'Merica!

Happy Independence Day week Everyone!

Short and sweet post this week! Just my favorite song for Independence Day and the Pledge of Allegiance!


"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."


Lee Greenwood Proud to be an American-

 If tomorrow all the things were gone
I’d worked for all my life
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife

I’d thank my lucky stars
to be livin here today
‘ Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can’t take that away

And I’m proud to be an American
where at least I know I’m free
And I wont forget the men who died
who gave that right to me

And I gladly stand up
next to you and defend her still today
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea

From Detroit down to Houston
and New York to L.A.
Well there's pride in every American heart
and its time we stand and say

That I’m proud to be an American
where at least I know I’m free
And I wont forget the men who died
who gave that right to me

And I gladly stand up
next to you and defend her still today
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

And I’m proud to be and American
where at least I know I’m free
And I wont forget the men who died
who gave that right to me

And I gladly stand up
next to you and defend her still today
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

This song always takes me back to when I was 8 years old singing it in the one and only play I was actually in. Everyone of all different ages had to dress in red, white and blue and sing this. I also sang baby face in another scene of the play. I know if you really know me you are stuck on the fact that I was IN a play SINGING right? Yeah me too...

 

 

Well everyone, enjoy the fireworks! I won't be able to see any this year but to stay positive I am remembering this time last year I was seeing fireworks almost every night for 6 months straight at Disney World!

See ya next week!
