Friday’s Family Friendly Finds {July 4, 2014 edition} |

Happy birthday, USA!

We hope you are having a great Fourth of July, and are able to spend some time with people you love. Don’t forget to take a moment to consider all the wonderful things that have been done to help the United States be the nation she is. Certainly, we have our problems, but I’m thankful to be a citizen of this country.

Next week, there will be five posts as usual, but the Friday post will not be our usual family links. We have a special post ready for you for next Friday (as well as every other day next week).

Now, on to this week’s family links.

The Week’s Finds

19 Zero-Technology Road Trip Games {Of the Hearth}

What I’ve Learned about Motherhood {We are THAT Family}
