There was absolutely nothing happening in our area for 4th of July. Our town sucks, they haven’t had a fireworks show here for years. We were supposed to go to Disneyland but things didn’t go as planned and we headed out to see my extended family in Modesto. My grown niece and nephew were going to bbq and be poolside. Sounded waaaaaaaay better than staying home.
I got all packed and looked who snuck in our snacks for the trip……..Shadesward, who the Hale else would it be? AND yes I do have a grape theme in my kitchen.
It’s was f’ing Africa hot over there…….we rolled in at about 11 ‘ish and it was already in the upper 80’s. This Central Coast of Cali girl is used to her cold foggy days! What is all this heat all about!? Later in the day it was in the upper 90’s and the locals said that this was not their normal heat, it should be hotter like in the 100’s.
Sunscreen was slathered o’plenty on the kiddos
Bathing suits and swim shorts were put on
Strawberries were dipped in chocolate
Chicken was marinated
Margaritas were blended
Fireworks were watched from the lawn
Illegal Mexican Fireworks were lit by neighbors
Neighbors had extensive amount of exploding in the air like professionals fireworks
Neighbors were watched being ticketed for said illegal fireworks
It was awesome.
No pictures though.
And I forgot to take Shadesward out to take part of all the 4th of July explosions and drink making. Dang.
Next day, we went to their local mall and I saw a girl with a Team Edward shirt on walking by me and I thought “Ooooh Twifan!!” I said HI all excited and then felt like a loser because she looked at me like I was totally retarded. Can you imagine being like 17 and some old 35 year old woman is smiling at you like Chester the Molester?

Note to self: just because you love Edward and all his Sparklyness, it doesn’t mean everyone knows you like him too. You might scare people, even if you tell them “I like Edward too!” They will still be scared of you and might even run away or call the police on you.
While I was there I had my face Threaded. I’ve wanted to do it forever but never got up the nerve. I was in a different city where nobody knows me so I took advantage. Basically they use two threads together and take all the little hairs off. They did my Eyebrows, upper fug lip and the side burns I was rockin’. Then she says I’ll do your cheeks and chin too. I say, what the heck, why not? It hurt like a mug for a bit, more of a stinging sensation and felt better the next day. David said I went from a fuzzy peach to a smooth nectarine. ::rollseyes:: If your skurred of the whole face deal, do your eyebrows or upper fug lip.....the eyebrows look so clean and tidy after, you will love it!!!
