stars and stripes

I love. love. love. love. July 4th! Such a fun day. I will be in London this year, and I will miss the time spent on my parents' Lake Tuscaloosa dock, but I have promised myself that every person that passes me will know I'm American (not only through my embarrassing accent, either).  Here are some wonderful things that scream "AMERICAAAA"

Hope you all have a wonderful and safe holiday next week! Soak up the sun for me!
