As is often the case, the weather wasn’t great on Labor Day weekend. We weren’t too bothered though, we managed to fill it up.
We took a road trip to visit Grandma Jackie. We were hoping she could make the trip up to see us, but it’s just too long of a drive for her anymore. Didn’t matter in the end, we just enjoy her company regardless of where it’s at!
The nice thing about going to Kzoo to visit, is we drive right past MSU on the way home. We originally were going to do a quick drop in so the cousins could see the dorm room, but Adrienne asked if we wanted to go to dinner(and take her to Kroger:) so we happily obliged!
There’s a theater in the basement of Adrienne’s dorm and Sof and Nat didn’t waste any time making use of it!
Chili’s is our go to spot for dinner because we like to eat an absurd amount of chips and salsa!
In keeping with our theme of gluttony we stopped at Starbucks on the way home!
We were about to enjoy the next day at home with nothing to do, but Liz and Scott had some U2 tickets that we couldn’t pass up. It’s not really my taste in music, but I always love a reason to go out!
On Monday, we felt pressure to get the boat out one more time. Had we known it was going to be 90 for most of September we would have let it go! It was short lived, but we did it!
The kids were determined too. They wanted that last tube ride! It lasted maybe 5 minutes and they waved the white flag. It was too windy and wavy for even them! We made the best of it and enjoyed our lunches!
That is the tale of our last boat ride that really wasn’t the last boat ride.
Note to self: Chill out with the pressure to jam every last summer activity into Labor Day weekend. It will get warm again in September and you’ll be doing it all again.
