I can hardly believe that July is already here!! With the holiday coming up, my family is looking forward to having out-of-town guests for the long weekend. Of course, we will definitely cook out and enjoy the beautiful weather. In North Alabama, the past few days have been much cooler than previous weeks, and there is no chance of rain. Woohoo!
We plan to buy barbecue pork from Whitt's (a local treat), grill hamburgers and hot dogs, and whip up some homemade ice cream. Any other great ideas out there for easy summer recipes that go great with grilling?
What would the holiday be without a fireworks show? Point Mallard is a nearby park that always hosts a grand display of fireworks for the fourth. Some years we go over to the park and other years we just watch from our front porch. If our guests agree, this year we may skip the crowds and watch from the patio.
Wishing you all a blessed and safe holiday as you enjoy the great outdoors!!

We had lots of family over for the 4th as well. We had barbecue pork, hamburgers, and hotdogs. I also made some homemade ice cream. The ice cream did not turn out as well as I would have liked. It was good anyway!
ReplyDeleteHi Kay,
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you and your family enjoyed the 4th of July holiday! We had a good time as well! The one thing I did not have was my aunt and uncles' homemade ice cream. They are going to have to make up for that soon. We did enjoy fireworks and a spectacular fireworks show too.
