Thomas Rhett’s wife, Lauren, loves to go all out for holidays, so it’s no surprise their family always has a pretty festive 4th of July. “My girls love to put red, white and blue face paint on. Lauren usually puts ‘em in, like, an American flag ballerina outfit, and they love watching fireworks. They love grilling hot dogs and making s’mores.”

Normally, Thomas and Lauren would have about 150 people down at their farm to celebrate 4th of July, but with the Covid-19 pandemic still requiring social distancing, he says, “This year it probably is gonna look like we’re gonna have a few less people hanging out with us, but we do love to hang at 4th of July and love getting to just celebrate that good American tradition.”

If you want to be inspired this 4th of July, head over to YouTube and search for Thomas’ latest song, “Be A Light,” and watch some of the incredible videos people from all walks of life have created using his song, which highlight a lot of the goodness and good people in our country.
