Favorite Friday


Today my favorite this is the USA! Happy 4th of July! I love this country and I proud to be an American. The most memorable 4th of July I ever had was out of the country. I was on my mission in Bulgaria. The US embassy held a 4th of July celebration for all the Americans living in Bulgaria. When the Marines Walked in with The Colors (the flag) I could not hold back my tears. My pride and love for my country home over flowed onto my cheeks. It was such an amazing feeling to be in a foreign country but still feel the brotherhood of all the Americans around me.

I feel ya sister. The 4th is far and away my favorite too.

I did call you and leave a message. You didn't get it? I assumed you didn't call back because my BFE is WAY bigger than yours. I'll call you again.

I tell my kids all the time they're so lucky to have been born here.
