Happy Birthday America! I love that we celebrate America’s birthday at the beach. Every year we spend the same July week in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. We stay in the same beach condo. Sometimes my parents or my sister and her family join us. But this year, it was just the four of us. We’ve had an amazing time just hanging out as a family. We are buddies. Today was especially fun because we spent the entire morning splashing in the ocean waves. The kids had their very first root beer float at lunch. They helped me decorate the room in red, white, and blue. We took an evening beach walk, flew kites, and searched for sea shells. All while waiting for the fireworks which we could see perfectly from our balcony. Daniel was so inspired that he grabbed a sheet of paper and crayons so he could draw the colorful explosions. This was the first year that Annabel stayed up super late and she loved every minute of it. They are both finally in bed and the fireworks are still booming in the background while I type.
Thanks for an awesome party, America. God Bless You.
