Greetings to all and Happy Independence Day, America! We had the opportunity to join some dear friends at their house for their annual "Fourth of July Breakfast" - here in our "neck of the woods" it is too hot to have a barbecue in the afternoon or evening! We ate a wonderful pancake breakfast (kudos to Mrs. Goff for her selection of chocolate chips, syrup, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, strawberries, and blueberries!), talked and laughed, and the kiddos decorated their bikes with streamers, ribbons and flags for our own little "bike parade". It was a fun morning, and we thank the Lord for the opportunity to live in America, the land of the free and home of the brave. God bless America!!!
