a happy labor day

Today was the last day of a long, exceedingly wonderful weekend.

So we spent it much like we spent the rest of our weekend.

Playing around.

Enjoying the view.

And just generally being, well… lazy.

We did take a little stroll after our stint in the park, you know, to offset a bit of the laziness.

At least the kids got in some play time.

Actually, they got in lots and lots of playtime.

But it didn’t take them long to want to take a break and enjoy the view.

Again.

And again.

This weekend was just what we needed.

To rejuvenate.

To relax.

And, for some of us, to eat a few too many brownies.

And I ain’t talking about my husband.

Oh six pack abs, where art thou?

    Looks like a fabulously lazy Labor Day! Our weekend was too and I have a lot of make-up cleaning, organizing and laundry to tackle tomorrow because of that!

    Beautiful pictures, that little Vivi is precious!
    Can I get some photography lessons by the way??

    And oh yeah, I can't seem to find my six pack abs either, they must have moved on to a better place.
