Welcome to my crazy life! As a mommy to 3 adorable boys my days are full of adventure and fun. I am realizing that time goes by so quickly and I don't want to forget all the cute things that the boys say and do. I hope that this blog will serve as a journal to record all those precious moments...

Labor Day 2011


We got a pleasant surprise this morning when our neighbor, Luke, came by with a note from his Mom asking if we would like to join them for apple picking.  So, Colin, Evan and I met them at a farm about 10 minutes from here and spent some time picking apples.  The boys seemed to enjoy picking them and Colin enjoyed eating a couple too. 





After lunch and naps Colin played at their house for a couple hours while I made a homemade apple pie for dessert.  The house smelled awesome!

As you can see in the pictures, the boys are wearing sweatshirts!  I have always thought of Labor Day as the last chance to go to the pool and BBQ's in the backyard.  But, nope, here in Indiana it is COLD.  I never thought I would have to start pulling out fall clothes in early September.

The rest of the weekend was spent with Dennis getting stuff done in the yard and organizing the garage.  It was great to have him around for 4 days, though I really could use a few more 3 day weekends, so that Dennis can get some more stuff done around here. 

One funny Colin story...on Sunday Colin was mad that his friends weren't home to play with him (he rang their door bell 10 times, thinking they were just ignoring him!).  When they finally got home later that day it was dinner time, so I told him no he couldn't go out.  He was so mad at me he ran to his room.  He then came back down with $6 and asked if he could please go out if he gives me his money.  He was trying to buy me off at 6 years old!!!  For the record, it didn't work.
