Fourth of July and Pizza!



Luke's first Fourth of July was spent on the farm.  We were lucky enough to have my parents come to celebrate along with my grandparents, sister, and nephew from Ottumwa.  We spent the day lounging around and eating...a lot.  We had brunch and dinner within four hours because my sister was driving my grandparents home that evening.  Although it was a quick trip, it was a special afternoon and I'm so happy I was able to spend some time with my super sweet Grandma and Grandpa.  

The brunch theme was pizza.  I made a breakfast pizza and fruit flag pizza for the holiday.  They are both easy recipes that can be made in a very, very short amount of time.  The breakfast pizza was, um, not so healthy, but the fruit pizza kind of made up for it...

Hope you had a happy Fourth!
