As noisy as they are a peaceful moment was watching fireworks. The music (patriotic) that accompanied them was great and allowed us to think back on why we celebrate this day.
So far, my most peaceful moment was this morning. I woke up early (6:15) and got up to make the coffee. While it was brewing, I sat and made a mental list of all I wanted to do and what I needed to do today so I had a game plan for the day.

Most peaceful moment... probably napping on the couch at my in-laws, listening to my family chattering in the kitchen, churning ice cream on the deck, all with the buzz of anticipation for an evening of fireworks
Most peaceful moment was just sitting on a bench in my garden enjoying the weather, the birds, and watching the wind blow the leaves.
My peaceful moment was watching the Detroit symphony orchestra play before the fireworks!
Watching hummingbirds enjoy the flowers while hanging out with my niece while her parents did yard work.
Sitting in a rocking chair, rocking my newborn granddaughter (until she began to cry!)
Early morning, sitting in the garden with a cup of coffee!
Not much in the way of peaceful moments here this weekend - this very moment may be the most peaceful, catching up on blogs!
Early morning, before everyone else is up. 24Tangent "at" gmail "dot" com
What a lovely question! My most peaceful moment was sitting in the yard after dark watching fireflies - nature's fireworks! Thanks for the generous giveaway! I love batiks!
I walk every morning that is my peaceful start to the day.
most peaceful moment of the holiday weekend is right now! husband is watching soccer, son is playing legos, daughter is dancing in the living room, dog has his chew toy, and I get a few minutes of peace!

My peaceful moments come in the early hours. My family and i run on different sleep shifts. I get up early normally and my sleep cycle did not change much, so i have had many peaceful hours before the rest of the house awakens.
15Reading the paper and drinking a cup of coffee first thing in the morning before anyone is up is the most peaceful moment of the day for me.
We spread a blanket on the ground for the fireworks on the 4th. The kids were so relaxed watching the ducks swim by that they went to sleep while waiting for the fireworks to start.
Just now I was in a grove of trees on our lot, watching our chickens bustle about, as our dogs wandered about, tails wagging. Very, very serene. Now, on to housework, renewed.
The most peaceful moment was an early walk along the inlet trail with my dog. Best way to start the day1
Watching from the porch swing
Early morning, making coffee and having the kitchen to myself before the rest of the family woke up.
Out in the garden deadheading flowers, pulling a few weeds and listening to the hum of a bee.
Napping in a big chair with the grand baby ;)
Bedtime
Early morning, reading my book. Nobody up. Birds and dogs quiet. Beautiful warm day.
I enjoyed watching fireworks with my hubby and closest friends after a nice dinner!
My husband and I spent some time sitting on our front porch early Friday before company came over. Thanks for the fun.
Today is my birthday and the most relaxing was my alone time with my x-stitch this morning. :)

Walking westward my male miniature schnauzer, in awe of the setting sun. He loves sunsets as much as I.
As strange as it may sound, sitting with my family and our dogs at the end of a fun and exhausting day and enjoying the fireworks show. Just being there together, sitting, relaxing, talking, watching the sky light up. I loved it!
Sitting on my porch swing with my two dogs, watching the fireflies! Very peaceful indeed. carolann427@aol.com
Natalie, we just returned from an Alaskan trip to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and I have to tell you that The Tracey Arm Fjord was the most serene place in this world. It looks like God was still creating the earth there. I will never forget this the rest of my life
My peaceful moment was a lovely walk along the land of the house I'm cat sitting, listening to the wind blow through the bamboo was very calming and soothing.
The most peaceful moment of this holiday weekend was when I was prepping veggies for the fajitas. It was just a relaxing and smooth time for me in the kitchen and that rarely happens...lol
I loved just being able to sit on our back deck and read a book. It was the end of a hectic week.
The most peaceful moments were spent sitting on the beach, doing nothing but catching some rays! I need to slow down and do that more often. Thanks for the chance to win.
Sitting on the back porch, looking at the yard, flowers and birds, was my most peaceful moment
