| “ | The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more. |
What another great Fourth of July hosted by KK and Pops with Family and good friends. All five of us, along with Lisa, KK, Johnny, Katie, Beth(Gayle and Greg's sister from Africa), Gayle, Bella, Saba, Wes and Ashley, Robert and Cathy came up to Prestonwood to swim, eat dinner and hang out till the Fireworks go off.
Then all of us took our seat to watch the explosion of fire in the air except for Whitaker and Daddy who quickly leave when they start. Whitaker has a huge fear of fireworks. He can name any place we have been that might have fireworks or even remotely sound like fireworks. So him and Greg quickly left the premises to the local sound proof booth, just kidding.
Creighton sat with me and loved them. Poor guy was up till 10:30 and lasted the whole time. This is the latest that boy as even been awake - he did great!!
