Today: One last #CoachJeff post on America250 as we look back at the holiday weekend.
Our's was a fun and relaxing celebration and I hope the same is true for you.
Things we did to celebrate:
- Watched a lot of FIFA World Cup action.
- Also watched a little Braves baseball.
- Hosted extended family for a backyard barbecue with all the fixins'.
Things we didn't do:
- Attend the local parade. It was a bit too hot for the home folks.
- Attend a fireworks exhibition. Everyone was enjoying the family gathering so much the time got a way from us.
- Set off fireworks on our own. It is illegal to do so in our county. Some neighbors didn't get that memo, however.
Not to worry. It was a very nice 4th of July despite a few booms.
Lots of laughter and energy from my kids and their cousins. My mother soaking it all up. My sister and I having a nice sidebar conversation. Lisa playing the role of genteel hostess and doting aunt.
It was one for the books.
I did slip outside for an early morning walk and prayer time. And, yes, that was me out in the front yard pausing to salute the flag. I told you last week I am a nerd when it comes to such things.
As for the day, the burgers were tasty, the company was great and the home team won.
A perfect holiday recipe!
