6th on 4th

We've lived here SIX MONTHS! Half a year! Where did the time go? We celebrated by hosting a 4th of July BBQ!

We grilled burgers, meat sticks, and sausages and somehow our mini-grill kept up! Potato salad and deviled eggs were also on the menu, but I'm pretty sure the eggs were solely eaten by the 3 Americans in attendance! Other countries represented: Australia, Canada, France, UK, Russia...

The beverage of choice (almost only choice) was BUD! The supermarche was fully stocked and we almost bought it all. They must have known we were coming! And don't think we went without fireworks - sparklers came in to the rescue!

My favorite holiday was spent doing what I love to do; hanging with family while BBQ'ing by the water and watching fireworks (some French kids actually set off some really tiny fireworks outside our apartment, on the beach)! Of course being surrounded by a sea of people dressed in red, white and blue and having the whole clan here would have made it better, but I think we pulled off a pretty great party!
