We had nothing planned for Labor Day --in fact I had no interest in doing anything except clean up the house - that is until Dagney woke up. She knew it was Monday and she did not understand why she was not going to school. I explained to her that it was a holiday and she did not have school today nor did Chad have to go into work. She pressed for more info on "holiday" since most of her life has been one -- she did not know it had a name. Well I said that on "holidays" we get to do fun things. This meant of course that I now had to come up with something "fun" to do on our holiday. I rounded up Beth and Chris and off we went to have some fun. Fun began at the water park in front of the Henderson City building. I thought that we would have all of downtown Henderson to ourselves but some other little boy saw us cavorting in the water and joined us -- I edited him out of my pics -- I mean really, there are way better water parks for little kids to go to. I wanted this urban water park all to myself. After the water park we went for Duncan Doughnuts (they had no sprinkle or glazed) followed by traveling to Boulder City for a impromptu BBQ at my parents. Luckily for me my brother in law (Will) did most of the cooking although I did make cheddar-dill scones. Following the large meal we ended the day by playing ball at the park. I enjoyed the fact that Dagney wore a dress to the park to play ball and Remi wore her Hannah Montana high healed flipflops to play wiffle ball. Always making the right fashion choices those two are. So when it comes to "holidays" we are always going to be having some FUN!!
