4th of July Traditions

Tomorrow is one of my favorite holidays.. the 4th of July! For as long as I can remember my family has gotten together for a big cook out. We would play games like volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole and even some yard baseball. The night would always end with my dad, grandpa, and uncle lighting up an impressive display of fireworks!

This year is the first year that we aren't having that big party. Fireworks are banned in my home county due to the lack of rain and with the holiday falling on a Wednesday the adults still have to go to work Thursday.

I am left with finding something else to do.. Starting a new tradition. In just under two months I'll be married and it is important for  us to start family traditions of our own. And while I will definitely miss heading to my grandma's house for the big cook out, it will be neat to start something myself.

Do you have any neat traditions for this summer holiday? If you don't, think about starting one. It is the perfect holiday to spend all day outside.

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!
