My office is closed on Friday - which is surprising, given that I work in a hospital, but I'll take it! I also took Wed and Thur off, so only a 2 day work week for me! My plan for Wed is to go through boxes in our basement. There are lots of boxes that haven't even been touched since we moved almost 2yrs ago. We're not sure what our plans are for the actual 4th yet. Will likely go somewhere for some swimming and still on the fence if we'll let W stay up and watch fireworks.
We're going up north. We'll do our usual up north things and then on Saturday there's going to be kids' games on the beach so we'll do that. Sat night we have a family reunion picnic and then fireworks. I'm looking forward to it, but when we were there a couple weeks ago B was a huge brat the whole weekend. I hope he's better this time.

Wednesday H is bringing the kids to my parents because we are going to DMB that evening. We are hoping to hit up a taproom and maybe get something to eat beforehand.
Thursday we will meet up with them and then all go to my parents cabin until Monday.
We are going to a fireman pancake breakfast in the morning & a friend's house in the afternoon for a BBQ & fireworks. They are renting a big inflatable water slide. I am excited to see friends I only see once a year & I love watching our kids play together.
We're going to the airshow on Friday. Then we're going to my parents house on the lake Saturday. We'll swim and grill out. There's a boat parade in the afternoon and then we can watch the fireworks at night. I'm going to get some sparklers and maybe a couple other small fountains or something just in case he doesn't stay awake for the big show.

We'll be at my dads in VT. The town does the traditional small town parade and then a BBQ lunch on the green and then fireworks over the lake that we go out on the boat for. I love the 4th up there. I think my dad is driving his old truck in the parade so Aiden will probably ride with him
We are going to our beach condo Thursday after work. So beach on Saturday and then take the boat out to watch fireworks. We did it last year and it was really nice watching them on the water. I really hope to take Lillian. She hasn't seen fireworks. She will either love them or be terrified if they are too loud.
We will be at a lake I think Dj is going fishing that morning. We may go to the carnival they have going on that day then cook out and relax. I think they are still doing the fireworks on the lake

Friday is out annual cookout/Christmas tree burning. I am stressing because DH doesn't have off that day AND daycare is closed! I was hoping to have 8-4 kid free to prep and clean!
Saturday we are going to see fireworks and maybe spend some time at the fair.
Sunday is probably going to be relaxing and recovering.
We have a 5K run that actually goes through my neighborhood and it is a big deal. My h and I will be running that then we will all go to town for a huge parade. After that the inlaws are coming over for food and we will set out the inflatable pools for the girls. Then we will see the fireworks from our house. Debating on letting L stay up for them. It should be a lot of fun as long as the weather holds out.
We head to our beach vacation on the 4th, so we will settle into the house and play on the beach. We will probably grill burgers for dinner and watch fireworks from the porch.
