4th of July

This year our day started with a Patriotic Pancake Breakfast held at the church. It was about and hour, and after eating we watched a video and sang a few patriotic songs. A relaxing start to a special day.

Earlier in the week we were invited to Jeremy and Megan's for a 4th of July party. Due to the fact that they have a pool and the girls play softball together, it was a no brainer. The party started at 2 but most people didn't arrive until closer to 3. It was a fun afternoon. No pressure. Just a bunch of friends getting together and having a good time. I even learned a new game... I think it's called RCL or maybe it's CRL. Whatever it's called it requires nothing more than knowing your right and left. That's it. It was easy and enjoyable.

There was a ton of food. I made a peaches and cream no-bake cheesecake and a lemon bundt cake and put strawberries, raspberries and blueberries in the center. Both desserts were a hit and everyone said I could come to any of their future parties. Woo Hoo. I'm moving up in the world.

Later in the evening I had to take Emile to Dallastown to meet up with Rachel J. She's a police officer with Baltimore County and was taking Em on patrol that night. When I got back to York the fire works were already going at the fairgrounds. I found a spot behind Giant and took some pics. I could see really well and did just fine. About 15 minutes later Megan dropped Brie off. They had watched the fire works from the Middle School. It was a nice day to celebrate the independence of our nation.
