I have to say that my husband actually "labored" on labor day weekend. What most people see as a 4 day weeekend to play and have fun my husband did play but also went to work. They are so busy that he worked a 1/2 day on Sunday and a 1/2 day on Monday. Now I know all of you are going "AWW" don't worry he was able to find time to play too! We had a great weekend in the midst of work. Friday night we went to a friends house and sat around a bonfire and roasted marshmallows and made smores. They were yummy. Now the kids were looking forward to this but we forgot to bring a bat and ball to play with. Calvin (the friend) has a big backyard and a 2 yr old little boy but of course no Alex size toys. Well if you know Alex at all you know that he loves his glove bat and ball. Well Colin can make anything so he took a saw and went over to some of Calvins' apple trees and "made" Alex a bat. Let me tell you it was the hit of the night. (no pun intended). Even two yr old Ben (Calvin's son) like it.
Then we played some more on Monday. We had a cookout at mom and dad Ritters' house and we finally went out in the boat. Courtney and Alex went tubing behind the boat for the first time. Colin enjoyed tubing with them and they both can't wait until the next time! By the way Natalie fell asleep in the boat so I guess she will get her turn next time!
