labor day

For the last few years, we've been getting together with my family for Labor Day weekend. This year was spent in Lincoln City at the same house we stayed at last year. Ben, Karen, and the kids didn't get to come this year. We definitely miss getting to see them!

We spent the weekend playing games, eating good food, watching BSU football, playing on the beach, and celebrating birthdays.

Since I can remember, my Grandpa and I have shared our birthday party. My birthday is September 4 and his is September 10. We also celebrated my cousins, Daniel and Sarah's birthdays.

It's such a crazy, chaotic time, but I look forward to it every year! This year we were blessed with a beautiful, sunny Saturday. The kids had a blast playing in the sand, and I got some great pictures! I absolutely love how the pictures capture the kids joy and the beautiful blue sky!
