Labor Day

This year we had our traditional camping trip with our family on Labor Day.

 However, it was a little different than previous years because..

 we camped in Grandma and Grandpa's backyard!

 We had a tasty dinner...

 and played a game of dodge ball in the dark.  Aunt Cristi is a good shot!

 The evening was cool and there weren't any skeeters...

 Some families set up tents,

 but we laid out some tarps and slept peacefully under the stars until it started to drizzle.  We quickly moved all the kids into the basement and then, of course, the rain stopped.

 Aunt Julie did a few hair-dos the next morning and we enjoyed a tasty breakfast.

 Then we headed up the canyon and spent the day on Grandpa's four-wheelers.

 What fun!

 The hardest part was waiting for our turn...

 but Grandpa told us some fun stories to pass the time.

 Everyone got a turn to ride up to the top of the mountains.

 The view was magnificent.

 The company was even better!

It was a great weekend for all.
