My favorite holiday has got to be Labor day weekend,
which also happens to be my town's Onion Days.
Last year I had to work through almost the whole thing,
so this year I was ready to soak it all up.
The festivities start on Friday night with the
annual fiesta at my parents house.
my parents are AH-MAZING cooks,
especially Mexican.
I look forward to it all year.
chimichangas
taquitos
smothered burritos
brazilian limeade
homemade salsa
mmmm
after stuffing ourselves, we head over to the jr high for the fireworks.
they were exceptionally awesome this year
owen was very impressed
on monday, we go to the onion days parade.
we have the coolest uncle Al who makes sure everyone gets
PLENTY of candy.
i think people try to sit near us every year just for
the crazy man who throws candy out of his cart between floats
^^ Owen wasn't sure about us letting him sit in the back
after the parade we went to g.g. and grandpa bob's for a bbq
and then hit up the park to look at the booths and watch the entertainment.
owen got sooo tired at the park, he ended up falling asleep in my arms,
which hardly ever happens.
i soaked it up, and may or may not have held him on the short car ride home ;)
^^ check out those lashes!
we went home and put him to bed at 5
i wanted to wake him up at 8 to eat dinner and take a bath
to make sure he wouldn't wake up super early,
but he would have none of it.
so we let him sleep.
clark and his brother watched some lame boy movie downstairs,
and i got to relax and watch some Private Practice upstairs.
the perfect ending to the perfect long weekend :)
