Happy 4th of July!

Happy Independence Day! We count it a privilege and are so grateful to live in this free country! Let's remember to pray for our men and women in uniform and their families who are currently serving all of us.

Grandma and Grandpa Howe are here visiting. We are enjoying the incredible weather together as we spend most of our time playing in the backyard. Jon and I have both taken naps (yes, plural) as the kids are well-entertained too. :) My Dad has instated a family tradition of eating breakfast at Pucketts in Downtown Franklin on holidays, and this 4th of July was no exception. Yummy! - thanks Mom and Dad!

Happy 4th to you guys too! Thanks for the link, I've enjoyed the stories and laughs! We have a house, but no furniture, so still in the hotel. Cross your fingers for this week and hopefully a semi-normal life to follow.

We went to downtown St. Louis and sat under the arch and watched fireworks. I'm hoping next year we won't have any tears? How is Eli w/fireworks? Love you

Thank you for all your family has done for our country. We're grateful.

[And Puckett's is a fantastic breakfast tradition on holidays. Well done, Robert!]
