Let Freedom Ring!!

Every year I look forward to this weekend spending time in Dana Point with the family. The weather was perfect and we spent the day lounging outside and ended the evening with a BBQ :) My sweet nieces are masters at using whatever we have growing in the backyard to make a beautiful centerpiece for our festive table:)




This amazing flag garland made by my sis in law Allie :) beautiful right? The fantastic Acapillow flag pillows I bought forever ago at Domestic Bliss :)

Cutting up goodies for our dinner of steaks and grilled veggies :)





These pics taken during the "blue hour".
A sincere THANK YOU to all the men and women of our military who make it possible for all of us to enjoy our freedom and our families.

  6. OK, I am late coming to your party! I love your table cloth and pillows. Really, the whole thing looks divine! How funny, we had steaks and grilled veggies on skewers too! I had the majestic Wasatch Mountains in my backyard and you had the ocean? That's America for you! We are all spread out over desert and plain but we all have the same heart.

    I am gathering my info to send you! I am learning so much about my branch of the family doing this! It's fun!
