We were in Alabama for 4th of July weekend. It was like traveling to a whole different world! Our adventures included a watermelon-eating contest, patriotic golf-cart parade, a family wedding, and visiting the historic house where my great grandfather and grandmother were born and grew up! (If you'd like to see photos, visit instagram.com/SweetDivergence).

Now it's your turn, what did you do to celebrate America's Independence? And did you get in any creative time?
