Labor Day 2011

We ended the summer by spending a few hours on Utah Lake in Pa's canoe. It was a beautiful day for canoeing and everyone had lots of fun!

Adam got to take the first ride of the day with Aunt Katy and Uncle Matt.

Tessa was so anxious for her turn! She waited so patiently!

Aunt Katy and Uncle Matt played "Chicken" with the kids.

Tessa is finally in the canoe! She was pretty mad we wouldn't let her paddle.

My brilliant siblings decided to capture a floating log in the middle of the water. (The water was freezing!)

But they got it!

Our sunbathing beauty!

Then they decided to turn the log into their own canoe. Adam was pretty bummed when they didn't go anywhere on it.

Uncle Ben getting sunburned

While Tessa waiting for her turns in the canoe she decided to start digging for treasure with a paddle. We asked her what she was doing and she said, (like a pirate) "I need treasure!!"

Ares decided to get in on the action too.

Thanks everyone for a fun Labor Day!
