Happy Independence Day 2025!

 I taught 2 classes this morning in full starts and stripes mode complete with fireworks playlist. Then we had family over for early dinner celebration. Ashton and I prepared the annual Firecracker cake. In the evening we went downtown to listen to. Friend and his band play New Orleans Jazz. We enjoyed nachos and margaritas to cap off a festive day! 

Ashton read us the Declaration of Independence before we ate cake! 

The candles melted fast as it takes a while to read the Declaration! 

Blowing out the candles on the Nation’s bday cake! 

New flavors of Haribo candies! 

Nothing says Independence Day like nachos! Ha!
