labor day weekend

after we got home from camping

and all showered and cleaned up

we went to lunch at cafe rio and target to get hazel's friend a birthday present

noah offered to wear henry in the ergo 

it was so cute!

 and michael got a picture of me with some cute girls on our way out

 saturday night we went to the balloon glow and hung out with the hunts there

the balloons were so pretty all lit up

 sunday we got ready for church

and eleanor asked me to take their picture

so i did and they were so funny

especially noah....

i love his outfit bytheway

 after church we made an apple pie and started prepping food to can today

i was lucky enough to start my labor day with three cute girls cuddling with me

michael came out of the bathroom and took these pictures for us

 i love these girls and their insistence on being as close to me as possible

today we got up and went back to target (my favorite) but this time was mostly to return a few things

and michael and noah had fun playing with the star wars stuff

we also went and saw shaun the sheep at the dollar theater and grocery shopped at winco

 then we got home and made pear and plum jam

with fruit off our trees

tonight we finished watching the national treasure (we'd started it a couple days ago)

and henry got himself into the doll shopping cart all by himself while holding a book!

talented baby

 eleanor fell asleep about 5 minutes into it

noah, hazel and olive loved the movie

i was worried it would be too scary but they really liked it

i guess they're growing up!

it was a pretty great weekend! i'm so glad we went camping

and canned some jam and had some quality time together as a family
