Labor Day





Over Labor Day weekend we traveled to see some friends who recently moved to the country. It was beautiful! Their house sits atop a hill surrounded by rolling fields and woods. We had a bonfire, which nearly overtook our blanket, stroller, etc., complete with tasty s'mores. Brooklyn learned the fine art of toasting, rather than burning the marshmallows to a crisp. She was rather proud of her accomplishment. Xavier didn't care, as long as it was accompanied by chocolate and graham crackers. The kids romped in the fields, went for hikes in the woods, and took a dip in the nearby lake. It was country living at its best! Andy would love to live in the country. I was almost convinced during this visit until the multiple near misses with deer during a drive. I'll continue my suburban living for now. Thanks to the Boyds for their wonderful hospitality. We can't wait to hear your baby news!
