Labor Day weekend is supposed to be about taking a break from our "labors", therefore we get an extra day off of work. The funny thing is; as a mom of 6, being home from my 9 - 5 job is much more "work" than being there. It's definitely a labor of love! Today my sister, Shelby, came over with her 3 kids. We cleaned the house, washed the dogs and worked in the back yard. House work and yard work are so much more fun with help. Here are the cousins hanging out together.

The Captain....???!!!???
Looks like Steve's "got a little Captain in him"! Working hard, or hardly working...???
Ahh, then we eat! What a great summer meal. Chicken wings on the tri-pod cooked over a bonfire, (per special request from the boys, it's a camping favorite!), fresh cucumber salad with cucumbers from the garden, corn on the cob, watermelon, and homemade buttered noodles, yummm! Of course there were S'mores for desert while sitting by the fire. It doesn't get any better than this.
Sitting around the fire after a long, crazy day, sippin' on a Twisted Tea, talking, laughing and making memories with my family....priceless!
