Happy Fourth of July

Happy Fourth of July everyone! I was a bit bummed to not be with friends at Huntington Beach this year or family bbqs, but the small town of Brewster did show us a good time. We started early with a Bike-a-thon fundraiser for my school I'll be teaching at this fall. Then we went swimming for a bit with Hawkins and Sam followed by a much needed nap. Brewster has its own 4th of July parade which suprisingly had a good turn out. I would say maybe the whole town was there. My school was in the parade as well so I got to walk in it. Grant walked with us and helped the kids pass out candy. After the 15 minutes it lasted, we headed up to the Gebbers' home for a bbq and a backyard baseball game. Unfortunately Grant's team lost to Johnny and Hawkins, but I'm pretty sure they were ahead most of the game.

I made jello!

And of course we were visited by Bambi...or Bambette I should say.
