4th of July!! A day to celebrate America’s birthday with friends, family and SHOOTING!!

I had so much fun shooting today… A couple of us went to a range in Prior Lake and shot through 2 courses of clay pigeons. Super fun for my first time! I ended at 40%, which I didn’t think was so bad.

After taking a short nap, Diohgé and I went to the Mulhair’s for a great evening with a ton of new friends. And of course some old ones too…

Fireworks!!

"Big PaCorn!" - Maggie

We were able to sneak out tonight for a bit to catch the fireworks. Reynoldsburg Fireworks are just down the street from our house… so a little walk! I was surprised at the lack of people, but that was okay with me since we got some great vantage points.

4th of July is always a fun Holiday. It’s one where you can always see people coming together to enjoy a really cool show. It’s the annual symbol of our freedom to do what we want every day.

Dad had a rough day today. He was VERY frustrated that he couldn’t get up and walk. I think that we often take for granted the freedoms that we do have — those that come from a Constitution or those that come from just being able to move, breathe, live. When one is taken away, like walking has been for dad, we aren’t prepared to give it up. It was rough for us to see him dealing with this… and will continue to be. Please continue to pray for his release… this earthbound body isn’t the freedom that my dad wants, or the one that he deserves.
