# 26 If you could name or give a theme to this month of July, what would it be? Would it be the Month of Summer, Vacation, Graduation, or Wedding maybe? Or would it be the Month of Football or Soccer since Euro 2016 final matches will be in this month? Perhaps you have other terms to describe how do you feel about this month? Mine would be the Month of Love... I'm excited about a special silver anniversary this month and the entire July seems to be filled with love...

I hope you have a lovely silver wedding - congratulations. July has no special meaning for me - it's just summer.

Since the US is celebrating their Independence on Monday, I would say the theme would be Independence, Freedom, and such things like that. There are also several birthdays this month, my older son's is first on the 13th, mine next on the 19th, then my great granddaughters both have birthdays on the 25th and 28th. So it's Celebration month with so much going on.

Yes, busy month of Celebration for you! Your July seems to be similar to my January - starts with New Year followed by 2 of my sons' birthdays, then my mom's in the middle of the month, and toward the end of the month would be my best friend's birthday and Australia Day which is also celebrated with grand fireworks displays...

@sishy7 I think we all have months that are overloaded. You have a lot going on in January. I used to have a birthday in January, but with my mother's passing this past October, January doesn't have anything going on any longer.

Yeah, it's the start of a new school year there, isn't it? The kids got us a pretty and delicious chocolate cake - it's huge too, largest one I've ever seen and it barely fit in my fridge even after I took a shelf out to make room for the box... I also received a beautiful flower arrangement full of different shades of pink roses from my husband and he took me out to a really nice dinner just the two of us...

@hereandthere Oh, a new Thai restaurant just opened up nearby so we decided to try it out. The place was really nice because everything was newly renovated. And the food was not bad either - we enjoyed the dinner...

@sishy7 cake is always welcome and enjoyable -- until it's time to figure out how to store it without crushing it, which of course falls on you whatever the occasion is. ice cream is so much easier! different shades of pink is awesome! i'm curious what cuisine it was because i know you're foodies.

It is my birth month! And here in the Philippines, it is nutrition month, where people specially children are encouraged to eat healthy foods; whole foods.

Happy New Month! Awwww - a month of love - how sweet ! Is it early, mid, or the end of July? It sounds like a very special month and I hope all the festivities are filled with love! I guess I'd call it the mid-summer month. No school, hot, the 4th, hot, Hubby and brother in law's birthdays, hot, parent's anniversary, oh - and it's hot .

@sishy7 - Could have said barbecue and beaches and chatting with you here at myLot; but figured that came under the umbrella of “pursuit of happiness”.

I'd call it New Beginnings Month. It's a time for love, new careers, new trips, or anything you want to make a new beginning with.

For me summer and vacation But yours sound definitely more romantic. "In theory marriages are made in Heaven but for all other practical purposes, a twenty five year long marriage is made by the tireless efforts of a beautiful couple.." Happy Anniversary.
