Since the 4th of July is right around the corner, I’m all about patriotic decor, grilling, and remembering all the men and women that served so that we could enjoy freedom. 

To remember my family members who served and to honor our troops today, I make sure and display the American Flag on special holidays, including Memorial Day and the 4th of July. Did you know there’s a right (and wrong) way to properly display the flag?
