Happy Independence Day!

I am enjoying my favorite time of year in my hometown in the White Mountains of Arizona. The air is cool and fresh and the population of this small town is going through the annual 4th of July boom. 
To make things even more fun, I also celebrated my 10 year high school reunion! I always wanted to show up to my class reunion looking better than when I was 18. Thin, fit, successful, rich, with super powers.
In reality, I'm 15 pounds heavier than normal because I just had a baby, my body is stretched and wrinkled, and my successful career consists of changing diapers and wiping up spit up (It's not glamorous but I love it!) 
 The reunion that I have dreaded for the last 10 years turned out to be not so bad. I actually had a great time seeing old friends that I have lost contact with, and others that I "see" on facebook everyday.  I had to drag my hubby came with me, and since he graduated from the same small high school (my graduating class was only about 170 students) he met up with some of his long lost buddies too. Good times.


All I'm trying to say is that I love this small town and the people who live here.



Monday is Independence Day and since I am a t-shirt making kind of woman I decided to throw together some new 4th of July shirts for my older boys. I thought you might like to see what my kids will be sporting to enjoy the festivities of this weekend.




Land of the Free
Because of the Brave 

(It's much easier to read in person, I promise.)
The eagle and stars are printed with dye remover and the words are in white and silver ink.

I added a star silhouette on the backside.

Enjoy your 4th of July Celebrations!

I'm feel so blessed to be a citizen of such spectacular country!

God Bless the USA!
