Happy Independence Day from our family to yours.
Today we celebrate 250 years of Independence, and this year the 4th of July holds extra significance for us: it's also the due date for our 8th child. In preparation, our family has prayed the rosary together every evening as a 54-day novena for a safe and holy birth.
Two years ago on this day (first photo) we were expecting our 7th. Here he is now (second photo), our son Jack, getting ready to welcome his baby brother.
We're a small, family-run Catholic shop, and days like today remind us how much we have to be grateful for: the freedom to worship, to raise our children in the faith, and to run this business together. I'm proud to still serve in the Army National Guard, and that freedom is never something we take for granted.
However you're spending the Fourth, with family, at a cookout, or quietly at home, we're glad to share our faith and our country with you. Thank you for letting us be a small part of your family's faith.
Wishing you and yours a happy and blessed Independence Day.
