What are your plans for the 4th?

Butter Cookie

we're attending a cookout, same as last year.

Mr. Arb will be on call, so it's not going to be much different from any other Sunday at home for us. 

**O-Face**

8K race mixed up in a training run.

Brunch at parent's house for Dad's bday.

Drinks, etc--fireworks with SIL/soon to be BIL.

Probably go to the ILs for a cookout, then head over to my friend's house for another party, drinking heavily if AF is here by then, POmoreS if she is not.

I also have "Princess" niece's 4th b-day party on Saturday...so not looking forward to that (DH is getting fed up with the yearly gift grab too).

GBCK

the Mr. will work Sat and Monday...which I have off.

The friends we were to hang out w/ = those we went to the funeral for parent earlier this week...I think those plans are off.

And BBQ for gramps's birthday

We're debating whether or not DD is too young for fireworks.  DH wants to take her.  I think it will be too far past her bedtime, and if she's tired, she might be more frightened than thrilled.  I'm kind of leaning toward taking a chance, though.

Other than that, dinner at my mom's with my grandma, aunt, and uncle before Aunt and Uncle take Grandma back home to Florida with them.  Maybe swimming with DD.  I'm shooting for kind of a low key weekend, since last weekend was so busy.

Heffa just maybe put headphones on her or something, so the sound doesn't get her. The thrill of the popping lights she would probalby enjoy, but not the loud boom.

Tomorrow I have the day off. DH is flying home from Wisconsin tomorrow, and then pretty much driving straight down to Key Largo with 2 friends to get one of the friend's parent's boat and drive it back up here. So I have dinner plans with the wives and girlfriends, and then the girlfriend is going to spend the night at my house for a little slumber party.

On the 4th itself, we're going to a friend's baby's bris (not excited, other than to see the newborn baby goodness) and then to another friend's house for a BBQ.

Parade and fireworks all by our sad little selves.

Maybe be at the ILs. The heat is supposed to come back big time Sunday and Monday. They have central air. Saturday we're going to a cook-out at friends of my IL's. I'm looking forward to it. I really like these people

DH is on call, but we are going to a friend's for a cook out.  We're skipping on fireworks.  They don't start until 10 and 6let is petrified of loud noises.

We'll be visiting my parents. I'm giong to ask my mom to look into fireworks displays down there. They'll have them, but it won't be a huge deal. We'll just try to make Dex take a longer or 2nd nap that day and keep him up later. 

He has zero issues with loud noises. In fact, "loud noise" is one of his favorite phrases - it applies to just about everything from the hand mixer to the car accelerating to a weed trimmer to DH sneezing.  It's pretty hilarious, actually.

Getting naked wasted with the neighbors.  KIDDING!

We are going to lunch with MIL and then going to have a cookout w/our neighbors.  We need to go find some decent fireworks.  I do love living in IN because fireworks are legal.
