In Honor Of The Red, White, And Blue

~ Independence Day, July 4, Monday Morning Blooms, Summer, Tablescapes

Happy Monday sweet friends! I can hardly believe tomorrow is July 4th. How will you be celebrating our country’s 247th birthday?

“For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭13‬ ‭

Will you be celebrating Independence Day by firing up the grill, making a freezer of home-made ice cream, or attending your city’s fireworks show? I think we will be doing all
three!

I love using our flag’s colors, the red, white, and blue for tablesettings, not only for the special holidays, but all summer long!READ MORE
