Happy birthday, America! This is about as patriotic as I can get at my age.

CoCo & I spent Fourth of July together.

We went to her community’s July 4th Festival where the highlight was riding ponies. I love pony rides, especially after my first ride at McLean Day a couple of months ago. This time, though, it was especially nice because there was such a short line that CoCo and I got to ride like 5 or 6 time each. I wasn’t afraid of the big horses so sometimes, Mommy would let me ride the big ones.

CoCo and I also fed the ponies who were resting. It was cool to gather grass and feed them with our hands. I must admit, I was more scared than CoCo, but was glad that the horse ate our generous offerings.

You may be wondering why I’m wearing a rash guard and swimming trunks while riding a horse. Well, it’s because CoCo and I went to her community pool afterwards. It was such a kid-friendly pool with very shallow areas for scaredy-cats like me. I can’t swim like CoCo in the water yet, but Mommy’s determined to make me invinsible by buying a floater similar to CoCo’s so that I can hopefully “swim.”

After a much-needed nap, we headed over to YiMa’s house for Daddy’s famous BBQ and to watch fireworks from Langley High School. Everyone was curious to see how I would do while I watched fireworks for the first time and boy, did I surprise everyone! I wasn’t afraid at all! Mommy & Daddy heard many kids, some older than I, cry when the fireworks started, but not me. I just started laughing and really enjoying the display even though the fireworks started at 10 PM –way, way, way past my bedtime.
Because of this experience, Mommy & Daddy are relieved that I might actually enjoy the Disney Cruise nightly fireworks. Yes, Disney Cruise. Mommy & Daddy have fallen into the trap…already. We go in September with GongGong and PoPo before they leave for Taiwan. Stay tuned…
