"I love my land America
With blue skies big and wide.
I love my land America
With seas on either side.
The prairie grass grows tall and green.
The wheat is amber gold.
The rivers run from mountain streams
where the Stars and Stripes unfold.
I love my land America!
And as long as she is good
The Lord will bless America
With love and brotherhood."
Happy Birthday to our beautiful country! We spent the day in Washington D.C. The crowds on the Metro were large but we braved them to get to the National Zoo where we saw these beautiful creatures.


Then we, along with everyone else in DC, crowded onto the National Mall to find a spot to watch fireworks.
You'll notice we sat in front of the White House and could see the fun party the people there were having.
Dallin had fun with the camera. He found some sharpshooters on many buildings...
And took this silly picture:
It was so fun...the only thing that could have made the trip better was if Monica had been with us. But she was in Michigan for week with Gammy having a special time alone.
Afterwards, we went back to the Valencias' home and lit up the sparklers...
What a wonderful day! What a wonderful country we live in!
