Today is the forth of July! Go 'Merica! One thing that this holiday does is make me incredibly homesick and very nostalgic of the way I was raised. How was i raised you ask.......Southern Fried Baby! There is nothing that a southern girl loves more than a day full of bbq, themed outfits, family, flip flops, and fireworks. Its the honest truth. My sweet florida boy told me he had to work all day and when in fact he requested off weeks ago, because he knows I love being surprised! We are going to have a whole day of fun and fireworks! I swear to god I heart him so much! (I feel like this post is going to be raped by exclamation points so get used to it!) Even though we are going to be having so much fun, I'm still going to miss my family..............but I found this website on tumblr
http://southernbellesecrets.tumblr.com/archive and thought i would share some of my favorites, they made me a little bit less homesick and mamma i know if your reading this you will get a kick out of it too.

Hey Chile, you make me homesick for the South and I am still in it! By the way after our conversation I went straight to the kitchen and whipped up some homemade hush puppies in an iron skillet. While I was at it, I put some of the chopped onion in the baked beans. I put a Winn-Dixie roasted chicken in a pot with bbq sauce. Yum! We got a watermelon cooling over the air vent. The only thing missing is our gang of kids and a dip in Turkey Creek. Actually, I wouldn't go near that place today for a bundle of coins. Have a wonderful "Independence Day". God shine your Grace on us and Bless America again! Lv, M
We had a traditional 4th, right down to part where poeple's fingers almost got blown off. Thank God that none of the kids will have to spend their lives holding their cigarettes with their thumb and pinky like Great-grand pappy did. Of course, I hope they don't smoke at all, but I hope they at least have all their fingers if they do. - I'm glad that D surprised you! How fun!
