Okay
code:

<?
$today = date('j');
$month = date('m');
$year = date('Y');

$date = 7 * 3 + $today;
for($i=$today; $i < $date; $i++) {
 
  $full_date = date('l F d, Y',mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $i, $year));
  echo $full_date . '<br/>';
 
}
?>


Since today is saturday, the script above will display something like..

Or, you could have your loop do something like:

code:
$week_length = 7;
for ($weeks_ahead = 0; $weeks_ahead < 3; $weeks_ahead++)
{
   $full_date = date('l F d, Y',mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $today + $weeks_ahead * $week_length, $year));
   echo $full_date . '<br/>';
}
