The Fourth of July usually makes you think of fireworks, hot dogs, outdoor barbecues and spending time on the water. But why is the Fourth of July actually a glorious holiday for our nation? Let’s dive into it!
Since 1776, America has celebrated Independence Day, recognizing and remembering the day that American independence was birthed. On July 4th, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was officially adopted, granting the thirteen American colonies the right to become independent from Great Britain.
However, the Fourth of July has not always been a national holiday where businesses close and employees are given the day off. Independence Day became recognized as a federal holiday beginning in 1870, allowing Americans to take the day off to celebrate our country and embrace patriotism.
Because of its rich history of American heritage, the Fourth of July symbolizes a time where friends and family alike can gather and spend valuable time celebrating the freedom of the United States together. Simply, it is that unites American citizens, allowing us to reflect on the great sacrifices made for our country to prosper.
This 4th of July, we hope that you enjoy some really good food (maybe some boiled peanuts or one of the delicious peanut recipes below), soak up quality time with family and friends, slow down a little, and celebrate the USA!
