Labor Day

We went up the canyon close to where I grew up for Labor Day and got together with my cousins. Only in a small town do I think kids would have the chance to meet and play with their 3rd cousins. We had a great time! My kids loved a swing someone tied to a tree and asked to go on it over and over. Marie was the most excited by that.

Peter found the Cheetos and pulled them off the table. 

All my kids were quite taken with the four-wheeler. I'm sure they would love it if we got one. However, I've seen way too many wicked accidents by very experienced riders as I've worked in the ICU. One night when I was the charge nurse, we had 4 ATV accidents admitted. I don't mind if they ride once in a while, but I don't want to own them.
