What are your plans for this holiday weekend?

Hoo are You Tuesday!

Its the 4th of July Questions this week!!!

1. Do you decorate for the 4th of July?

I am starting to get my home holiday decor going and the 4th is going to be big one day!!!

2. Do you you buy fireworks for the 4th of July?

No but I love to go watch them:) In a town about 20 min away a dentist puts on the BEST show every year!!! IT IS THE BEST!! Soo I am way excited for Saturday!!

3. How do you celebrate the 4th of July?

Growing up my grandma put on a huge community performance called "Our  Country 'Tis of Thee' with 100-150 kids! It was a VERY big deal. There would be a community flag raising ceremony in the morning complete with donuts, the performance that night and homemade root beer floats (the root beer was homemade!) and a late night at my grandparents. Now that I have moved away and such I always make sure we still have root beer floats and I sing the songs from the program throughout the day- I actually hope to direct this production here in Wyoming for Memorial Day next year!

4. Do you have a family member that is serving our country?

Not right now, but my grandpa was retired military and was the director of China Lake Navel Base so I am very supportive of our troops and send them all the encouragement and love - to their families too!!

5. Do you dress in red, white, or blue on the fourth?

OF COURSE!!! I make the whole family- it is the least we can do :)

Father’s Day Card

* UPDATE- 'Checks' has been changed to 'Cheeks'!! Thanks for catching it! The pics have the former but the download is fixed!! 

Father’s Day is upon us!!

A familiar song to LDS parents is “I am so glad when Daddy Comes Home- glad as I can be!”

I took this simple song and created a Father’s Day card- perfect for anyone!!!

What do you think?

Here it is open

It reads:

I’m so glad when DADDY comes home
Glad as I can be
CLAP my hands and
SHOUT for joy
then climb upon his knee
put my arms around his neck
HUG him tight like this
pat his checks and give him what?

A GREAT BIG KISS!!

you can click here to download the pieces!

I also made this one- same poem just different look

This one you can add the hands or just glue to some colored cardstock or construction paper

then add your personal touch inside!

Lots of fun right??
