Fourth of July is definitely one of my favorite holidays. The heat of summer, the sticky watermelon, the long day of swimming, the parades and the fireworks. There’s not a lot of preparation. There aren’t any presents. It’s just about having fun and celebrating the reasons we’re patriots—even when they’re challenged. I was telling Aron that I always feel a bit emotional when the fireworks begin and I look around to see so many faces lighting up, and we were remarking that it’s one of the few times a year that we’re all pretty much doing the same thing, all across the country. It’s a good day.
Some favorite photos of mine from this year’s holiday…
P.S. Last year
