THE 4th OF JULY

 Today is the 4th of July. I am celebrating with my family. It is my favorite holiday. I wake up early in the morning. I go swimming with my brother. We have a pool in our backyard. It is very hot outside. The pool feels nice and cool.  After I go swimming, I go to the farmer's market with my mom. We buy a lot of fruit and vegetables from the farmers. We buy the biggest watermelon I have seen. Everybody is excited to celebrate the 4th of July! Next, we go to Grandma's house. We are having a picnic with the whole family. Grandma cooks a lot of good food. I eat a hot dog, potato salad, and watermelon. My cousins are there, too. We play tag. When it starts to get dark, we walk to the park. It is time for my favorite part of the day: the fireworks show!

 I love this part of the day, because the sky is so beautiful when the fireworks show start. You can see different colors at the sky. There are many people waiting for this. The whole of my family are here and some friends, too. The 4th of July is the day that we celebrate the Independence of the USA. I am so proud with my country. To tell the truth I love it.
