I'm heading out for a big family reunion in Chicago. It'll be hot, humid, and I'll be six and a half months pregnant. And there was much rejoicing.
Seriously, we're gathering to celebrate my grandparents' 50th Anniversary. I'm carrying their first great-grandchild and my aunt is carrying their eleventh grandchild. There will lots of belly-patting. This will also be the first time I've seen my brother since he came back from Iraq in April. All in all, it's shaping up to be an awesome weekend.
So be safe whether you're traveling or partying at home. Let's remember the positives of the holiday and see if that can get us to learn a few things about how to make our country's present and future better.

Enjoy. Take pics. And tell baby to keep the kicking down.
He actually did refrain from his usual uterine gymnastics, much to my mother's regret. She got to feel one tiny little "thunk" and that was it. But I did hear enough "wide load" jokes and such to last me a lifetime. :)
