Our Labor Day

Our Picnic at Bradley Lake

The Cake

We had our monthly FHE at the Stone Palace yesterday and also celebrated Desi's 26th birthday. I made her a giant cupcake cake and then lots of little cupcakes around it. I think it turned out pretty cute. We also had super delicious dinner with homemade rolls, cornbread, ribs, mashed potatoes, and corn from the garden. Lisa gave a really good lesson on families and how we should treat our brothers and sisters which was a much needed lesson for our family. Then today, since the office was closed for Labor Day, we took the kids to a park and had a picnic lunch and then we went and toured the new Spirit Halloween store at the mall. Of course Brandon was real polite waving to all the scary monsters while Elijah was saying he wanted to leave the whole time. Now we are at home, watching a movie and all cuddled up the couch staying warm and dry in the rain:) Hope everyone had a good holiday.

Glad you were able to have a fun family day and go on a picnic. That's funny that Brandon was waving at all the monsters.
