Perfect weather, a beloved lake cabin, and time with cousins made for a great Labor Day weekend. My four in our special numerical order are
Uno...
Deuce...
Trey...
Caboose...
"Baywatch"ing...

Frog catching...
Water...
(I love the above pic, but fear it kind of resembles a Tiger Beat Centerfold)

Sand...
Sun...
and Fun...
The weekend also included a trip to my home church. I put the emphasis on the word home because it truly was like coming home. What a loving community who really knows what it means to take care of the widows in their midst. As I worshiped there I was flooded with memories of holding my Daddy's hand each time we prayed (even as an adult), listening to my Mommy's angelic singing, and hearing them tell the pastor every week it was the best sermon he had ever preached. And truly meaning it!

It was all topped off with a family kickball game back at home...
(Bill is saying "Smile and say 'Blog Post'!" Why I oughtta!)

Someone decided she wanted to play a different game...
Jack to the rescue...
Not a quiet weekend, of course. We never can seem to get one of those around here. But a fun one!

Most people who watermark their photos have no reason to. At all. But I have to say that your gorgeous children combined with your fab photography skills COMPLETELY warrant the watermark.

And yes - totally a Tiger Beat photo.

Tiger Beat - yes that's exactly what I was thinking. Better get a big stick to beat the girls away.
