It’s Friday! The Fourth of July weekend is finally here, which means fireworks, backyard cookouts, cold drinks, and plenty of excuses to spend time outdoors with family and friends. Whether you’re firing up the grill, heading to a parade, relaxing by the lake, or simply enjoying a long weekend, here’s hoping you have a safe and fun holiday. If you’re lighting fireworks, remember they’re meant to entertain the neighborhood—not send you into the emergency room. Have a great weekend, and try to come back on Monday with the same number of fingers you started with.

And in keeping with the holiday, I put together a special gallery of babes for today. Enjoy!
