Love for our Liberties

Watched Katelyn "fiddle" to open an early morning patriotic program in Layton on Independence Day.  She was the cutest one with a violin up on stage, all decked out in red, white and blue.  The speaker was short but powerful.  I pray for our Republic............this the greatest nation on the face of the earth, but taken for granted more often than not. 

From there, we went to Kaysville to watch the parade which Katelyn also was in ( her dance group ).....it was wonderful to see how Korean War and Vietnam vets were honored and applauded for as they went by.  The weather was made to order for me...............overcast, cool breeze, absolutely perfect to watch a parade in!!!

I love to watch little grandchildren instinctively put their hand over their heart as the pledge of allegiance is said and our Nation's Flag goes by.   Happy Birthday USA - May God Bless This Nation and help us remember what is offered to us as citizens of the United States of America.
