Happy 4th of July!

I love the 4th of July and the chance to really celebrate America and all the amazing blessings, freedoms, and priviledges we have as Americans.

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the Mangum family reunion in Washington DC (one of my absolute favorite places to visit!) 2 summers ago that remind me of how great this country is...


The Mangum cousins in front of the White House...well as close as we could get to it!


Jake konked out at the WWII Memorial, in front of the Texas side of course!


Trevor in front of the Washington Monument.


Our family at the Lincoln Memorial, overlooking the National Mall and the Washington Monument.

Hayley lying on the cool marble floor of the Lincoln Memorial, under the Gettysburg Address.
It had hit 100 degrees that day in DC and after climbing those stairs, I wished I could have found the coolest spot in the building like Hayley did!

Happy 4th of July!
