A beautiful day.

The weather today was amazing. The lodge here had their annual Labor Day celebrations for the kids, with fireworks to come in about an hour. Here is Tiff doing the beer case climb, she got to eleven crates before she fell, I think the record today was 24 crates. Hanging out to watch Sissy's climb and enjoy the bouncy castles.

Kids TV area in the lodge, you see Laney and Colby in the back row.

After playing the games all the kids got these animals, I had never heard of them, some sort of animal with smelling things inside. Tiff got a lion, Colby a monkey who he named George and Laney another piggy!

Fishing for goodies.

Colby braved even the biggest bouncy castle (with Sissy encouragement!)

Everything was free, including the horse and carriage rides around the base, very nice. You should hear Laney's horse noise, it is pretty impressive.

The mountains here are amazing. Matt and I toy with asking to transfer here but then I go in the PX and realize that I could not survive a Pusan-sized PX again :)

I don't know what the stars and striped theme has to do with Labor Day, but hey, we are patriots and we don't mind going with the flow!

Racing car game in the carnival.

Texas Tiff braved the bull!

Right around the corner from our room was an awesome playground, the kids enjoyed it and the weather today. Both Laney and Colby were out for the count this evening!

So, should I be upset that I had all three of my kids on one end of the see-saw and me on the other end and we balanced out pretty well????

So, Curtis is here from England and he and Matt took off around 6:30 this morning. The kids and I woke up at 8:30, did a leisurely buffet breakfast followed by indoor pool time, playground time, nap time and lunch time....all this before the afternoon carnival.
