Forth of July Kristy

Fourth of July is a special holiday for Americans. It is a day where they celebrate their freedom from the United Kingdom. There are many ways which American people show their Joy in this glorious day such as watching a parade, cooking a lot food, and fire works.
For Instance, the parade is a nice gathering place were people stand up in both side of the street to watch it. The parade is a big combination of colors, art, and people performing different kind of music and dances while their walking. Watching the Fourth of July’s parade became my family tradition since we moved to United States of America.
In addition, I organize a big dinner to my family and friends. My husband does the barbecue while I bake a nice cake and decorated with the American flag frosting. My friend Amal always brings Lebanese salads “fatouch” and her famous kafta with vegetables dish. My kids and her kids play all day long. I like holidays because during this days you hear the laughter of kids and smell the juicy mouth watery food that we eat joy.
In conclusion, the fourth of July in very social events where people gather to have fun and celebrate. I like it very much because I associate it with a loud patriotic music and a the happiness in the air that everybody enjoys that day. The American people deserve to celebrate this day because they worked so hard to get their independence from the British as Franklin D. Roosevelt said “I n the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved.”

    I'll score this right away! Watch your capitalization! Also, "a parade" after 'for instance' in paragraph 2.
