and spend the Holiday with my mom’s side of the family
at my Aunt Deb’s house.
Easter
On Easter my Aunt, Uncle, and 2 cousins come down and
we all celebrate together by searching for Easter eggs
and at 2 o’clock we eat! My mom makes her awesome Penne Vodka! It is Penne
pasta with a YUMMY Vodka sauce on top! It is always a
favorite!

my neighbors do fireworks!
