Don’t forget… all summer long you can sign up to receive your FREE chocolate from the M&M Mars company. It is one per email per houshold per day and it runs until Midnight each Friday.
Go here to sign up for your free chocolate. (They will mail you a postcard with a certificate for a free chocolate bar or bag of m&m’s – pretty SWEET deal huh? and yes pun WAS intended!)
We have tons going on tonight and tomorrow (well all weekend really) with it being a holiday. We are looking forward to watching fireworks, eating a TON of grilled food, and spending some much needed downtime with the kids. Stay tuned for pics of the holiday weekend on Monday!
Be safe this holiday season and enjoy the things that matter the most- your family and friends!

That pretty much sums up northern ohio! Oh wait… except for the fact that there is a terrible infestion in northern Ohio.
