Labor Day

We started the day on Labor Day with a fun picnic to a really cool "new spot" that I found up in Davidson, called Fisher Farm Park. A gorgeous open expansive "field" that rolls down and around lots of trees and other natural areas. It really is a cool spot. We decided to have a picnic out there with our friends, the Ferrells. The kids had a blast running around and playing softball and picking up all the things they found laying around (leaves, flowers, gumballs, bamboo pieces, etc). It was a gorgeous day and we had lots of fun.






Then, we ended with a black party back on our street! We have the best neighborhood ever and always have such fun when everyone comes out to hang out! We set up the projector for the kids and showed "Toy Story". The kids thought it was the coolest thing ever! They couldn't get over how BIG Woody and Buz were on the garage door! We were all completely exhausted at the end of the day. But, of course, the guys couldn't let the projector set-up go to waste once the kids movie was over...so they decided to have a late night showing of the "Die Hard" movie on the driveway. And since the movie is based a lot at night and in dark scenes, the street light that sits right by our property was bothering their viewing. This didn't stop the men! They just climbed up a ladder and stuck a huge black plastic bag over the lamppost. No worries. All was well :)
