Scenes from a Labor Day Weekend

Hi all five of you who read this blog ;)

How was your weekend? Hope it was lovely and full of good friends such as mine was.


B got off early on Friday so we grabbed a bite to eat at the ever-cute Jackson Market. They have really yummy made-to-order sandwiches and the vibe of the place is so cool and laid-back too. A perfect start to a long weekend!


From there we meandered over to a few paint stores before landing at Home Depot. Here's B sawing off a piece of baseboard to take back to the house for comparison and matching purposes. We've learned recently that owning a home comes with many, many, many new experiences such as this one. :)


Saturday was full of celebration as the women of our family "showered" my cousin P with a special time to honor her and the soon-to-be arrival of her baby girl. It will be the first child of the next generation in our family and we are all oh-so-excited! 


The fam on my Mom's beautifully decorated back porch.


Monday was our annual Church Labor Day picnic with softball, frisbee, food and games for the little ones. These two photos make me smile and capture some of the fun of the day!



Directly after the picnic these wonderful people came out to help B and I move all of my stuff and furniture from my apartment over to the new place. We were very grateful for all of their help! 
*And yes, they all worked hard. My cousin and "cousin" were the beast movers of the day (as noted by their bare-chested glory in the first pic) although everyone worked hard to get us all moved out in one afternoon. God always provides!

One laborious Labor Day down :)
