July 4th

Hello Friends,
I hope everyone who celebrated had a happy & safe holiday! Our weather here in NC has not been as  hot as it has been in previous years so far this summer.We have been getting a lot of rain,too.The forecast calls for showers in the afternoon every day this week.It would be nice if we didn't have any triple digit weather this year.


I will start my pics with some July 4th decor around the house.



Flags in a vintage white vase .The beadbroad in my kitchen came from a 100 year old country church.

Reproductions of vintage post cards.






Next pics are from a flower bouquet.






 Here is a country store I pass by very often.The flag is painted on the side of the building & Is there all year round.


Beautiful sky pic.

Fireworks

Bokeh Fireworks



I will leave you with this wonderful verse from the Bible:
"You shall have knowledge of what is true and that shall make you free."John 8:32

 I am joining : Blue Monday,Macro Monday 2,I Heart Monday,
Mandarin Orange Monday,Monday Mellow Yellows
Ruby Tuesday 2, Our World Tuesday
Outdoor Wednesday,Rednesday
Skywatch Friday,Orange You Glad It's Friday
Love & Prayers,
~Myrna

    Glad you had a nice holiday. It seems like there is record rainfall everywhere these days. I hope it rains just enough to keep you cool but not too much to make floods. Have a great week!
