In Chicago the 3rd seems to be a bigger deal than the 4th. The first works are held on the 3rd, although the parade is on the 4th - neither of which I attend. JP and I were blessed with a fun alternative for the 3rd. Our friend Mara and Marcus got tickets through work for the Cubs game and asked us along. The Cubs won in the tenth inning by a walk! The only downside was that it was oddly chilly for July in Chicago.
Today we are planning on attending a family cookout. What a nice relaxing weekend.
