What is more American than apple pie--especially on the 4th of July? Since consumer fireworks were banned this year (too many fires!), I had to get creative in expressing my patriotism. The pie was also a late birthday gift for my mom as our oven was broken back then, and I hadn't gotten around to making one until now.

Notice how quickly it started to disappear!

Yes, there was a light pole in the middle of our view of the fireworks.

Saturday my mom baked a late blueberry birthday pie for Elizabeth. You notice a trend in our family? I'm not a big blueberry fan, but this one was yummy!

All in all it was a great weekend. God granted us a day of relief and there was no smoke smell on the 4th of July! It's back now, but I haven't given up hope of rain. Please keep praying about our fires!

You captured the pies Delishness well! BTW, the pole looks like it is ON FIRE in your pic of the fire works ;)
