The town is pretty much in a buzz we've been busy getting the house decorated for Independence day Our other Uncle and his family are coming up for a few days then we'll all head to the country side for some grand Independence day celebration. I can't wait! It's going to be so much fun I haven't seen Uncle Walden and his family in a while. He has five kids Piper she is a year older than me Drake who is my age, Seth who is a year younger than Cedric Amielia she's Winifred's age and David who is same age as Ruben. Oh wait did I say uncle Walden had five? Well they do but just got reminded that the they have another on the way so that means Aunt Nelly will be limited on her activities this year. Anyway I still can't wait!
