My cousin, who is Miss Evart, was in the parade today so of course we went to see it. I have immensely enjoyed partaking in these Fourth of July festivities this year because the last two years I was doing other things. It was weird to have the cousins I’m closest with not there, but it was still good. Plus, parades are just great. I mean, who doesn’t like parades?

We also celebrated my sister’s grad today by my aunt giving her a quilt. It’s a thing she started. She wants to give all of us a quilt when we graduate to remember her by. I love the one I got two years ago, but it ended up being too big for my bed so it’s being saved for when I either get a bigger bed, move out, or get married (consequentially involving the first two criteria), whichever comes first.

My cousin also set off his own fireworks tonight. It was probably more fun to watch him and his friends get super excited (he’s 13) about setting them off than actually watching them go off. But hey, Happy 4th, eh?

Today I saw my lovely friends and it was great to catch up over food. Food is always good, and with people, it’s even better. Then they took me to camp to get to see more people! It was super bitter sweet, and I was kicking myself for not returning. It just felt like home in it’s own special way.

Moving forward, we went to a figure eight race (which was ok) and to the fireworks. They brought in an Eagles tribute band which was pretty sweet, and then who doesn’t like fireworks? They were pretty good (well they always are) so I left wholly satisfied.

Best part? I talked to the program director for camp and he emailed the director of the camp centre I worked at to let them know I was interested in coming back for a bit! I can’t decide how I completely feel about this yet … but I’m expectant.

Now I’m going to try and finish books 4~

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY
