Labor Day Weekend in the Country

For labor day weekend we headed to Southwest Virginia. The first stop was to see Uncle Mike... ... and Aunt Ieda. We went with them to Macado's for lunch. I remember eating at the old location when I was in high school and then the current location when I was an undergraduate student at Tech and then later when Chris and I first started dating. Now I see it as a great place to take little kids.
We spent the weekend at my parent's house.
Wesley and Lydia were excited to go on a walk soon after we got there.

They like running around in the big fields.

Time for a quick rest break.

Here is Wesley with my mom.

My aunt Estelle.

I had Josiah wrapped up with a blanket because it was a little chilly there.

This is what I ate for breakfast on Sunday. I didn't eat the whole thing but I had a huge a piece of ice cream cake. We went to brunch at Chateau Morrisette which was a buffet full of yummy food. That evening my mom and I walked up and down her driveway five times. I hope that three mile walk helped burn off some of those calories.

The kids also cake for breakfast and then at lunch time they had waffles with whipped cream and syrup at the winery. They thought it was a great day.

Before going to brunch, we went to Mabry Mill.

My uncle Kenneth (who was also celebrating his birthday), Estelle, Mom, and Dad.

It was a great weekend. Here is a short video of Wesley practicing hula hooping.
