Today was an absolutely amazing Fourth of July! From having my entire family with me all day, to having our friends John Wayne Walding (a true American Hero you can read about at www.johnwaynewalding.com) and his wife Amy Walding and their four kids with us, to meeting George Washington, to going to Stadium of Fire where the band One Republic performed, to an incredible firework show, and finally to a crazy fun street dance…it was a truly incredible day and I felt so blessed to be an American, a wife, a mother, a grandmother, and to be surrounded by my family and our great friends today.  The day was so amazing, in fact, that I feel it would be best described with pictures and videos (if viewing these on a cell phone you may have to turn it sideways to see the full pics):
