Happy Fourth of July!!!!

Canonsburg Fourth of July Parade

We had a great day at the Canonsburg Fourth of July Celebration Parade! Watching the Synergy Dancers was fantastic! The weather was perfect and we enjoyed thanking the military for their service.  For our picnic we are swimming, making crafts, and eating!  The food is so fabulous this year.  We are having hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad, cole slaw, cucumbers and onions, All American cherry pie, SunButter cupcakes, and star Rice Krispie treats!  Did I say we are eating??

Thank you to www.somewhatsimple.com and The Baker Upstairs for this awesome cupcake recipe! It is a huge hit and we had fun making them as a family! Thank you! God Bless!

Lots of Veterans were in the parade.  It brought tears to our eyes.  My picture was taken by the Observer Reporter newspaper from Washington, Pennsylvania.  I was so proud to be in the newspaper!

Thank you to all veterans for your service!

We wish you the best Fourth of July! God Bless America! 

Still celebrating!

Love is in the air! 

We had a wonderful Valentine's dinner yesterday. Complete with this new wonderful tea from Republic of Tea. This was the perfect tea to have with our chocolate cupcakes!  We buy our Republic of Tea from our local Giant Eagle Market District in Bethel Park.
