Happy Birthday, America!

Well, today I decided I will be spending July 4, 2010 (aka 4 July 2010) in Boston. Watching the Boston Pops and the fireworks under the beautiful night sky. I actually really want to go to college in Boston now. I should tell Mr. Schneider, my favorite college counselor!
Anyways, back to this year. I woke up to find a beautiful rain-less day outside, which has been rare for the past three months. To your left is a picture of Thomas in the sun for the first time this summer, probably screaming about how it feels like someone has lit him on fire. Which is typical when Thomas the ghost is in the sun.
I put on a nice red white and blue outfit and headed to my mom's friend's cookout.
They had wicked good food. And the cutest little dog! Look it's me touching a dog! Which is rare because I hate dogs. Anyways, after we got home from those festivities we headed over to the Slavin's house for some more festivities. We had homemade chocolate chip ice cream and we played with some fireworks. Played is used very loosely here. Anyways, Jessica heard Aashish had been on a safari and decided it would be a great idea to make this video:

We had some good laughs. We then returned home and after a long talk from mom about not making faces at people while I'm driving, we watched the fireworks over Boston on channel 4. They were amazing. It's things like this that make me glad that I'm an American. It's pretty great here. Anyways, I'm heading off to bed. Later.
