As with a lot of people, I really love Fall.  But this year I've decided that September is officially the best month out of the year.  Still warm enough to do all of the things I love, but cool enough to enjoy being outside.  We found ourselves with a free weekend and decided to take advantage.  Steve was awesome to go along with whatever I had in mind.  

Friday I decided that the homecoming game wasn't worth the effort with little kids.  Especially because it wasn't going to be a very good game.  So we called the Francoms and headed to Recapture instead.  The water is definitely getting colder.  Parker cried when he jumped in, but Steve just pulled in ladder and told him to suck it up and get on the knee board.  I think Parker would agree that it wasn't too cold after a minute or two.  

Bronsen now weighs enough  that he can criss-cross the wake with ease.  He has started doing what he calls the "sideways boogie" so hopefully next year he will master a 360.   

Saturday we went to the best place on earth . . . "the mountain".  We took 4-wheelers up the Camp Jackson trail.  What awesome views there are on that trail, especially with the leaves starting to change.  

Then we headed down to "The Grove" for a picnic lunch.  

Pretty much a perfect day!  (for a small town girl like me)

We finally made it to Lake Powell this summer!!  

Steve's family and friends always go to the lake on Labor Day. This year Laici and Tyrel came down early and we got to have a day or two with just the Snyders.  Minus Mark and Madison, we missed you guys.  But it was a lot of fun.  The kids just love it down there.

We did a lot of this!

Look at that proud daddy!

Not much labor in this Labor Day weekend for us!  

Sienna has been so excited to start preschool.  I swear each one of my kids grows up a little faster.  Bronsen seemed so young when he was three, and Sienna seems so very ready to take on the world. Not the best picture of her (she cut her own bangs) but I guess that's how memories are made.
