I hope everyone has enjoyed the Independence Day celebrations. We have so much to be thankful for in our independent nation. And, yet my heart is so heavy as we realize the freedoms that we are so slowly losing. Actually it isn't even slow...it is happening very fast! So fast, that as citizens I hope we wake up and start doing something about this!! What can we do?....well, we can make our voices and computers be heard.....calling and e-mailing our Representatives and Senators reminding them that they work for us and they can be fired.....to ask them to listen to the people and protect our freedom! We can attend local Tea Parties so others can see our presences.
On this day we are reminded of the many service men and women who have fought and died for our freedom.....never ever let this be in vain. My nephew, Mark, is presently stationed in Alsamabad, Pakistan and I ask for prayers concerning his safety. He has previously served 3 tours in Iraq and will be turning in his retirement papers in August.....pray for his safe return.
On the home front.....we had a nice day of celebration with Shari and family. BBQ at our home and then watching fireworks.
Fireworks are galore in Tucson, as every Country Club and Resort puts on elaborate displays plus the City of Tucson has a large display. My choice is the Tucson Golf and Country Club's spectacular display.....when in town we make a point to park where we have an awesome view and the boys love it. It is also in our part of town, so we don't have to go far.
Our Resort Park also has many activities.....people are coming and going the entire day.
Make it a point to be heard concerning our freedoms.....please don't sit back and take our freedom for granted.
Blessings to all......Arizona Gramma
