A Little Red, White & Blue

I (finally) had a chance to pull out my 4th of July decor this weekend.  Not a lot, just enough to put us in the mood.  :)


I don't remember where I got the Uncle Sam figurines but I love them.  I placed one on shelf in the kitchen along with some 4th of July subway art that I printed years ago:

This is the entrance way table.  I bought the 4th of July themed tea lights on clearance at Joanne's.  The clerk told me they are too pretty to burn.  I have to agree -- I won't light them.  They are just too adorable:

It's possible I went overboard with the Red, White and Blue.  I found this in my 4th of July bin.  I'm certain I bought it on clearance years ago.  I don't think I've ever put it out before.  When Sweetheart saw it, he said it looked very "picnic":

Here's some more Uncle Sams:

This is a picture of Me and Sweetheart in San Francisco.  Alcatraz is in the background; it was a very cold and windy day!

I took these photos early this morning when there was plenty of sunlight coming in.  I couldn't use the flash because there was too much light in the house, yet the pictures look dull. ?

 

Looking forward to celebrating Independence Day with Sweetheart!
