Labor Day Weekend

Saturday evening, we went to watch the demolition derby. It was the first time the kids have watched a derby, so I was a little nervous to take them both by myself. (I didn't want to chase after them all night). We ended up sitting in the back of a friend's pickup (bleacher seating was all full by the time we got there - right before it started).
It worked out really well. The kids loved watching the derby. They liked seeing daddy working as an official. (he is the one in the yellow vest!)




























Sunday night, we watched the fireworks.






































Monday was the parade. We went to a friend's house to help celebrate Ava's 3rd birthday, and since they live right on the parade route, we could watch right from there. The weather was beautiful and sunny (we should have had sunscreen - but it has been so cool, that I didn't think of it).




























After the parade, we had Tinkerbell cake and the kids played on the trampoline.
