Hello, Hello, Hello,
The 4th of July weekend is here. I'm pretty sure that half of the working world is off tomorrow and the other half is off on Monday. With the long holiday weekend looming before you, what is your family's plan?
I am super duper excited for this weekend because we are headed down to Deep Wisconsin to visit Chris's family.
It's been two years since I've hugged so many people in his family and I'm so ready.
Bring on the hugs!
Here are five things to enjoy over this holiday weekend.
- This podcast: If you love The Office, you will love this interview between Brian Baumgartner (who played Kevin) and Rainn Wilson (who played Dwight). If you aren't a fan of the show, you may want to sit this one out.
- This instagram post: This guy is my favorite dancer ever since I watched him on So You Think You Can Dance. Is that show still on? I loved watching it with my kids!
- This YouTube: This is not the most glamorous subject matter, but I dare you to try to look away when she gets to the details. It's less than 7 minutes and I appreciated it greatly. (And I got some great tips!)
- This quote: As we celebrate July 4th together this week, this is food for thought.
- This thing about my kids: This past week, our son stated that since the pandemic has gone on so long, he wasn't sure if he would still be friends with a boy from his class. I think he is a little worried about it. I ran into this boy's dad while I was walking Gypsy, and I mentioned what was said. And within this past week, HIS son said the exact same thing. It was fun
to come home from the walk and give him the good news!

July is bursting with family festivals all month long – take notes with this handy July family festival list of local celebrations around the Twin Cites. Family-friendly highlights are listed for each:
Parades are some of the best family fun in the summer. They’re free, you get candy, and it doesn’t take a lot of effort to show up and cheer. Bring a blanket or a chair – oh, and some pillowcases for all the tootsie rolls you’ll be collecting. We add parades as we learn about them, so check back often.
This year, the 4th of July is a Sunday, giving us a full weekend to celebrate (and some of us an extra Monday). Whether you have an Independence Day Go-To Plan or you like to switch things up each year, we’re collecting the details for you.
