the fourth of july is one of my favorite holidays. i love the fireworks, food, and spending time with family and friends. we were really sad that we couldn't make it to stephen's stewart family reunion at their ranch in wyoming, but we definitely had a good time here in berkeley.
We started the day off by going to the fourth of july parade in alameda. Well, just me, the stephens did not join us because daddy stephen didn't think baby stephen would enjoy it. So I tagged along with the Gray's. I love doing small-towny things like going to parades. some of my favorites from the parade include a giant shopping cart with people in it, mexican cowboys on horses, and sikh dancers/sword fighters??. I love that it showcased all the diversity in the bay area.
After the parade we went over to the Reeder's house for a bbq. we had delicious food and then baby stephen dipped into the kiddie pool and then had a great time in the sandbox.
We headed over to the Call's roof after the bbq and watched fireworks go off all across the bay area. we could see them in oakland, san francisco, sausalito, richmond, and berkeley.
Although we didnt get to spend the fourth with family, we are really lucky to have such great friends here in the bay area!
