Labor Day

Poor Victor spent most of the long weekend working. We did manage to take advantage of a few Labor Day sales and had a good time shopping.

While Vic was slaving away at work the boys and I packed a picnic and went with some friends to a night time hot air balloon show. Our city hosts one almost every year and it is so much fun to watch. We really do live in the best city with so many fun activities and events to attend.

Playing around in the park.

Conner holding up a giant coke bottle- ha ha

Mason trying to sneak some goodies out of the picnic basket.

The little one's favorite balloon!

At night, the balloons don't take flight (it is to dangerous) but they do a "light up the night" show all to music. The boys loved it! When we got home Mason and Zack said, "Dat sooo awesome. I like the big balloons! Want to do dat again tomorrow."

A section of the long lines of hot air balloons all a glow. The line of them was probably 1/2 - 3/4 mile long. It was such a fun show!

Boise State also kicked the season off with a BIG win! We had about twenty friends over for a FABULOUS pulled pork dinner (one that took me 18 hrs to smoke!) and to cheer on the boys in blue and orange. The boys were so excited for the game and for people to come over. They are like Victor and myself, we love company! Especially when it involves a big win for BSU! The boys sing the BSU fight song like old pros, it is the cutest!

The boys anxiously awaiting for kick off and our guests to arrive.

Needless to say we are looking forward to a wonderful football season!
