What are you doing on the 4th of July?

And I get it, because it's the actual 4th, but I am a little bit bummed that the Parkway concert and fireworks are on Monday instead of Sunday since we all have to go to work on Tuesday.

We're hanging local and I'll head down to the Parkway to see The Roots, I think.  We'll probably hang out with the people on our block and barbeque and eat and drink all day.

I think we're going down to DC for the weekend for DH's friend's 30th. I'm not very happy because the guy is a diick, and they're taking away my holiday weekend. Plus, I'm sure the DC area will be insane. However, he's a close friend (despite my trying to change that) and he's dating a close family friend of mine, so we can't really avoid.

I'll be flying back to Philly from PR that morning. The rest of the day we will be lazy bums, maybe cook a steak on the grill, and watch fireworks on the TV.

I'm also debating taking off on the 5th from work just to have a day to "catch up".

I think a friend from Pittsburgh is going to come visit me! She also might be able to score a place at the beach through a family friend so I'm hoping this all pans out and I'll be at the beach.

Otherwise..I'm not really sure. I guess we'll hang around, bbq and drink.

I'm having the same issue with the fireworks on Monday night. I'd like go up to CT to hangout with the family but it's kind of pointless since I'm not going to drive back at 10:00 at night or take the 5th off. Last year was nice because one of our friends was living in The Sterling and we were able to watch the fireworks from the roof. Not sure what we'll end up doing this year.

Going to the Poconos with the in-laws. Not looking forward to it because the puppy is all over the place so I'll likely be wrangling him all weekend because there are so many new things for him to explore there.

hanging home and sulking.  My parents and oldest brother are headed up state to my middle brothers house for a huge party with fireworks.

the 3rd in the morning, i took a 3 hour tour job with a company i have freelanced for since 2008, but jeez if the money wasn't so good i would NEVER do it. i hate being down old city on the 4th.

4th we might head down towards the parkway but i have no clue how the babe will take to fireworks.

Yay!  Very exciting.

We come back from our trip to Shelter Island on the 3rd.  Mr.D's family has a HUGE bbq (over 100 family members) so we'll probably go to that in the afternoon and then go to my family's much more low key bbq in the evening.  Then we'll go home and attempt to sedate Otis before the fireworks begin.

i have no idea, no plans as of yet. i'd love to check out the roots, but i can't deal with the parking and all of the people!!

Flying back from my cousin's wedding in CO. You know you're jealous. I think I'll be unpacking or sitting on the couch (more likely).

Baltimore. My sis lives near the inner harbor. So fun. Lots to do and multiple fireworks displays.

I will be home recovering from birth and drinking a blue moon with orange. I think I've missed these the most in the past 9 months.

Bullseye can't wait to do her zoomies!

A friend just invited us to have crabs at her cottage in Northeast, MD. Totally excited. Low key, crabs and not too far away, trifecta.

We will be down the shore for 5 days and celebrating Ava's first birthday!
