In the year of 1776 That paper was decreed - They were tired of oppression And wanted to be freed They wrote a Declaration So the whole world would see - This was, "the home of the brave And the land of the free" And the Star-Spangled banner in triumph doth wave o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
I am so proud to be called an American. I am so grateful for my freedom and for those who are serving us in the military to keep us free. For all those who gave their lives and all they have for us. We are truly blessed to have this great nation and everything we have. I am grateful for our government which I truly believe to be a perfect government (when run correctly and for the people) and inspired by God. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
This year we celebrated this wonderful holiday with my brother Cameron. Friday we saw a movie in the Park and had fun at the booths and with our glow-in-the-dark pink glasses. Saturday we went to Zions and saw the awe-inspiring "mountains majesty" and all the beautiful things it had to offer. We hiked all 3 Emerald Pools and the Weeping Rock. It was so fun sharing that with Cam. Monday we had fun at the pet store (which Cam is in love with). They have so many fun animals. We also watched fireworks and just had a fun day. Wednesday we went to the park for a renaissance fair. It was so fun seeing all the belly dancers, gypsy's, fire dancers, acrobats, and the camel. It was so neat watching all the talented dancers and meet a bunch of really interesting people. There was so much going on and lots of stuff to look at and buy. It was such a great week and we really loved having Cam here to celebrate with us!
