Labor Day Festivities
Once again the family headed out to the Lake House for our annual Labor Day weekend of fun. Jason's dad put together a huge list of tailgate party activities for everyone. Our little family usually shy's away from all the cheesey BYU stuff, but since this may be our last tailgate party weekend I figured we should probably represent.
I like to give a big Thank You to my friend Jamie Walker who supplied the entire family with BYU shirts for the weekend. How sad is that we don't own even one shirt!
Jason wrote us a pretty interesting cheer for the cheer competition, which we did not win. BOO!
He also cheated and still managed to lose the BYU trivia round. Cheaters never prosper, HA!
He came pretty close to winning the obstacle course though. GO JASON!
The kids had a great time as always. Adelaide had fun hanging out with her cousins, and had a cousins sleepover that she was super excited about. Ivy spent most of the weekend in the house playing, and Emilie had fun swimming in the lake. Carmella, was simply a happy little two year old. Eating ice cream and candy, and making messes, yep that sums up her weekend.
And now some photos of the obstacle course.

Second Day of School
Yes, that's right. I can't be a normal mother who takes first day of school photos. At least not this year. I have an 8 am class, so Jason took the girls to school on their first day, and they weren't even ready when I left for class. So, I had to settle for second day of school photos. Now, let's just forget the fact that I'm three weeks late posting them. I can't stand all this judging. Give a busy mom a break, okay!
Also, I should probably address the fact that I just couldn't bring myself to take the traditional smile at the camera as the little darlings eagerly head out to school. I couldn't help but notice this year that everyone seemed to love the same idea that I'm sure someone saw on Pintrest. You know the one. The adorable smiling child holding up the sign or yes, possibly a chalkboard, with the year of school written on it. No, I just couldn't do it! I've never really been one to follow the crowd. So, here I present my somewhat tongue-in-cheek alternative. I think this better represents the true nature of my children.

ok, maybe just one cutsie smiling one, for the grandparents.
