Labor day weekend seems like the kick off for fall. All the sudden the air is a little crisp, sun is going down earlier and everyone including preschoolers are back in school.
Labor day weekend forces you to go and do something fun before it's too late! We did just that! We enjoyed activities all week long that took us outside to enjoy the scenery one last time. We went to the lake twice on Saturday and learned a little late in the year that maybe night skiing is the best chance you'll get for smooth water at Jordan Elle. By the time Monday rolled around is was time to get some things around the house and yard done.
We spent the afternoon pulling weeds and small trees from the concrete and backyard. We filled two garbage cans just three hours after bringing in from the street. It felt so good to be outside working so hard, I loved being able to look around after and be able to see what a difference your hard work made.
Most of all it made me so excited for the future when Sam and I will have a yard of our own and we can spend afternoons slaving away to reap the benefits later in the year. That day will come, someday when we know where PA school will take us. Until then I'm happy taking care of the yard that I do have. sorry I didn't get it done before I had the young women's over.

I was delighted when I finally got out of the house yesterday to go grocery shopping and I noticed how good it looked in the backyard.
Good job roomie!!
Hopefully you didn't see me in my underwear (through the window, that is) while you were in the backyard. I was in crazy-woman mode putting together our other bedroom.
