The weather turned out rather nice. Friday was a warm 90 degrees, perfect for going boating with our friends, the Merricks.

Saturday was also a warm sunny day, and we took the kids up near Silver City for a horse ride.

Sunday was about 20 degrees cooler and horribly windy, so we pretty much stayed home and relaxed.
Monday the temperature was in the pleasant 70's, and we took the kids to Bruneau Dunes State Park. We had a picnic, let the kids run along the shore, and hiked to the top of one of the sand dunes. We came home with way more than our fair share of sand!
Then we cleaned up and headed over to a friends house to watch the Boise State vs. Virginia Tech football game. We have several friends who made the trek to the Washington DC area to see the game in person, but being that we bleed a normal Crimson color (Go WSU Cougs!) rather than blue and orange, we were content to watch the game on tv with the kiddos.
It did turn out to be game well-worth watching. The BSU Broncos pulled out a victory with under 2 minutes to go in the 4th quarter. Thanks Wadsworth family for a fun game night!
All in all we had a wonderful Labor Day weekend, and we did it all close to home.

Melissa did I read that right "protect the baby bump"? I looked back through your blog and either I am out of the loop or you are just being sly. If it is true congradulations!!!
Kalle- you did read it right, and I am expecting... 19 weeks along and due February 9th. I mentioned it at the very bottom of my Park City Marathon post. But since it was such a LONG post I didn't think that many people would catch it.
Feb 9th is lexi's bithday! Thats a good day. Looks like you had a fun weekend. It's hard not being with family for holidays. We never get the option so we re use to haveing to do things on our own. Sometimes it turns out to be great like it looks like your weekend did. Your kids are darling. Can't wait to see #4.
