God Bless the USA!

Sometimes I think about what it would be like to live in another country and I just shudder! Do we even realize the blessings and freedoms we experience every day because we live in the best country in the world? And now that my brother, Phillip, is fighting in Iraq, it makes me even more thankful for the sacrifices our soldiers make to give us this freedom.

Last night a friend had us over to enjoy the fireworks in their neighborhood. They live in historic Chickamauga, GA. Right in front of their house is a large grassy area where there was a patriotic band and then fireworks afterwards. We had the best seat in the house!! It was a lot of fun and I was so thankful I didn't have to fight traffic or walk miles and miles. :) Thank you Fosters!
