Dear Randy,

Today as you may have seen is the fourth of July. It's always been one of my favorite holidays. One of the reasons is that I get to spend time with my family. Every year we have thins big 4th of July cookout. I absolutely look forward to it every year. It is an amazing time every year. I really wish you were here today. I'm at my parents' house right now and we are getting ready for tonight. My parents are cooking and my brothers and sisters are getting everything set up. I'm supposed to be helping but I managed to sneak away to write this to you.

Well other than that in my last letter remember I told you I was sick once again? It turned to be this rash type thing called shingles. I don't know if you've heard of it. My head was aching so badly I wanted to do something to it god I really don't miss that pain. It was one of the worst I've ever felt. It was some type of chicken pox virus related thing. I'm just glad it's over with. I really hated it. Well anyway I really wish you were here. My parents would love you; at least I hope they will. You can really never tell with my parents.

I'm really sorry that I have to make this so short, I have to go help. I love you so much. Virtual kisses well not really virtual since it's not an email but whatever I miss you I'll be waiting for your letter.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Love,

Arianna
