ReplyDeleteI prefer the cookout portion of the 4th of July. Everyone is happy, eating, and gathered closer for good conversations.
ReplyDeleteDefinately my favorite July 4th activity is fireworks with the grandkids. I love summer with the outdoor activities and BBQ'ing. Grilled corn on the cob is the best!

My favorite July 4th activities are getting together with our very large family,eating barbecue and everyone brings their favorite dessserts and of course fireworks and all the awesome picture opps for scrapbooking.
ReplyDeleteFireworks!!
ReplyDeleteWe have no family other than the 5 of us within 13 hours of where we life. Our temps are always close to 100 and there are no cool breezes, there are no firework shows because of high fire threat, so my fav thing to do is stay inside and enjoy the air conditioning. See there is a bright side.
ReplyDeleteSpending a funfilled day with my grandchildren and watching their eyes light up when watching the fireworks!
ReplyDeleteCooking out with family ending the evening watching fireworks.
ReplyDeleteQT with my little fam & enjoying a day of snacks, drinks & BBQ before watching the fireworks with my little ones & seeing the wonder on their faces!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is fireworks with the family!!
ReplyDeleteWhen i was younger it was fireworks, for sure. But I love the BBQ/ family time more now that I'm older. I still enjoy a few fireworks, but I hate how many fires and injuries are caused by them each year. Plus, it seems like a lot of people waste ridiculous amounts of money on them. I guess I'm a party pooper that way, lol.
ReplyDeleteI also feel bad for the service men and women who have flashbacks when fireworks go all night. :-(
My favorite activity is waving sparklers around - and hanging out with family.
ReplyDeleteMy parents were married on July 4th, so my all time favorite 4th of July activity has always been celebrating their anniversary!
ReplyDeleteI love to go to the Park to see all of the 4th of July activities, have a picnic and watch the fireworks!!
ReplyDelete(That Doodlebug is too darn Cute) Thanks.
I love,love being with my family and one of the things we like to do when we can is to go to the BYU campus for the Stadium of Fire programs. They are awesome and some of the times we even get a fly by with some jet planes. The fireworks are the best anywhere and we always have a ton of pictures to scrapbook afterward.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun collection! Fireworks with the kids...gathering with friends and family to celebrate...that is what I love doing on the 4th of July.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite activity is watching fireworks!
ReplyDeleteI love watching the fireworks....since it only happens once a year I find it quite exciting still at this age.
ReplyDeleteWe can see the local fieworks from our neighbor's yard. My son and I take a blanket and watch from there and we avoid the crazy traffic!

WE love our hometown parade and fireworks show.
ReplyDeleteThe fireworks are my favorite! Thanks for a great giveaway!!

I love a parade! My MIL lives right on the parade route for a fairly large suburban parade (it usually lasts about an hour and a half!) We arrive before the streets are closed off and grandma and grandpa, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews all hang out and set up the perfect viewing spot. With easy access to cold drinks, snacks, bathrooms and a place to cool off it couldn't be more perfect!
ReplyDeleteOur tradition is to have a family BBQ, swimming for the kids and then fireworks after! Love the 4th of July!
ReplyDeleteHi, My favorite July 4th activities include celebrating my youngest sister's birthday. Yes, she's our little firecracker...LOL Also, fireworks with our family at the football field in our little town. A great time with family and seeing friends as well.
ReplyDeleteSharon
Family get togethers are the best!
ReplyDeleteCooking out...watching fireworks on TV from all over the US (Capital 4th, Boston, Atlanta, and where ever else I can find when surfing). I can also go out in my yard and see the higher fire works from several of the surrounding cities (all the noise drives my dog crazy).
ReplyDeleteFireworks, of course!! Love this line - such bold, vibrant reds and blues.
ReplyDeleteI love the annual 4th of July parade and fireworks! The pictures make the best scrapbooking project! Thank you for the great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteDonna
My family and our horses join the 4th of July Parade. My crafty mind creates some unique decorations for our group! Parade watchers love it when I paint the horses hooves red, white and blue - flag style! I take great pictures to scrapbook - this Doodlebug line will fit in perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI love sitting by the campfire with my family. Telling stories and making smores
ReplyDeleteThis year I will enjoy making a festive patriotic banner to send to my daughter who is living away from home. I love using the colors red, white and blue. The combination makes me happy!

We don't celebrate July 4th, we celebrate July 1st, being Canada Day. Our tradition is going into town to partake in the activities--swimming, food tasting contests, magic shows,Strawberry social (YUM!) etc...all the works, with fireworks being done at night. It's always a great time!
ReplyDeleteLthe best thing about the 4th is having a BBQ with my grandkids and watching the fireworks together.
ReplyDeleteI love having the family over for our annual 4th of July cookout!
ReplyDeleteMy birthday is July 2nd, so it's like I get to celebrate through the 4th. Our family typically has vacation during this time, so family time on vacation is definitely my favorite!!!
