Labor Day

We had such a fun Labor Day! Jake took Friday off, plus he was off Monday, so we had a jam-packed 4 day weekend together. Now he's back at work and we miss him already! 
On Friday we went to check on the house, met Brad to look at flooring (see last post), picked up some pillow inserts so I could sew some covers, and went on a date! 

On Saturday we made a trip out to the zoo. That was more for Jake and I, but we like to pretend it was for Ryan. ;) 

 
 

  

 We also went to Sprinkler World to get a sprinkler plan engineered. Jake's going to install them as soon as our driveway and sidewalk are poured, and then we can lay sod and plant the perennials we bought. 

On Saturday we locked in our mortgage rate, and went to find Jake a truck. We found a screamin deal and this beaut may or may not be coming home with us today. Needless to say, he's stoked!

 
Sunday was church and naps and a whole lot of nothin. 

On Monday we went on a hike. We had planned to just stroll around Silver Lake and then see how Ryan was doing, but it was PACKED (Labor Day, duh.) Wanting to avoid the masses, we broke off onto a random trail we saw. We asked some people coming down where it led to, and apparently we were hiking to Lake Solitude! We hiked a mile and a half up, and then decided to turn back around cause Ryan was starting to get super tired and cranky. He probably would have made it the rest of the way after I nursed him, but we didn't want to risk him screaming the whole way down. ;) 
I wore him on my back up, and Jake wore him down.
 

 
 

 

 
The air was crisp and the leaves have started to change! 

 
We can't wait to go back next year when Ryan is cruising all over the place.
