Labor day is a day to celebrate and honor workers, or "Laborers", that contribute to the well-being of our country.

The United States currently has the largest economy in the world with a GDP of over $25 Trillion.
As of 2023, there are over 33 Million total small businesses. (This equates to 99.9% of all businesses in the US.)
Small Businesses contributed 55% of all job creations during 2013 and 2023.

Cheers to the small business owner and a hoorah to employees of the small businesses! You guys all truly make this country run. (We like those of you that work for big companies and your jobs are important to, I just have a soft spot for the small business!)

Happy Labor Day! Here is to a longer weekend! 🇺🇸

On July 4th, 1776, our founding fathers celebrated the unanimous adoption of the Declaration of Independence. This Declaration of Independence announced our separation from Great Britain.

Some of the reasons the original colonies wanted to separate from Great Britain include:

Taxation - What’s the point in paying high taxes when we didn’t have a say as to what they were paying for?
British Laws - Some British Laws were believed to violate their rights.
Citizen Treatment - Nobody wants to feel like a “second-class” citizen, do they?

On this Independence Day, may we all celebrate and remember the freedoms that were, have been, and continue to be won. Some of which, I’d argue, are slowly diminishing. (I can’t say I would agree that our current tax system is any better than it was under British rule in 1776… 😂) 🇺🇸

One night at dinner, and I wrote a list of all the places we had been. I am grateful for her travel bug because it has pushed us to see so many incredible places and experience so many awesome places and cultures, just the two of us and with our family. Truth be told, I am content just hanging out at home.

Here's to looking back at all of the wonderful places we have been together, and many more destinations to come! 🥂
