I have lived on the East Coast now for five years, and enjoy how each season seems to end with a holiday. Winter with Easter, Spring with Memorial Day, Summer with Labor Day...you get the idea. It is nice to be handed an extra day to clean up from the prior season, and prepare for the one ahead.
On this labor day, the kids helped box up all their summer clothes for donation, make room in the garage for both cars, and scatter pumpkins, orange leaves, and Mums about the house in preparation for the Fall. Amidst all our "to dos" this holiday, we set aside time each day to just be lazy...I mean leisurely...
These are some snapshots from those leisurely (and my favorite) moments...
View from the sideline: Admiring two of my favorite men sharing a laugh on the swings.
Backyard picnics: This smile represents Kate's first taste of Kool-Aid.
If you take a close look at her left leg...you will notice the display of band aids..still there.

That's what Labor Day is all about! Celebrating all the other days that we labor by not doing anything at all :) Glad you guys had a nice relaxing holiday!
