Cape Cod for the 4th

Ali cia had a huge group of people (20 in total) down the Cape this weekend. It was tons o fun and the best was that the sun came up and stayed up for our vacation weekend. How nice!

Fun things to do:

• bocce - we were doing well the first three tosses then it all fell apart
• grillin' and cookin' - I liek the kitchen there a lot
• making sand castles - esp. since there's a kid nearby and I don't look nearly as silly as if I were alone
• lobsters and steamers - lobster was super sweet and tasty
• ladder ball - a game anyone can play. I love it. I'm obsessed.
• spectatoring for sporting events - Sox finally pulled out a win, Wimbeldon mens was loo-oo-oong (I'm starting to like tennis since Rene is so into it...I think I'd like to try it and be very bad at it) and the hotdog eating contest
• camp fire - there's a fire pit now and we all sat around it at night and had fun playing Would You Rather; I'm also partial to Marry Chuck or F*ck.
• and, of course, my favorite: swimming in the ocean - great waves on Saturday

Of course, none of this would be half as fun if it weren't for the company. I have good friends. And they have cute children. T was down with DTC and she's such a cutie pie. Very expressive face and says "Mumma!" and "Hi!" clear as day. So fun. I srsly can't wait until I'm old enough to have one. Hahahahahaha. Ugh.

To wait out traffic, I hit up the Cape Cod bookstores. I wrote about that over at the poetry blog, so if you feel like seeing my latest acquirements, check it out.
