Brand New Pair Of Roller Skates

Some red, white, and blue pics





 
 
 
 
 
 
Jess lives in an area where they don't allow fireworks, so that bothers her every year, but she always finds something fun to do, and she lives about 5 minutes from the ocean, so she doesn't complain much.  
 
 
Nel is moving in her new place this week.  So much to do, so much cleaning, so much organizing.  It will be tiring moving with the baby, but she's pretty efficient, and I know she'll do fine.  
 
As for me.....
will probably watch the fireworks in my town,
and
I'm just thankful to be free!
 
 
Happy Fourth of July, friends.
 
 
This is a song that I used to love growing up, when things were simple, those carefree days.  I think my favorite version is the one sung by last years' American Idol winner, Maddie Poppe.  Enjoy!

I love that song and I remember it. I love America - the red -white-and blue. I am thankful to be free.
I love fireworks but Disco does not.
Well everyone is home now as it should be.
I saw that chocolate heart.
And tea!
The rose was beautiful.
Looks like a 4th of July picnic there.
Have a good one.

Dearest Sheri, you are right; this song takes me back to when I was a teen and this song was BIG....that freedom, that openness in the summer air! I'm not going to say that I miss those days because I LIVE THEM OUT now during my long summer vacation. Have fun my friend, as you go and enjoy the lights.

Lovely photos Sheri! Wishing you a great 4th and week!

That is such a fun song. Growing up, we had a really long sidewalk in front of our home and I skated a million miles! Your photos are lovely. Our little town will have fireworks but sadly, the noise scares my pets. They will probably spend a lot of time under the bed! I wish you a blessed and happy Fourth!

Beautiful pics. Wow..hard to believe that July is already here.

I liked that song, too...will listen to this version later, though I probably heard it when she sang it. I love Almond Joys, too. I don't think we will be doing much for the 4th...Roger cannot stand to be out in the heat.

Hello Dear Sheri...What a charming, darling post. Bet that candles smells divine. And yes, I'd gobble up that chocolate Sandie spotted. ha haha I can certainly see where Francesca would bring your heart immense love. Hope your Fourth is filled with fun, Sheri. Susan p.s. Thanks so much for your sweet visits and kind words. You are always such a dear friend.

Good evening dearest Sheri!Thank you for coming to my blog; I want to ask you something. Were you able to hear the music? Without the music, the post makes no sense...just checking!

Natalia said...

Happy 4th of July!:)

Jeanie said...

All that wonderful red! Loved the troll doll at the end. It will be a good fourth for you. Seeing those deviled eggs reminds me I was going to make some and forgot to get the mayo. BAck to town!

Sandi said...

"Jess lives in an area where they don't allow fireworks..."

Why don't they allow them?

All the pictures are beautiful.And looks like you will be having a nice Fourth of July. It will be pretty quiet here though there will be some fireworks around. Our little town already had their display.
Have a blessed day..you and your beautiful family!

Marilyn Miller said...

Now that song at the end just made me smile. Thanks!
Hope your day is extra special. I think I would choose the beach over fireworks any day.

Debby said...

Sounds like you had a wonderful 4th. Beautiful photography.

Carola Bartz said...

Fireworks are illegal in our town (except for the big official one), but unfortunately there are people who are above the law and entitled. They probably don't remember anymore that our town was in flames less than two years ago.

Susie said...

Sheri, Isn't that the cutest little song. Maddie sings it so well. I hope you get to enjoy your girls soon. Praying Nel and her family get settle smoothly. That's a beautiful rose just for you. :) Blessings to you my sweet friend, love you, xoxo, Susie
