This weekend is all about the celebration – our nation’s birthday and Canada Day in honor of our Canadian friends at Lug, Nanodots, nobis and GelaSkins.

With products proudly manufactured in the United States, we know our friends at cinda b (made right here in the great state of Indiana–in Fort Wayne, to be exact!) and idox will be enjoying our nation’s independence day this weekend, too!

What are you doing to celebrate? Fireworks seem to be the most popular 4th weekend activity around here, although in true BLASTmedia fashion, we have many different activities planned:

From Michigan to Cincinnati, a Fourth of July would not be complete without a few lake and pool outings. Some of us are headed to baseball games and even a motocross race – what is a summer weekend without some sporting events?

Carey is visiting the Jersey Shore and we are secretly hoping for a sighting of some of the cast of Jersey Shore (but we hope she doesn’t come back fist-pumping). This weekend is also perfect for the untouched DIY projects around the house – we cannot wait to see what Ashley and Julie complete.

Whatever your plans are for this exciting holiday weekend… be safe and have fun!
