Happy Fourth of July!!!!!!

Today, is the fourth of July. And I am at my Gramma's house to celebrate the fireworks, the red white and blue cupcakes (made by my Gramma) and the parade (with candy!). Right now my Grampa is cooking chicken, my uncle Steve is reading the Crystal newspaper, my gramma is watching me type my blog (hi gramma!) my mom and dad went to the Crystal grocery store to pick up a watermelon and I am typing on my blog! (yes you guessed correctly!) My cousins Lydia, and Natalie just left to go to their cousins house on Sand Lake to celebrate fourth of July there. The crazy thing is though, that we celebrate our fourth of July with our family (10 people) and they celebrate fourth of July with their family (80 people literally) Tonight we are going to sit on my gramma and grampa's house to watch the fireworks that people let off around the lake. (and yes I'm sorry but sometimes illegal ones) They are sooooo spectacular and one year while we were watching them we noticed when they were done that the northern lights were out. That would be pretty cool if they were red white and blue fireworks! I guess that year the northern lights were celebrating Christmas because they were green and red. My cousin Lydia and I have been wanting the neighbors to offer us to ride on their speed boat all day to go tubing. They haven't offered yet so hopefully they will later... Well Happy Fourth of July and as for the other side of my family, beware the Taylor's will be entering Rochester tomorrow... dun dun duuuuun.
