| | I hope everyone had a good Independence Day weekend. Mine was OK, not exciting, a little on the boring side, but I got over it. My Dad and I played golf Friday, I was 4 points from beating him, and it was fun. We love to play golf together, even though both of us are not that great. Saturday the rest of my family came up to my grandparent's house. I will say this, my extended family is nice, but a little on the odd side. My grandparents are awesome, but my uncles chose some.... how should I put this.... different women. (I won't go into details) I don't have a large family, my Mom only had two brothers, and my Dad has one brother, who he has lost contact with, so we usually only have a small get-together with Mom's family during holidays.
Needless to say, the 4th was pretty par for the course with my family. We ate lunch together and talked around the table for a while. The talking lasted a bit too long (in my opinion), I wanted to go into Brevard for their town's festival and classic car show, but by the time my uncle's families had left it was too late. Dad and I went to the fireworks show at Brevard College, Mom stayed home with my grandparents because it was late and they didn't feel like seeing a live show.
Yesterday I watched the Wimbledon men's final game between Roger Federer and Andy Roddick. I was really pulling for both, because I would have loved to have seen Roddick win his first Wimbledon, and he's American, so I wanted to pull for him there. However, Federer is at the top of his game, ranked number 2 in the world, and he was pretty much expected to win. We can't fault people for expecting that of him, it comes with being one of the greatest. I do love the fact that history was made, and that Federer has 15 Grand Slam titles, beating out Pete Sampras. The match was so long though, over 4 hours, and 77 games played. I thought it was never going to end. Congrats to Federer.
