On July the fourth, my family and I went to the Hendleys’ house for Independence Day. I was excited, even though I didn’t know there were fireworks. I was wearing my bathing suit. Bobo came too. The boys started yelling Bobo! Bobo! There was a pool that my sister immediately went into. At first I didn’t want to get in the pool. But then my mom forced me to. I used my (big) toes to see how cold the water was. It was freezing!! I yelped and hopped into the freezing cold water. I swam around. It was very boring because I had nothing to do. So I got out and started going on the water slides. JJ didn’t like the water slides because she was whining that the water was too cold. I liked it though.
For dinner we had barbecue. There was YUMMY SCRUMPTIOUS chicken wings and ribs. Mmm mm mmm! After that, we got water balloons. A guy in a green shirt threw a water balloon at Topher. Topher got mad and then there was a war. I used my two balloons wisely. I threw one at the green guy since I didn’t like him. He was mean to kids. The next one I threw at Topher just for fun. I liked the green guy even less when he started throwing kids in the pool. Luckily,I didn’t get wet at all. He even threw people in when they didn’t have their bathing suit
on. I really didn’t like the green guy.
After dinner we watched fireworks. My favorite was the Medusa. None of them were really cool. I still had fun anyway. We got glow sticks to bring home. It was very fun!

Beach, Firework on July 3rd!
Today is the day before Independence Day! We went to Plymouth for fireworks. We went with
Andy, my mom’s coworker.
First we went to the beach. The water was cold, but I still went in. The first time I went in, I didn’t put my head under. The second time, only Katelyn and I were in the water. We were playing a fun game called Water Dare. Someone had to dare you to do something in the water. If you didn’t do it, you had to do the chicken dance. (I don’t wanna be a chicken…) I liked the chicken dance, but I also liked the dares. Later we got out and tried to bury ourselves. JJ and Julie both got buried. Then We went back for the barbecue. I couldn’t wait for the fireworks.
The fireworks were at the beach. This was the first time I ever saw fireworks at the beach so I was very excited! I was also very sad because we had to leave Bobo at Andy's house. What if she ran away or someone stole her? I was very worried. But when I got to the beach I forgot about everything. There was a HUGE bonfire near us. We didn’t want to sit in the sand, so my dad had to go back and get the blanket. When he came back, he said he saw a coyote in the neighbors’ lawn. This made me worry about Bobo even more. Luckily, my dad said he tied Bobo to the deck upstairs.
Suddenly, the fireworks started. The sky was filled with flashing colors. It looked like magic! It was so colorful. The wonderful fireworks made me forget about everything around me. My favorite was the big ones that shot high up in colors and then exploded into thousands of tiny golden sparks. Down by the big bonfire, there were some “serious fireworks”. Andy was saying that a lot. The sky was filled with “serious fireworks”. I was lying down and enjoying the fourth of July happily.
But when my mom said it was time to go, I didn’t want to go, even though it was very late at night. When we were walking back, I started to get anxious about Bobo. JJ and I were REALLY scared. When I searched on the deck, she wasn’t there. Oh no! Where did she go? I heard barking, and I saw Bobo inside! She was safe! I ran in and hugged her. July fourth turned out perfect!
