Little on Labor Day

Labor Day is a holiday from work so technically it should be called no-labor day or laborless day but I guess all that matters is that we did not labor. So in honoring with the labor free attitude, I'll make this post brief- thus saving time and manual labor for myself .

We spent the long weekend at the cabin in Cedar. Saturday we went to the Iron County Fair. Some good entertainment, fried food and a couple of fun buys. The kids wanted to go on a couple of carnival rides, but at a dollar a ticket and four tickets for a ride, I talked them out of it. What a rip! We drove over the mountain and stopped to visit the Ruesch's in Duck Creek. They were having truck trouble, so we helped them out a bit.
Jace came across the fresh carcass of a deceased squirrel at the Ruesch's cabin

Later that evening my parents, the Ruesch's, the Hollingsworth's and our family had dinner at the Pizza Factory.

Sunday we hung around the cabin, went into town and ate at Topspot w/ the Hollingsworth's, then went up to Navajo Lake

Lauren and Abi at Topspot


Jason's dad joined us at Navajo Lake and brought his little boat.

Sunday night the Hollingsworth's stayed at the cabin and the Ruesch's and came by and we all ate some stew Jason's dad brought up made with veggies from his garden. We played a few rounds of scum til the wee hours.
Monday we hung around, broke out the 4-wheelers then finally cleaned up and headed for home. We went over to my parents that night for a family swim party. That was it!!
