"... TO GIVE UNTO THEM BEAUTY FOR ASHES, THE OIL OF JOY FOR MOURNING, THE GARMENT OF PRAISE FOR THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS; THAT THEY MIGHT BE CALLED TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS,THE PLANTING OF THE LORD, THAT HE MIGHT BE GLORIFIED." ISAIAH 61:3

THOSE people, I'm just sayin'. . .


The Fourth of July is just around the corner and we LOVE it!!!

Bring on the BBQs and fireworks! The uncle sam hats and the flag shirts!

Can you honestly tell me that 'Purple mountains' and 'fruited plains' doesn't bring a tear to your eye?

From Lee Greenwood - God bless the USA,
 to Toby Keith - We'll put a boot in your . . .
ask anyone who knows us and they'll tell 'ya, the Smittys are salute-their-country-crazy!

We love the pomp and circumstance, the parades and poems - all the trappings of the day!
And under all that stars and stripes face paint, you'll find a true and abiding love for this nation.



We know we are blessed to be a part of this country.




Yep, we are those people!

We proudly say the pledge with hand to heart. We fly our flag 365 days a year.
We do not consider it unreasonable to wait until the National Anthem is over before munching on nachos or gabbing on the phone. Seriously!

So, prep the grills and chill the watermelons! The big day's coming!




Come on . . . you know you're one of us!

I'm just sayin'.
