Labour Day Long Weekend


We had a great long weekend, making sure to put the last days of summer to good use.

On Sunday, Matthew and I went to see Planes, IN THE THEATER. Which was super cool and exciting until about 15 minutes into the movie. But let me tell you, I was not going to let $25 worth of movie tickets and snacks go to waste so we sat through the entire thing!

 Saturday night and Sunday night we camped in the backyard. This basically meant that Alex slept in his crib and when it got pretty close to dark, Matthew and I went out to sleep in the tent. It was fine the first night but the second night my back was not appreciative of the little air mattress separating it from the ground. Lucky for me the baby monitor went dead around 11:30 so I carried Matthew into the house and got to spend the night in bed!!

 On Monday we went to Chuck E. Cheese (because I couldn't bear/bare? to be in the house all day)then headed to the pool for the last dip of the season. I consoled myself that if the weather holds and we want more sun/swim time we can always go to the beach now that Alex is mostly past the eating sand phase. 

The picture was taken at the pool and I think really reflects how happy these little boys make me. Now I know what they mean when they say "I would die for you". Without hesitation.
