Happy Birthday America!!!

What a wonderful weekend we had celebrating the 4th of July with family and friends!!!!  So the weekend started off with a cute Jackson story which fits perfectly into this wonderful Holiday weekend..........on our drive to Jupiter Jackson asked me what that big flag was flying on a flagpole as we drove on I-4 and I said it's the American flag to which he replied "Happy Birthday America!!" Priceless! I think he learned that at camp this week since the theme was "Let's Celebrate the USA!" So naturally all weekend at Mimi and Pops house Jackson would shout "Happy Birthday America" when he saw an American flag or saw fireworks, which everyone just loved!

It was a fabulous weekend filled with lots of fun activities including boat trips, swimming in the pool, paddle boarding and rope swinging at sand mountain, fishing, Jackson's 1st tube ride, fireworks, and an awesome barbeque with family.

So Happy Birthday America and as the Zac Brown Band sings...Thank God for my life, for the stars and stripes, may freedom forever fly... let it ring, salute the ones who died, the ones that give their lives so we don't have to sacrifice all the things we love.........
