Happy 4th of July!

July 5, 2013 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 4 Comments

 One flag, one land, one heart, one hand, One Nation evermore!

~Oliver Wendell Holmes~

Good morning! Happy 4th of July! 

Do you have some wonderful plans? A parade, a concert, a trip to the beach, some tasty treats at a barbecue?

We are off to see the smiling and proud faces of the little ones who have decorated their bikes and wagons, going on a leisurely boat ride(weather permitting) and then going to a barbeque where I will be eating some of my favorite foods.  

We will be skipping the local fireworks in favor of our favorite celebration, A Capitol 4th on PBS. If it is going to be raining in your area I highly recommend it, great music, fabulous stories and wonderful fireworks.

I hope that have a beautiful day spent with family and friends. Be safe and enjoy!

P.S: If you need a delicious treat to take to a party or would just like for yourself, these Hershey’s Chocolate Cupcake with Chocolate Frosting are delicious! You can find them at Once Upon A Chocolate Life.

    A happy Fourth of July to our American neighbours!

    The ambassador up here does tend to have a gathering to mark the day, as I recall.
