This year was a much different 4th of July than usual. Ever since I met Landon way back in 1995, I have been going to Indiana for the 4th of July every summer. There was only one year when I was in college that I couldn't go due to summer school. We decided not to go this year since Logan's basketball camp was the week before with a few day gap until the fourth. We didn't want to stay that long so we just decided to spend the holiday here in Sparta.
This was the first time I have ever decorated any for the 4th of July. It was exciting:)
I have wanted to make a flag or patriotic cake for years, but I am never at home. It is hard to cook in someone else's kitchen, so I was very excited to make a flag cake! I told my cousin, Michaela, of my excitement over the cake and she thought I was a dork. haha.
We had a small little cookout with some friends. We set up a kickball croquet set.
I am terrible at taking pictures when it is dark.
Homemade ice cream and cake!
It was a lovely evening! I'm very thankful for our freedoms!
