it was the fourth of july in two thousand and twelve

one girl and one boy went out on the town. they ate lunch at the in-laws (and baked up a pie),
then off to the pool (and a watermelon contest). the hours went by and it was time for a nap.
the husband got grumpy when the wife said wake up! but good thing she's in charge
for they skipped all the crowds and watched the show from (a) downtown (rooftop).

  2. How do you like the King of Pops? My friend is using the king at her wedding (instead of a wedding cake).
