We stayed at home and had a nice day. Went to church at night and then watched the fireworks.

Thanks for the chance!

Katherine July 7, 2012 at 12:40 pm

As the country was celebrating our independence- my boyfriend and I celebrated our two year anniversary! Nothing quite like a huge firework show to make you feel special! We live in Buford, GA, so we spend the day making a great picnic- I made beer baked ribs and all the fixings- and took it down to our local park to eat, drink, and watch fireworks from swings on the playground. It was a quite 4th, but special nonetheless!

1604
Sheryl "Wilderness Wife" Thompson July 7, 2012 at 12:56 pm

Just a quiet 4th with just Bill and I. We spent the day by the pool and the grilled out for supper – steaks, mac salad, grilled basil tomatoes…. Nothing special but topped off the day by watching the Boston Pops Specila on TV. Up here in the North Maine Woods it would be a 100 mile round trip to see live fireworks so we opted for “remote” fireworks on TV.

1605
Kristin July 7, 2012 at 1:09 pm

We had a burger cookout with family and watched the fireworks that were being set off around the neighborhood! So fun!

1606
Nanette July 7, 2012 at 1:11 pm

I live in a wonderful village in Upstate New York that hosts an entire day of family fun. The morning starts with a big parade and ends at dusk with fabulous fireworks. After the last boom boom, Mommies and Daddies carry sticky toddlers, with nodding heads, home to dream of ice cream and Bouncy Houses. The grownups eat the last pieces of the homemade pie then round up the older kids and everyone piles in their cars and, with a honk of the horn, the day is done. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.

1607
withak July 7, 2012 at 1:13 pm

We spent the 4th at home with family and friends. The grill caught on fire and caused a lot of excitment, not to mention an appearance of the hose and fire extinguisher. The fire charred all the food that was on the grill, but we had plenty of side dishes to compensate. It was dinner and a show that we won’t soon forget!

1608
Kelly July 7, 2012 at 1:18 pm

Quiet day with the family. It was lovely!

1609
Deborah Hooper July 7, 2012 at 1:25 pm

Been watching your travels. Some beautiful pictures.
We celebrate the 4th with family and friends with the traditional cookout and potluck side dishes and desserts. Lots of red, white and blue decorations and new red, white and blue outfits for the little ones.

Camping! Every year we head out to Asheville, North Carolina. There we white water raft, repell, zipline, hike, etc.

1611
Laura July 7, 2012 at 1:33 pm

My hubby and I spent a quiet day at home reflecting on how much we love and appreciate this great country of America!!! We also spent time in prayer on behalf of those serving in our military, for my father who is in the hospital and for our daughter who moved out of the house and 5 hours away the day before making us “empty nesters.” It was an emotional day!

1612
AshleyS July 7, 2012 at 1:33 pm

My husband & I spent all day doing laundry in preparation for our beach vacation this week

1615
Cyndie July 7, 2012 at 1:39 pm

I tried a couple of new recipes. I’m searching for the best lemon tartlet…haven’t found it yet. We barbecued with our good friends and neighbors.

1616
Brenda Campbell July 7, 2012 at 1:55 pm

What a fun challenge as a contest entry!

We celebrated the 4th of July with friends and family. Grilled chicken and salmon. Because we are all trying to eat healthier, I made a salad with quinoa (a first for me) and it was delish! We ate lots of veggies and fruit – watermelon and cherries. We had planned to swim in the pool but it rained all day. We did not complain because here in Arizona we NEED rain badly. There was a fantastic fireworks display in our town this year because last year our mountains were on fire and so the fireworks were cancelled due to extremely high fire hazard. This year they used all of last years and this years too.

The 4th of July is one of our favorite holidays! What a great way to celebrate our great nation and the freedom it provides!

1617
Amanda VL July 7, 2012 at 1:59 pm

We have a 1 month old lil boy that we got to introduce around to all our friends at a bar-b-q, concert, and fireworks show :0)

1619
Felicia July 7, 2012 at 2:04 pm

This year we were low-key. We took the kids out with my parents to grab some BBQ. I must not have been the only one who didn’t feel like grilling out b/c the place was packed! We finished our meals with lemon ice-box pie and chocolate cream pie. YUM! Thanks for the chance!!!!

1620
Gabrielle July 7, 2012 at 2:11 pm

I went grocery shopping and didn’t see any fireworks. Lol

1621
CC July 7, 2012 at 2:16 pm

Family was over for a late lunch/early dinner of ribs. Younger generation headed out to watch fireworks. (You heard about our Fireworks Fail here in San Diego, I’m sure!) Glad I didn’t make the effort to get down to the Bay this year.

1622
Julia Lockhart July 7, 2012 at 2:21 pm

The week of july 4th I was at Church Camp with 13 kids (including my son!)… No fireworks:-( but TONS of fun!!!

Colorado banned fireworks, so we celebrated by having extended family over & taking them to a dinosaur museum & having one of the most delicious BBQ’s I’ve ever had. Oh…so…good!

1629
Jennifer July 7, 2012 at 2:53 pm

My extended family and I spend a quiet fourth eating lunch together, holding my two month old baby boy, and swimming. We had a late night on the third at the hospital awaiting the arrival of my new baby cousin so lunch on the fourth was very simple. My mother and I decided mid afternoon to make a welcome home wreath for my cousin’s door for when she brought baby Jackson home from the hospital and then we played with sparklers until my three year old could not hold his eyes open anymore. It was a simple family filled day.

1630
Becky July 7, 2012 at 2:56 pm

I celebrated in the mountains of North Carolina with a picnic on the porch with neighbors.

1631
Glori Winders July 7, 2012 at 2:59 pm

I had my whole family together for the 4th. My daughter got home from college a day before and my son was home all week. Very Rare! It was a nice relaxing time.

1632
shaina longstreet July 7, 2012 at 3:01 pm

I slept in, but my husband had to work. He drives garbage truck. But once he was off we fired up the barbecue and had friends over for steaks. It was a lovely day.

1633
Ana July 7, 2012 at 3:20 pm

My hubby and I took the day off from planning and getting things ready to move to go to the beach. We had a blast and enjoyed Shrimp Basket. There is nothing better than crab claws. :)

1634
DixieG July 7, 2012 at 3:29 pm

1635
Marlou G July 7, 2012 at 3:38 pm

My family spent the 4th of July at my mom’s cabin on the lake. The temp for the day was around 1oo degrees, so we spent most of the day in the water cooling off. My husband did some grilling early in the evening and then finished the day watching the fireworks.

1636
Brandy Nance July 7, 2012 at 3:41 pm

I hope you had a wonderful 4th. I had the two married kids & their spouces & Lilly the grandbaby came to visit. It was so much fun to have all the kids home. Their were 10 of us in all here at the house. We went swimming, had a BBQ, playd cards & done our best to stay cool. One day this week it was 107 here. We are on burn ban so no fireworks. :( The younger kids were a little upset but they understood.

1637
Pamela Tadlock July 7, 2012 at 3:56 pm

Every July 4th our family celebrates with food, water fun and fireworks at Crystal Lake Fl. Just north of Panama City Fl. it’s a tradition we look forward to every year. this year was no exception, we had a great time!

1638
Kristen M. July 7, 2012 at 3:58 pm

We celebrated the 4th of July at home with a family bbq and marshmallows around the fire pit. My kids are still in school (a year round track) for one more weeks so it’s hard to get in the whole groove of packing up for a day – and preparing for a late night of fireworks. We did manage to see a few fireworks from our backyard.

1639
Glenda July 7, 2012 at 4:05 pm

We had a family barbeque, and saw the musical, Aladdin, at Tuacahn Center for the Arts here in Southern Utah.

1640

1646
marion July 7, 2012 at 4:41 pm

We had a great 4th! It’s been extremely hot here. The heat index was around 105! Too hot to be outside! We are in a drought and the city has been asking for everyone to be very careful. We don’t go out often because of the size of our family. We wanted to treat them. First we took the kids to a matinee movie- SPIDERMAN! We had been given a gift card so we took the kids out to eat afterwards. We came home in time to watch a few fireworks in the neighborhood. It was entertaining, fun and cool! Hope you had a great 4th too.

1647
Abbie July 7, 2012 at 4:49 pm

I took my toddler son to his first big fireworks display. Let’s just say it was a bang-up time. About 3 minutes into the program there was a BiG boom! And then, smoke…the field had caught on fire!!! Everyone had to evaquate. Very crazy, very stressful, very thankful. No one got hurt. When my little man gets bigger and wants to hear childhood stories about himself. I’m sure this will be on the top of his list. Mommy, tell me the story of the Fourth of July where we had to out run the forest fire.

1648
Tina July 7, 2012 at 5:07 pm

I had to work on the 4th. We had a small gathering for a local soldier that had died. It was a full day.

1649
Tracy July 7, 2012 at 5:10 pm

1650
Elizabeth July 7, 2012 at 5:23 pm

The 4th is my birthday so my hubby and I spent some time together and then watched Thunder on the Mountain in Birmingham :)

I was just talking the other week about really wanting one of these!

1651
Elizabeth July 7, 2012 at 5:29 pm

I celebrated the 4th here in Chicago by celebrating my sister’s birthday! She ‘born on the Fourth of July’, just like the song “Yankee Doodle”! Our town starts the day with a 5K race (we sisters came in at 30 minutes on the dot) and then cool off by watching the traditional Independence Day parade from our parent’s front porch. It really is a holiday-out-of-the-movies for us : absolutely the best!!

1652
Elizabeth July 7, 2012 at 5:30 pm

Hello from South Carolina! I spent the day at home with family and enjoyed a great BBQ supper. It was too hot to watch the fireworks outside so we watched them on TV. I’d love to win the Cameo…I’ve wanted one for a long time.

1655
julia July 7, 2012 at 5:39 pm

Our family has been traveling a ton this summer, so we stayed home and enjoyed a quiet day off! We got a well needed rainstorm that cooled us off out here in AZ, so when we put our kids to bed my husband and I went up on the roof to watch the local fireworks! Perfect!

1656
Marjorie July 7, 2012 at 5:40 pm

Squeezed in a little time at the pool before a huge thunderstorm rolled in. But, luckily the weather cleared just in time for fireworks in downtown Kingsport, TN with my fiance and some great friends.

1657

Brittany July 7, 2012 at 5:56 pm

Hello From Texas!
Our fourth of July was pretty low-key this year. My 18 month old son is finally big enough to go to the fireworks shows. We ate dinner with the family and watched the fireworks! He absolutely loved them! There is just something about a child’s face when it lights up from excitement! LOVE the blog! <3

1660

1662
Jessie July 7, 2012 at 6:09 pm

I spent the entire day with my history buff husband watching a wonderful five-part cable series on the rise to prominence of President John Adams, played to perfection by Paul Giamatti. It painted a vivid portrait of the great minds and flawed characters who shaped the destiny of this beautiful country. Both humbling and inspiring all at once.

1663
Chantelle July 7, 2012 at 6:24 pm

I celebrated my sister’s birthday!

1671
Susan Ardoin July 7, 2012 at 7:30 pm

We spent a quiet day at home and watched the fireworks on the National Mall on TV since most area fireworks were cancelled because of all the power outages in our DC Metro area from the previous week’s “derecho” weather event! Whew, that was a mouthful!
Thanks for the opportunity!
Susan.

1672
Missy July 7, 2012 at 7:41 pm

I planned a pancake breakfast and bike parade for our church in the morning and then my family and a bunch of friends celebrated in our military town with bands, food, and fireworks. It was the best!

1673
Jennifer July 7, 2012 at 7:49 pm

Spent the 4th with a my sick little 3 year old. Poor guy had a double ear infection, so we didn’t make it out to see any fireworks, though. Still had a great day. My husband grilled, and we enjoyed the day relaxing and snuggling up with our little one and watching Finding Nemo, Up, followed by Finding Nemo Again, and again, and again. ha! It was great just to enjoy a quiet day with family. Hope everyone else had a great 4th! And good luck to whoever wins! :)

1677
Lori July 7, 2012 at 8:10 pm

A relaxing day at home with the hubby & no kids!
Dinner out, fireworks & cake roll from Baskin Robbins for dessert, what could be better.

1678
Marilyn July 7, 2012 at 8:27 pm

Love the 4th! This year, with five young children in the house we stayed home and celebrated with friends. They brought fireworks which terrified my 2 year old, enthralled my five month old twins and scared us all when they managed to pull a miniature San Diego stunt! Memories….love them!

1679
Wendy July 7, 2012 at 8:28 pm

Found your website through The Pioneer Woman, can already tell that it will be one of my faves!!

1680
Carmen July 7, 2012 at 8:37 pm

It was so hot we really didn’t do much. Our toddler was still wide awake at 9pm, so we loaded her up in the car and went to the local fireworks. Was a great day!

1681
Lori July 7, 2012 at 8:39 pm

I spent the day with my husband, son and two close friends. BBQ, played games, caught up and relaxed! Climbed up to the roof, got comfy and sat back to watch the neighborhood fireworks.
It was a great day!

1682
Lara July 7, 2012 at 8:43 pm

1699
Kaila July 7, 2012 at 9:31 pm

I spend my 4th of July with some of my great friends and family. We had lots of home-style cooking (buffet style). All of the kids played in the pool while the adults watched and floated around on rafts! It was over all a very hot but good time.

1700
Lisa July 7, 2012 at 9:38 pm

We had family over and had a cookout (Hamburgers and Peach Cobbler). Then we shot fireworks once it got dark. Later we went to the Red, White and Boom Festival to see the fireworks. We park on the roof of a nearby parking garage. Everyone brings chairs and it’s a lot of fun! It was a great 4th of July!

1701
Diana July 7, 2012 at 9:40 pm

Due to a state wide burn ban our plans were postponed. Our church puts on the most amazing fireworks display and we hand out pop corn, water, and snocones to the community! So, this year we spent the day building table tops for my classroom instead. Fun…huh?!?!?!
