Lalee and her 2 peeps from our neighborhood: Kendel and Emma.The Fourth of July for my family means picnics, lots of family and friends, games (usually involving water) and whatever other activities to enjoy the day. In April two of my neighbors and I decided we wanted to have a BBQ / picnic for 4th of July. Although we invited most of the neighbors in our little housing area, we each also invited some of our own friends.
We had Alex's best friend (Jacob) and his family, and our friends Mary, Kevin, and Zach come. We also invited Pete's shop.
We rented a giant water slide type thing that the kids played on ALL weekend long. Lots of fun. We also played water-balloon volleyball, volleyball, horseshoes, etc.
There was a TON of food. It's neat as there is a good variety of cultures in our housing area so we had 'favorite' foods from a lot of different cultures. Very yummy. It was nice to be able to continue some of our family traditions although I definitely felt the void of our family and friends not with us.
