Photos from our 4th of July weekend! We started it out by trying Duck Donuts for the first time (since they recently opened their Fairfax location), had a BBQ with my parents’ family friends, and ended with fireworks on Sunday night!

Duck Donuts! — Duck Donuts were delicious! My favorite were the maple bacon ones!

4th of July grilling — When we grill, we do it right… chicken satay, kalbi, and shrimp & vegetable skewersÂ (…in addition to the typical burgers + hot dogs)
