It's Simple Really

We are a simple people.

We enjoy simple pleasures.

Like the pleasure of spending July 4th together.


The pleasure of cheap fans

(our 4th was a scorcher! 96 degrees and no air conditioning!)


The pleasure of taking at least 3, toy filled baths in a day to cool off.


The pleasure of watermelon!


And, ice cream.


The pleasure of our own $5 fireworks show.

The sparklers,


the snaps,


the pleasure (and anticipation)


of seeing the big firework labeled "Purple Pearls"


without a smidgen of purple in it,

but enjoying it anyways.

The pleasure of NOT burning down our tree


with this one.


The pleasure of knowing that this one slept comfortably??


through the whole thing.


God Bless America and the simple pleasures we enjoy!
