Happy July!!


Happy July!  I love the 4th of July celebrations that take place in Nashville.  I feel as though the spirit of Americana takes place during this weekend.  We had the opportunity to go to a community block party.  Every family brings a dish for the potluck, there's a parade for the children, the mayor of Nashville speaks, a sing-a-long, and the Declaration of Independence is read. You can feel the excitement in the air and I just had to sit back and take it all in. In the evening, we grilled burgers and had a smaller, still festive celebration with a few close friends. It was a long day but greatly enjoyed.

Jackson is not really drinking soda!
