free...." that's from the song of Freedom sang by Bing Crosby in one of my favorite movies "Holiday Inn".
I hope you have some wonderful plans for the 4th!
My Brownie Troop was recognized by ADOPT A BATTALION LONG ISLAND through the Boots on the Ground Organization for providing gift bags to our veterans. Here are some of them:
We plan to keep doing projects for our veterans. Last year we sent cards and gifts to Walter Reed Hospital and other stuff. Our kids need to know that freedom isn't free. Sometimes adults need reminding of that too! :)
My husband replaced a window in Caitlin's playhouse above the chicken coop!
It's a beautiful window and Caitlin can open it and close it unlike the other window we had. He also put new railings, steps and lights!
Now for the interior...I don't have pictures yet but he got her some indoor/outdoor carpet. We'll be on the hunt for some furniture for it so she can have her clubhouse in comfort!
Here is Miss Molly Moo Moo looking very Presidential in the family room...
I'll be seeing plenty of black and white cows that remind me of my Molly Moo when I go to Lancaster County shortly! Counting the days till I'm in my "happy place"!
Next week is a busy week! Brownie Pool Party! My troop is "bridging" as they call it to Junior Girl Scouts! Pool Party at my co-leader Cheryl's house. Can't wait!
Have a great holiday, friends!
Loving all your patriotic vignettes. Congratulations on your work with the veterans. We could use your talented hubby at the a frame this week. Happy 4th !!!
ReplyDeleteLove the work that you're doing for our vets. I want to get a wish list from a vet at our nearby hospital this Christmas. They've done so much for us and we do so little for them in return.......
ReplyDeleteThat's such a great shot of your kitty. It's magazine worthy! Hope you had a great 4th!
