Labor Day with family and friends









Little Foot chasing the water hose!


I hope everyone enjoyed their Labor Day holiday.  It turned out to be a beautiful weekend. You can feel fall in the air. The mornings are chilly again and the days are still warm, but not too hot. A perfect day for a cookout!  We spent the day out on my deck, enjoying the food, wine and conversation.


I made chocolate covered strawberries.  I've never attempted this before, but I love these and have always wanted to try making them.  Not bad for my first try, next time I can get a little more creative and do white chocolate stripes or dip them in chopped almonds or coconut or something yum.  I'm going to do them again next weekend and see what I come up with.  They were the biggest hit of the day!  :)
