Labor Day 2010

We got lucky and got to go to San Diego for Labor Day weekend!  Sadly, Alex didn't join us, but Brad and I and Danny and Ryan had a great time.  We spent some time at the beach on Saturday afternoon.  It was kind of cloudy but plenty warm.  However, the water was colder than Brad had ever remembered it so they didn't really get in the water.  We had a great time eating and being lazy and just plain enjoying the weather.

We had to celebrate the fact that it has been 10 years since I had my freak accident in the ocean!  We drove up to Orange County to eat at the Crab Cooker and take some pictures.  We also stopped at the park that we love in Dana Point.  We had a great time and didn't want to come back to the hot weather.
This is Capistrano Beach where I destroyed my leg
Here is the hospital that I spent 5 days at - only it was called San Clemente Hospital, or something like that.  So glad that is all over with (even though I'll live with the effects of it forever)

Labor Day Break

On Labor Day weekend, we were lucky enough to borrow a friend's cabin for a few days. We wanted to get out of the heat and we were selfish and wanted Taylor to ourselves for a few days before he left on his mission. We went to Pinetop, not very far from Don's cabin. We ate Mexican food and watched the BYU game, relaxed, played games, went to church, and spent a little time in the mountains up by Green's Peak. We took hot dog fixins' and found a little place to build a fire. As soon as it was time to cook the hotdogs, it started raining. We got them cooked anyway - and after it stopped raining we spent some nice time in the woods. It was so relaxing! We always miss Emily though!
It was hard to start a fire because everything was so damp. The boys had to show me how manly they were! In the picture you see Alex playing with his hair. He had his head so close blowing on the fire that he actually burned some of his hair!

Camping face (a joke in our family!)

All my boys :)
