Monday, September 7, 2009 at 12:31AM Hey there. Hope you're all having a lovely Labor Day weekend! We've been very much enjoying our three day weekend...which happened also to be a rare weekend without soccer games. ;) Saturday, we just hung out...lunch out, playing at the park, getting things done around the house. Today (Sunday), we headed back up to Rocky Mountain National Park (making good use of that annual pass!) to wander the Alluvial Fan area. Had this fun little book/adventure to follow to start with (it's called "Trouble in the Rubble" and is like a mini-field trip guide...we did this a couple years ago also, but Nathan wasn't with us that time). Nathan and the boys read and paced and learned about the rocks (the area truly is fascinating!)...
Then (since this time we weren't bound to paths due to a stroller), we climbed. I didn't take heaps of pictures (odd, I know, but I was using the little camera...didn't want to lug the good one up the side of the mountain, lol) but here's roughly the view from where we got to before deciding to head back down (more because of the thunder and potential rain than from boys wanting to go back down):
Yes, those little colored dots are people. ;)
Anyhow, we stopped at Dick's Rock Museum on our way out of town (such an awesome shop!), made it home despite crazy lots of traffic and even managed to get all three boys bathed before bed. :) Good times.
No big plans for tomorrow...which is actually very nice. How about you? What does/did your Labor Day weekend look like?
