Labor Day Get Away

We headed up to Almanor for a Labor Day get away to enjoy the cooler weather (though it was still plenty warm) and the relaxing pace.

What we loved about it....

slowing down,
playing, laughing,
time together--no distractions.

fishing at sunset,
catching nearly nothing,
yet eyes that glare with strategy.

sipping coffee,
jammies till mid-morning,
petting the dog just because you have nothing better to do.

reading nonsense magazines,
jump rope and jacks,
nap time mid-day for Daddys.

football on t.v.,
football on the back lawn,
and a crazy dog who thinks he's a linebacker.

staying up a little later,
snuggling, smores and stars,
knowing no alarm clock will bring our morning to start.
