We have a long weekend ahead! How will you be celebrating the 4th?

As for me, and I’m sure many others out there, I will be at the softball field. This weekend, my 3 daughters are all participating in Hawaii’s Bobby Sox State Tournament. Of course, less than 3 days away, and we still have no schedule. I still don’t understand why tournament schedules are set up so last minute. Why don’t the tournament people all get together the week before the tournament (instead of 1-2 days before) and set up the schedule so that parents and team members can do some planning? I guess we’re simply supposed to plan to be at the park all weekend from start to end; details not all that necessary, but will be provided later.

Anyway, while others are out bar-be-quing, beach going, firecracker popping/watching, and celebrating the 4th of July, my family and I will be at the park. Softball….the story of a lot of my life. But that’s just fine with me.

So – what are you doing this weekend?
