Labor Day Weekend

We had a busy and fun Labor Day Weekend.  We started it off by heading to Bear Lake with the Cooks.  The weather was a little too windy to go boating, so we hit the pool instead.  We swam until the sky went dark and the lightning started.  Then we ran for cover!  The kids still had a great time.  David jumped off the diving board for the first time.  He loved it!  We couldn’t get him to stop.  Ellie also loved the diving board.  She loved trying to impress us with her tricks.  We rounded out the cabin trip with our usual relaxing and playing games.  Good times. 

  

We headed home on Sunday to spend some time with my brother and his family who were in town from Cedar City.  The kids had a sleepover together, and then just played the day away.  We celebrated our littlest cousin Addie’s birthday while then were here.  She is a hoot.  She doesn’t say much, but she’s got all of us wrapped around her little finger.  We love it when our cousins come to town!

Classic Addie.  If a messy face is the sign of a good time, then Addie had a blast on this weekend!

Eric and I came over around 8:30 the morning after the kids had their sleepover to try and help my dad pick peaches.  But you have to get up pretty early in the morning to help Grandpa John with a job.  Not only did he have the peach tree cleaned, but he’d picked all of this good stuff too!  Talk about a hard worker.
