Since Jacob LOVES American Flags, we decided to celebrate Flag Day. June 14th is the day the American Flag was adopted as a symbol of the United States. Let's just say that when you check out Flag books from the library, there's lots of information about flags that can be learned! :)
|
To start the day, we had pancakes with red white and blue sprinkles and an American Flag toothpick. Oh how I WISHED we'd gotten a video when he saw his breakfast this morning...oh well. It was pure joy! |
|
Here's Jacob saying, "Dude, How Cool!" This is the new phrase, except it sounds more like "du" instead of dude. |
|
We even "decorated" the table with his flags. More like, I just stuck the flags into a vase with rocks in it so they would stand up. :) But he LOVED it! And that's all that matters! |
|
He wore his USA shirt and took his American Flag everywhere we went today. We even had an "American" lunch of burgers and fries at Five Guys. |
|
We made Flag Day cupcakes and gave them out to some friends. Jacob did all the sprinkles and all the flags on the cupcakes. So fun! |
|
Such a proud boy with his Flag cupcakes! |
So, for those of you that always wished you could celebrate Flag Day...this is your post!
Love the sweetness on Jacob's face! He looks so happy! Happy Flag Day:)
ReplyDeleteI thought of Jacob today because I knew it was Flag day! We celebrated a mans life who served in the Army and lived to be almost 90. It was a beautiful celebration. Everything was decorated red white and blue. Very fitting! Love your Smile Jacob! I miss you, love Gjo!
