Hither, Thither and Yon

This Labor Day weekend felt like our last big summer hurrah! The cooler weather certainly reminded us that fall is just around the corner. We packed in all sorts of fun activities and made the most of every minute together.

Friday evening we joined several friends from MFBC at the Hawks' Stadium in Boise for a tailgate party, baseball game and fireworks show. We got to sit next to Pastor Randy... that's Grandpa to us. Ally was terrified of the "chicken" (Hawk mascot) and the noisy fireworks, but it was a good time just the same. I got such a kick out of watching Sierra belt out "Take me out to the ballgame..." at the top of her lungs.


On Saturday we took the girls over to Chuck E. Cheese for lunch and then did a little shopping at Tuesday Morning. Here is Ally modeling some good buys: $4.75 swimsuit for Sierra and $9.99 rain boots for Ally...plus the free Hawks helmet from the day before. Silly girl wore this outfit all afternoon.

After church on Sunday morning we drove up to Garden Valley. Chuck and Missy were already at the cabin and Mom and Dad joined us after the evening service at church. We took several nice walks, rode the motorcycle, had a bonfire, threw pine cones, picked and planted ferns, played games, ate meals outside, and had an all-around perfect time. (Except for the fact that the Becks weren't there.)
