Labor Day Weekend

Another mark to the end of summer.  Labor Day.  We really lived it up this year and made a lot of plans.  It turned out to be a great weekend!  It started with my annual trip to Swiss Days up in Midway.

 This year I was lucky enough to have my mom and nieces Samantha and Rebecca come along.

My dear friend Jill and I always go together.  This year we saw Elder Uchtdorf and Jill really wanted a picture with him.  So she just kept creeping closer and closer to him and I snapped a picture.  See him there in the background?  He's the one with the fantastic silver hair.  Jill cracks me up!

We had such a good time hiking up to Wall Lake last year for our anniversary that we really wanted to do it again this year.  The hike kept getting pushed back on the calendar until we made Labor Day weekend work for us.  We grabbed everyone that was visiting, Boston and Sam and Lance's dog Piper and drove up to the Uintas.  After our hike we ate dinner at Hi Mountain Drug in Kamas.  It was a great day and the dogs loved it as well!

Kayden practicing his karate moves while the rest of us were sitting by the falls.

On actual Labor Day we got together at the White House and had a BBQ and swam in the pool.  It was another great day spent with family.

We put Boston in the pool to see what he would do.  He didn't like it and got out of there as fast as he could!

It was a great weekend and our time was well spent making lots of memories!
