Celebrating 4^th of July is a time of the year we look forward to making memories with our family and friends. Here are 13 fun ideas we thought you would enjoy.

Picnic

Grab your friends and family for a picnic. Picnics are an easy way to kickback and make some memories. All you need is a simple meal and a football to throw around.

Grill Out

Make the most of this weather and invite your friends and family over for a grill out with all the fixins.

Decorate Your Home

Make no stops to decorate everything and what could be more fun than making the 4^th of July decorations yourself?

Fireworks

Fireworks are the perfect tradition to every 4^th of July. So find a local show if you aren’t going to light your own.

Evening Campfire

There is no better way to end the day than to enjoy some s’mores around a campfire. If you are feeling adventurous try adding Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups or Kit Kat’s!

Festive Treats

Bake a red, white, and blue treat and show your patriotic spirit.

Patriotic Beverages

Blend up some red, white, and blue smoothies or slushies for a fun cold treat.

Festive Dinner

Pull out all the stops: It’s America’s birthday so go all out on a fabulous dinner!

4^th of July Parade

Attend your local 4^th of July parade. Meet up with your friends and wear your favorite red, white or blue outfit.

Baseball Game

What could be better than America’s favorite pastime? Look and see if you can catch a Greenville Drive game or make a day to go see the Atlanta Braves.

History Buff?

There is not a better time of the year to introduce your children to Washington D.C. and our nation’s history. You can also visit a local museum.

Make a Splash

Gather all of your friends for a pool party that will be sure to cool everyone down on a hot summer day, including your furry babies.

Nearest Lake

Take a dip in the nearest lake. There is nothing like spending a relaxing day floating in the water and drinking an ice cold sweet tea.
