Brian ~ Since the founder of labor day was born here, we make a pretty big deal of it. :) But we don't get fireworks on July 4th as a result...tiny village, tiny budget. ha.
Hi Betsy!! Very glad you found my blog so I could find yours!! So nice to meet other mothers with ALL boys too! :-) I know what it's like to be soooo out numbered! lol
Nice pictures & glad you had a great weekend!
I'm looking forward to reading more of your post & following of course! I love your attitude about life! :-)
No parade for us. Since a third of our jobs are Federal paychecks, Labor contributions seem forgotten sometimes.
I was telling my husband about your boys and their ear covers. He shoots and has them for that purpose, but I thought he would be interested in the purpose they serve for your boys.
Ananchorage ~ Hi Gloria! Using those headsets has really improved our boys' quality of life. Alex uses them the most and it has freed up his hands so he can work at school. I just happened to stumble across that idea from another mother in a chat room and am so glad that I did!

ReplyDeleteOh ... how I miss the parades of my youth. I played flute in our band and it was a Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day tradition.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures, hope you had a lovely Labor day.;)

ReplyDeleteYour parade and fireworks seem like pure Americana. Looks like you and your family had a wonderful Labor Day!

ReplyDeleteCoreen ~ Hi and thanks for stopping by! Loved your blog and I'm looking forward to getting to know you!
ReplyDeleteI judge a camera by how great it takes fireworks. It's a good camera. You have to love a parade.
ReplyDeleteWhat a glorious weekend here yes?? Oh my! I spy my boys in the one picture...the parade was a good one!
ReplyDeleteAnd, the fireworks were the best!
Sounds just wonderful...all that it should be! :D

Looks like everyone enjoyed the day! Ours was a very quiet one...much needed rest from all the earlier activities in the long weekend.

ReplyDeleteReminds me of the movie "Born on the Fourth of July."
