We made the most out of Labor Day this year.  We started off the day with a family run to a nearby park, where Brooke and I stayed and played while Laura ran a few more miles as she continues to train for the Marine Corps Marathon for this coming October in Washington DC.  Then after Brooke’s nap we all went to the beach to enjoy one of the most beautiful days we’ve had there in a while, splashing in the waves, relaxing on the sand and enjoying each others company.  Afterwards, we went to Dairy Queen and had ice cream, even Brooke got her own cone.  For dinner we grilled burgers and had some tasty sides.  Then to finish out the day we took a family bike ride around our neighborhood.  It was quite the fun-filled day.
