FUCK YEAH AMERICA

First and foremost, Happy Birthday Sarah!

So, yesterday was Fuck Yeah America Day. Also called Independence Day and The Fourth of July. Which is dumb.

But before I can tell you about THAT, I have to tell you about THIS.

Saturday: Soccer Day. 9:00 CST- Germany v Argentina. 1:30 CST- Spain v Paraguay.

So, we all showed up at Macey's house at about 8:30. We being Wally, Erin, Kathy, Macey, and Myself. Vuvuzelas and coffee ready, we sat down to cheer for the match. I was also logged into Chatzy so I could talk to Tori during the game. First up, Germany vs Argentina.

FOR GERMANY: Me, Macey, Erin
FOR ARGENTINA: Wally, Kathy, Tori
VICTOR: Germany, in a COMPLETE RAPE of 4-0. Many lulz were had, and lots of cheering from Macey and me.

Then, to pass time until the next match, we rented the first book of Avatar: The Last Airbender and watched some of that. Some other people started showing up (Payton, Emily, Mrs. Michelle), and we got ready for the next game.

FOR SPAIN: Kathy, Mrs. Michelle, Tori
FOR PARAGUAY: Me, Erin, Macey, Wally
HAD NO CLUE WHAT WAS GOING ON: Payton, Emily
VICTOR: Spain, in an intense match. Final score was 1-0. I almost had a HEART ATTACK like SEVEN TIMES because of penalty kicks and fouls. It was a great match, even if we lost.

I was also talking to Mrs. Davis on the phone- she was keeping me up to date on Brad (Mr. Davis, a huge soccer nut) and many lulz were had there, too.

After the games, I went home and we had a nice dinner with family and friends! :D
My Aunt Sue and my cousin Nikki showed up, along with my grandma and grandpa,and the Davis family (Minus Emily, of course). We grilled steaks and had an assortment of other delicious foods! Good shit. I spent most of the evening with Aunt Sue and Emily's parents. Witty conversation is awesome. :3


And then, at last, it was FUCK YEAH AMERICA DAY. Rather uneventful at first, to be honest. Church (Nate/Shandi/Halle were there! :D ), then Cleveland came over and we chilled at my house. At about six we bought some fireworks (Lame stuff, mostly. Water Dynamite and Whirrers), got some Ice Cream, and headed to the Yacht Club. We all sailed out into Mobile Bay to watch the fireworks! They launch from the pier every year, so we always go out to watch from the water. Much better than watching from shore.

We had a pretty full boat! My Aunt Kathy and Uncle Rick, Mum and Dad, Sarah, Cleveland, Kathy, me, Tully, and Mr. Garner all showed up! We had various snacks and we got in trouble with the coast guard for shooting off fireworks so close to other people! :D
The fireworks started at 9:00. It was a decent show, but once the "finale" ended, we were a bit confused- they were still shooting off fireworks, but only one or two every four or five minutes. It was weird. And then three fireworks exploded ON THE PIER without being launched (Within a span of about 20 minutes, not all at once) and the pier caught on fire and ambulances came and all of us were like "wut."
We think someone died, but we don't know.


So, we came back to shore, Cleveland spent the night, and now it's Sarah's birthday. All in all, a good weekend.

-David
