Recently I found out that one side of my family came to America in the early 1600s. That blows me away! Especially since I have a particular love for the Colonial Period. And to know that my ancestors were here well before the Revolutionary War and they make up the first colonists is pretty amazing. My goal is to join the Daughters of the American Revolution before the end of 2012. If anyone is a member and has any info, please let me know how I can go about joining!
Now, here's a little red, white, and blue love to celebrate the 4th!

Wow, that's so amazing. I need to do some better family digging! Wishing you a wonderful 4th!
I so want to copy that outfit!!!
So great learning about your family history--that's a great goal to have. Loving that red, white and blue cake.
Whenever I hear about the Daughters of the American Revolution I instantly think of Gilmore Girls :) That would be so cool to join. That cake looks so fun! Happy 4th of July!!
