It's always great to have beautiful weather on the Labour Day weekend, and we managed to get very lucky this year. It was a fantastic weekend, so there was plenty of splashing and swimming in our yard to bring an end to the summer. The kids just couldn't get enough, and spend literally the whole weekend playing in the pool.
We had Doug, Nicole, Rachael and Emma over on Sunday afternoon to share in the fun and frolic in the pool, and for a bar-b-que afterwards. Once it was too cold for swimming, the girls headed inside for some dressing up in princess clothes - my girls definitely don't have to be asked twice to join in princess play. 
Evan, on the other hand, wasn't interested in that, so he spread out his Yu-Gi-Oh cards and tried to convince anyone he could to play a match with him. As usual, Stephen and Doug spent a lot of the time talking about music and computers, and digging through Stephen's mp3 collection trying to name a song that he didn't have (not much success there!)We had a lemon meringue pie for dessert, which allowed Alicia to discover what is now one of her favourite foods on earth! "I could eat it a million days!" she said!
It was a wonderful weekend and as nice a way to end the summer as there could be. Although we're sorry to see it go, it's always nice to pile those brand new school supplies into backpacks and get the kids back into a routine.
