Weekenderies

July 2nd, 2010

So, what are your plans for the holiday weekend? I plan on cursing my emeffing neighbors who shoot off (illegal) fireworks in their yard, thus waking up my kids and terrifying my dog.

Although the above is actually true, it’s not all we’re doing this weekend. Tomorrow afternoon/evening, my dad and his wife are hosting a BBQ at their place. The kids and I will be going but Gerald has to stay home to work on a HUGE! project that he wants to have done by Tuesday. Then, we’re heading over to my dad’s church parking lot to watch the fireworks. (The parking lot happens to be across the street from the place where his town launches their fireworks. It’s the primo spot to be. Score!)

Sunday is Sam’s baptism; again at my dad’s church. Since all our 4th hullabaloo is on Saturday, we’re free for the rest of the day and all day Monday. Nothing too exciting, but plenty of fun.

How ’bout you? What are your plans for this festive of weekends?

    We’re staying home and heading to a friends’ house. They live on the lake and have a major big party every year on the 4th. We’re talking catered, with waiters and a bar tender, pretzels/nachos/dip-n-dots for the kids, moon bounce, boats/pontoons, the whole works. And their beach is right next to the city park’s beach, which is where the town heads to see our fireworks. So basically, we have prime seats for the fireworks, without the crowds. It’s awesome.

    Also, we have some friends visiting from Germany, so it should be a fun week!

    My class reunion is this weekend. Last night we went to a minor league baseball game, and tonight everyone’s meeting at a bar. We’ll have the kids over tomorrow for a cookout & fireworks, and then I will spend all day Monday thanking Baby Jesus for the extra day off work.
