4th of July!!!

Happy 4th of July everybody!!!! Still sweating it out in Alabama. On Saturday morning Kimberly (Jeris' sister), her boyfriend Jeff and myself went to a Waterpark called Alabama adventure or something like that. I was a bit tired from the week at camp but that didn't stop me. We went on this really cool slide that sort of resembled a toilet. It didn't look like a toilet but it worked sort of the same way. The way it works is you go down a small steep tube thats completely dark and emerge in a large bowl. Then you swirl around for a while and eventually drop into a deep pool. Now its a lot more exciting than the description I just gave.




So we stayed in the Waterpark till 2 or so and came back home and I just crashed on the couch for the rest of the day. The next day (Sunday), Jeris' granmother came over and cooked a HUGE traditional southern style dinner. I nearly needed two plates there was that much food! We had cornbread, fried ocra, turnip greens, mac and cheese and loads of other stuff. It was so good. I haven't eaten that much since Christmas 1997!?!?

Anyway, after all the eating and drinking, me and Jeris went to meet her fiance Jordan in a sports bar called "On Tap". It was really cool and it had the nicest nachoes i've ever had. Then we called over to friends of there called Brian and Andrea and sat in their back yard till 1 in the morning. He has this really cool outdoor fire place and a crazy boxer dog called Lucy.

Yesterday was pretty quiet. We went shopping and stuff and had an incredible barbeque in the evening. The steak was really good (Jims is still number 1 though!). Then last night we went to see "Nacho Libre", the new Jack Black movie, which was funny enough. Kinda weird at times.

So today's the big day. 4th of July! We're all headin out to friends of Jeris' family for another huge barbeque (i'm gonna be 5 times bigger than when I left from all this food!!!) We'll be leaving in about an hour or so and spend most of the day there. I cant wait to see their house because its beside a lake and stuff so it should be beautiful. Also he has a few classic cars (Corvettes, MG's, etc) so it should be really cool. Me and Jeris will be heading to Atlanta this evening to meet up with Jordan, her fiance, and a couple of their friends for a night out. Then tomorrow evening we're going to an Atlanta Braves baseball game (cant wait) at arund 7.30 or so.

So much to do, so little time!!!!!


P.S. Dont worry, i'll put the pictures from camp up when i get home! My digital camera stopped working once i got here so i've had to use disposables for the past two weeks. Typical!!
