Labor Day '09

We stayed at a friend's house and enjoyed views like this:

Above is the main house, below is the garage with an apartment above which is where we stayed.

More lovely scenery:

 

The apartment above the garage has a cute room with a bed perfect for Henry, one for mom and dad and a pack and play for Harper.

 

We made breakfast in the little kitchen.

  

And ate breakfast on the little deck.

 

  

And went on a ride in the kayak. (just the boys)

  

  

 

While I took pictures of my pretty new dress.  

  

 Harper lounged around with me.

  

And daddy fished.

  

And Henry played.

  

And I relaxed.

  

And attempted to read a little bit of a book RJ brought.

  

  

We had some friends who came to ride in the paddle boat.

  

And fed them "s'mores".....marshmallow dipped in melted chocolate bars, sprinkled with Oreos.

 

 And I lounged around some more in another fun dress.

  

We had so much fun, but you can see the exhaustion in little Henry's face the next morning. But of course I managed to get a sweet shot of the two. They are just obsessed with each other. It warms my heart so much to see the love they have for each other.

  

We had a great time as a family. Hopefully we'll make another trip out to the lake house this fall. It's so beautiful and peaceful. I even took a nap outside in a deck chair. Oh, it was lovely.  I was way bummed to come back to reality, but this is going to be a fun, short week. 

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend as well!
