Fourth of July in our Nation's Capital

Matt, Rachel and I are watching the DC fireworks on TV, even though we are only 4 miles from the National Mall. The finale is blasting and we can hear it from their house. I've never before watched July 4th fireworks on TV. Matthew calls it Fireworks Porn.

Months are Like Days

Was June compressed this year? I can't believe that we are on the eve of July. Our friends David and Rachel joined us in early June at the start of their month-long honeymoon and they return this week at the tail end.

Their blog 100% Chance of Happiness has the most stunning photos of their travels. We'll be together on 4th of July. The question is how will we celebrate? Perhaps by going to a smoke-free pub!
