Moments #24: A 4th of July Tradition: Blurry Firework Pictures!

Posted on July 4, 2025 by Dazzling Erin

Is there anything better than blurry pictures of fireworks on the 4th of July?

I don’t know but I do know that I always enjoy taking them. For me, they’re as much a part of the 4th as visiting with family and cooking out. In honor of the 4th, here are some of my favorite blurry fireworks pictures:

Moments #23: The 4th of July In My Town

Posted on July 4, 2025 by Dazzling Erin

During the summer, from May to July, one of our local churches plants flags across the town and hangs ribbons on the street signs. It may not seem like much but it’s something that I look forward to every year. It’s reminder that we’re more than just a location. We’re a community.

Happy Independence Day!

This is my favorite holiday, Today is a day when we think about the past, consider the present, and have hope for the future. America has been through a lot in its history. It’s been through a lot in just my lifetime! Some people like to get down on America but there’s no other country that I would rather live in. This is my country and I love it.
