Happy Birthday AMERICA!!!

Most of you know that I come from a military family. I would say that my family is very patriotic. If you were to see the inside of our hearts, I would imagine it would look much like the Grondels Family Room. He he he... that's clever eh?!?! ;0) Anyways, we went swimming and had a BBQ and did the whole fire works thing. Becky and Hector took Gabby for the weekend. (I really didn't know what to do with myself) So, I planned my weekend. Lee and I went to our ward Temple night. Went to a friends wedding reception. Went to Panda with Keli and Ken, then we went to a movie. Sunday I went to church. It was fast Sunday. I'm so thankful that I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. My Sunday's are always so uplifting and I know that my Heavenly Father knows me. The prayers in the Temple, and in church on Sunday were wonderful. Just knowing that people pray for our military and their families. To know how thankful they are for the freedoms that we have and for the men and women who continue to protect our freedom, is just so amazingly wonderful to me. So here's to you America... Happy Birthday!!! May we always have courageous soldiers and patriotic civilians to support the men and women who protect their freedom!!!
