It's not the 4th... and I'm not at Grandma's watching the world's most charming small town parade and enjoying Call family brunch in the cool Evergreen backyard. I did get to enjoy a family dinner last week, though, so I'm slightly appeased.
Anna asked if we would be going to our local parade but when I explained they don't throw gobs of candy like they do at the East Millcreek parade she seemed fine with missing it. I'm not sure if they didn't cancel it anyway because of rain. The rain this week has cooled things down, although today the humidity is up with a vengeance and something that blew in stuffed my head up.
I feel icky. So I sent John with the girls to see that other Avatar movie, since I went with them to Karate Kid yesterday -- it was good. Particularly entertaining to watch Will Smith expressions play across son Jaden's face. This version's a lot harsher than the original so I don't recommend it for younger kids. Anna (8) was disturbed by the fighting.
I have been bumming at home with a book. There has been talk of go-carting later if the weather allows or we may go look at a used car, but I think I'll hold off on the additional excitement until Monday since it is a holiday weekend.
The girls are looking forward to snow cones after the movie. I'm content to hibernate in the A/C. I'm hoping there's a frozen lemonade bar out in the garage.
Big times at the Cliff house!

We went to the D. Oak parade this morning and there were gobs of candy thrown. It's Halloween all over again!
You were missed at the East Millcreek festivities. And also at Cul De Sac Of Fire--which, I must say, was pretty good this year. Well over 100 people at it's peak. Wishing you were here!
