Monday is the 4th!





I love when the Fourth of July falls on a weekday, it just makes the day feel more special! My husband loves the 4th... it is his favorite holiday. Really!We love the BBQ's, fireworks, ice cream, Freedom and friends. I thought I would share a cute little poem about dear sweet Besty, is she grand!!

Betsy Ross lived on Arch Street near Second,
Her sewing was very,very, fine.
General Washington came down to see her,
To order a brand new flag.
Six white stripes and seven pretty red ones.
Thirteen white stars upon a field of blue;
'Twas the first flag our country ever floated,
Three cheers for the red, white and blue.
Three cheers for the red, white and blue.
Three cheers for the red, white and blue.
'Twas the first flag our country ever floated.
Three cheers for the red, white and blue!
by Barbara J. Ortler

Happy Fourth of July.
