Thursday we celebrated the 4th of July… British style. I must confess I always feel a little odd celebrating America’s freedom from England. While living in England. But hey… we still had a good time.

We invited our team over for a barbecue! We also invited our neighbours, and were slightly surprised that they came! So it was an evening of somewhat American foods, fellowship, and roasted marshmallows.

Leon and I also shot off some fireworks that he had thought to buy last November on Guy Fawkes Night. But somehow fireworks aren’t that exciting when you only have 5 and no one else in the neighbourhood is shooting them off either… Ah, well. We’re allowed to be patriotic at least one night of the year. :)

 

How did you celebrate the 4th?

    I love how everyone’s wearing sweaters! That’s not usually part of our celebration here in Tennessee!

      LOL too true, Rachel! Too bad our warm weather this week couldn’t have come last week for the 4th… :)
