Happy Birthday America!

Interesting weekend so far.

Thursday night - PF Changs and Symphony in the park (Charlotte symphony orchestra and fireworks [PACKED! so many peeps])

Friday - in bed most of the day. YUCK. some kinda stomach bug thats going around. Luckily its only a 24 hr deal. Angelle and leah have had it. and some neighbors.

Friday night - went to a farm that our neighbors (larsens) church owns. It has a little stage and we played music, launched fireworks, and roasted marshmallows. FUN!

Saturday - washed cars, slip 'n slided, worked on my skate rail, went to Sams (got leah a life jacket for boating), tried some samples: Tequila lime wings, baby yogurt, apple pie, key lime bundt cake, cookie..MMM! free is great. Watched Premonition and ate free papa johns! free free free! I wouldnt recommend premonition. Acting was good, i wasnt a fan of the ending.

This morning, we did some wii sports fitness age...i got 24..angelle got.....73!!! ha ha. Now granted, she didnt do any practice games, and she hasnt played in awhile, but it was funny cuz at first the wii psyched me out and told me i got 38, and she made fun of me! then it said 'na, you really got 24'. i didnt know the wii had such a sense of humor. So when angelle got 73, she was hoping to see the wii wit return, but no such luck. the wii thinks shes 73! :) sorry babe! train harder!

Happy birthday America and Happy America to everyone! Quick shout out to everyone that makes this country great: citizens who give their lives so we can drink Starbucks and play wii and be any religion we want...doctors, firefighters, teachers, the guys who wrote the declaration of independence and the constitution...we may complain about the government and taxes and 'high' gas prices...but we dont live in fear of being bombed daily..we worry about who is going on to the next round of Hells Kitchen, So you think you can dance, or Trading Babies. I love the worries we have in this country, and seriously thank you everyone who allows me to not worry about some stuff that other people in the world have to worry about.

You know, I agree. Thank you to the framers of the Constitution. However, I wish they would have written it in plain English and been more clear on what they intended because I'm a little tired of sitting in this library trying to interpret the words of people who lived two hundred years ago.
