Celebrate Freedom 22

Yesterday's high in Dallas was 97 with a heat index of 99-100 with nothing but sun and blue skies.  This is what is know as a summer cool front because the actual temp was under 100, but if your like me and you grew up here you know this as just a normal summer day!  But, what's crazy is when you choose to spend all day outside (and not in water) and that's exactly what we did.

We spent the day/night at Southfork Ranch, yes, the same ranch that the tv show Dallas is center around with THOUSANDS of other people at a free outdoors Christian concert.  It was awesome!  We went the day with some of our best friends their two daughters, my brother, sister-in-law and some other friends.  We inhaled water, ate ice cream, sandwiches, funnel cakes, drank more water, ate some crazy looking fried potates and some yummy watermellon that we snuck in. We jamed with the bands and sang praises to our GOD.  Would could possibly be better than that.....

We worshiped our God by singing and dancing to Him with THOUSANDS of strangers. All the bands playing where leading Christian artists;  Kutless, Jars of Clay, Sanctus Real, Amy Grant, Sidewalk Prophets, Leeland, For King & Country, Hawk Nelson and so many more!!!  At the end of the night when you just couldn't stand it anymore - FIREWORKS.

As far as I'm concerned it's the best way to start the 4th of July celebrations.  Celebrating our God who created this great country.  God Bless America.

Enjoy the pictures


Shhhh, sneaking water into our chair bags!
