I realized that we hadn't made any homemade ice cream this year & summer is almost over, so on Sunday we mixed up a batch (I got it right the second time!) and had some friends over for a birthday party. I take no credit for the cake, it was all Sara!
Monday morning we did the Children's Discovery hike early in the morning. It was nice & cool- only 80! Once we entered Red Rock park I rolled down the windows since it was BEAUTIFUL outside. Madisen quickly asked me to roll them up because she was cold- yep 75 degrees is cold to her. 
While we were hiking Bill was working on ANOTHER home improvement project- this snazzy flower bed. He's not so sure about the stark contrast to the desert landscape, but I think that once the flowers fill in it will be an oasis!
And how can Labor Day go by without having a BBQ and doing some swimming? My girls were in heaven swimming in this hot tub. I couldn't even get Madisen out to eat a hot dog. My favorite new phrase of Caitlyn's is, "Wike Madsen". In this case, she needed floaties, wike Madsen- but we could only find 1 spare. She kept saying, "I jump, mom". So she'd jump to me & we'd swim around in a circle, then she'd say, "Do gain, mommy!"

Nice emi.....I love talking to you and I will work on being more chipper;) Also.... ya.. what was that all about?... xoxoxo looking good bill on the oasis... we all loved those oasis in Israel didn't we?
Looks like you all had lots of fun. Tell Bill I can hardly wait to see the new flower bed in the front yard.
Loved being part of your labor day celebration!
I think it's so funny how 75-80 degrees feels cool after living in the hot desert. I am turning into a wimp! :)
