4th of July!

On an ordinary Wednesday, Bryan went to work and the kids were home with me during their school holidays between terms 2 and 3 of the school year.  It's winter here and the weather outside is cold and rainy, with a high of 55....so it is very hard to believe it is the 4th of July!  It doesn't even seem like July because of the weather - the seasons are off for us and it truly feels like November around here.  We were lucky to enjoy the 4th with our American friends and Irish friends in our neighborhood.  We had good ole American hot dogs for dinner and the kids lit sparklers at the end of the night.  Happy Birthday America! I truly am so proud to be an American and so very blessed, lucky and thankful to call America our home.
