Labor Day Weekend

Well the holiday came and went! Can't believe how fast time flys. We had a great weekend of solid family hang out time. We went to dairy queen, where Dylan screamed the whole time for a bite of ice cream. It was so hard for Ty that he finally gave into the squeals and gave him a bite of his ice cream cone! I think Dylan says "Ty Ty"now!! Friday night we went to Matthews Alive to ride all the fun "toys". The boys had a blast, they have zero fear! Saturday, Daddy and the boys worked hard in the yard to move all the mulch from our freshly cut trees. Ty said it was so stinky, but he had to be a big helper for Daddy. Sunday we were off back to Matthews Alive to ride more "toys" and listen to some of our friends play in the band. It was such a great weekend to be together. It was hard to think about my family being at home on the holiday without my mom. It sounds like the made it through, doing the things they would normally do. Wow, still feels like yesterday that she was here in Charlotte loving on us. The boys and I were looking at some old pictures the other day and Mamaw was in a few of them. They were so confused to see her and asked if she had come back from Heaven. Too sweet. As hard as it is to talk about sometimes, it always puts a smile on my face when I get to talk to my boys about Jesus and Heaven. Well on a lighter note....Ty and Bryce are wonderful artists, just come look at the walls in our playroom and the back of Aunt Ashley's door!! I thought that they were past that, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! They love to paint too, but some how they always end up with pink, yellow, and blue toe nails and finger nails!! "Like Mommy", they say! This is why we make you paint outside boys..................we hope your labor day weekend was as fun and family filled as ours!!
