Labor Day Weekend 2016

We spent our last days of summer the same way we started it....at Lake Bluff. The weather was perfect for sweatshirt mornings and sunny afternoons on the boat. There was lots of time to play and take turns snuggling baby Johnny.

Lake Bluff nights when sweatshirts are needed are my favorite. Fall is in the air!

Ollie is not one to miss out on naptime.

I took the quiet moments of nap time to get my heart ready for fall. :)

Juliet met her (third) cousin, Matthew.

These sweet girls love every moment spent by and in the water.

Juliet loved her first boat ride! Her face in this picture says it all...

Abby overcame lots of fears this weekend when she hopped on the tube with Lauren. G-Diddy went very slow and Abby came off the boat giving thumbs up! :)

One of the most memorable parts of the weekend was the girls' dance show. Lauren, Abby and Ella practiced and prepared all weekend. They practiced their dance, made tickets, prepared snacks and invited everyone to their show at the top of the bluff. It was so much fun for the girls to see everyone show up. Even Nana arrived in time for the show! The girls did a great job.

Nana is here! Ella has been helping Nana to her chair since she started walking.
