It could be simply celebrating summer that makes the Fourth of July one of my favorite holidays. But I think I love it because it’s a celebration of so many things– the birth of a nation, freedom, patriotism, battles won and lost, American life, good times, and food!
This year, I’ve been especially reminded of the importance of patriotism – thanks to my 7 year old son. Earlier this month when he insisted we visit the original Star Spangled Banner in Washington, D.C., I knew we would need to celebrate the Fourth in a big way. That need sent me straight to the web for ideas. So here are a few to spark your imagination. Happy Birthday America!

The light and airy feeling of this invitation by lukecommasara at esty is fun and casual... just like the holiday!

Thanks for the great ideas. You saved me time in web research! My baby is one on the 4th so I'm trying to decide what to do for his party:-)
