Happy 4th of July


The 4th of July has always been my favorite holiday(except for Christmas of course). I love everything about it! I've never missed a Rupert parade in my entire life. And I have to say that this year's was a step up from the last few...ther were actually some floats! I think we're moving back in the right direction with the quality of the parade!!!!:) I LOVE fireworks...LOVE LOVE LOVE them!!!!! They make me sooo happy! Marc always makes fun of me because I always point out which one is my favorite, and i end up pointing out every single one that is shot up:) The best part about it is that we get to see three firework shows every year. The Rupert square one, Malta has an awesome show the night before the 4th each year, and of course Harmans on the 4th. Cant go wrong with any of those. And then it just wouldnt be the 4th if we didnt end up on the river sometime. All in all it was a great three day party!!!!!


For my birthday on the 2nd, Marc put his pride in a bag and went to Twilight with me the night before:) I liked it, didnt love it, but i'm sure i'll see it again:) Then on my acutall birthday was when Malta was having there firework show, so we went out and ate at their yummy restaurant, went on a bike ride with my new birthday present!! Marc got me a new mountain bike and i am so excited!!!! and then enjoyed the firework show. It was a great day!!!

Here are some pictures from the eventful weekend........
