Resting from our Labors

I love three day weekends, especially when it is a Monday off. There is something so wonderful about a Sunday night knowing your spouse gets to be home with you the next day. Our Labor Day weekend was just about perfect. On Saturday morning we went to the temple and then came home and all took snoozes. Then we went up to the Corte Madera shopping center. We stopped at Boudins Bakery and got bread and peanut butter cookies for dinner (healthy, I know). We then walked down through the outdoor shopping center and let Audrey play in all the fountains while we ate. The weather was perfect and since there was no school on Monday, Dave didn't have to worry about studying or doing any projects. That night Dave and I put the kids to bed and watched "House" (we never watched it on tv, so we are renting all the seasons. We just finished season three. I really like it). On Sunday we went to Church and then had Jamie, Dallas, Megan and Nando over for dinner. On Monday Dave let me sleep in (I didn't move until 9:30! I felt like a new person!) and then Memor and Fafa drove in to visit. The weather was so nice so we walked down to the beach and flew a kite.


While we were at the beach we saw dolphins in the water just off the shore. It was so neat. Looking for them...

She found them!

There are two in this picture, but there were at least three or four in the water.


It was a great Labor Day weekend and I'm just glad I wasn't in labor.

You didn't post anything about our trip there and our family pictures! I was wanting to copy some of your post for my blog for when I caught up.

Yeah! for family beach days! We had fun making great sand castles surrounded by water. Tim found out he had the day off the night before and I was elated. These days don't come often enough. I laughed at your excursion to the Museum. I held the kids hands for barely 15 minutes through the Chihuly exhibit and they were ready to go play at the playground across the street. I love your effort to infuse culture in Audrey's life. Cheers.
