Labor Day Lollygagging

What a glorious Labor Day weekend it has been here in Nashville. The first cool days of the season - sunny, but cool breezy, cold at night and in the morning. Glorious. We enjoyed the time off and together with a bit of:

Camping in the backyard (until Noah flipped out at 2 am)

Roasting marshmallows

Setting off rocket balloons in the yard and cul-de-sac

Winning another blog giveaway - what fun!
Watching college football (what else?!)
Playing outside, outside, and outside

Trying new recipes (Enchilada Casserole, Baked Spaghetti, Crunch Bars)
Playing our newest diversion on iPad - Angry Birds
Painting Anna's room (well, painting stripes/polka dots)

Hearing "No", "Mine" and "Stop" from a grumpy Anna all weekend
Going to the neighborhood playground and pond
Trying to ditch the sleeping pills (it's going ok)
Visiting a church for a second time and ruling it out
Cutting Noah's hair and wiping Anna's nose
Romping and running at Kids Kingdom Park

Feeding the ducks
Glaring from one of many time-outs (this one at the park)
