The 4th of July is one of our favorite holidays. Every year we pack up a bunch of food, join up with some friends, and watch fireworks under the giant Texas sky at a local park. It’s SO fun.
My husband’s birthday is the next day, so, it’s also a great excuse for a party. Here are some great 4th of July party ideas in case you’re planning a 4th of July party, too!
