Fourth of July is my favorite holiday. I shamelessly {with no shame} cater to all that is a stereotypical milspouse. I love my Air Force gear, I have photos and patriotic garb all over my home, my bedroom is Americana with a giant framed picture of an Air Force plane and of the famous “Times Square Kiss” from WWII. So naturally for the 4th we go all out. I come by it honestly though, as the fourth was always a favorite holiday around my home growing up. As kids we posed by the American flag on our front porch, and wore matching shirts for years. A tradition I usually try to continue my family. Living here in DC has been really fun, especially on the fourth. Last year we went into the city and celebrated the holiday by sitting on the Mall right in front of the Washington Monument. This year, we’ll be celebrating by experiencing ‘A Capitol Fourth!’
Luckily we can celebrate in style with a watch party kit made just for the event.
