Monday was Labor Day! We didn't do anything as a family but I did have a booth at the Farmer's Market from 4 to 9 and Kevin, Beth, and Ben visited me and we all had dinner from food trucks! Fun times! Megan and Ammon came by, too, which was super fun! I sold two things all night but everyone assured me that it was very slow because of Labor Day. I'm signed up to do all the Mondays in September so we will see what tomorrow brings!

Tuesday was back to school. Ben is getting more comfortable and liking school more. He's getting better at 8-square (the game they play during lunch) so that makes lunch more fun! Bethany went back to cross country practice and they both had karate that day.

Wednesday Mariah came for a visit! Ok, she really came to be a bridesmaid in her friend's wedding, but we got to see her! 

The wedding was Thursday so Riah was busy most of the day with the wedding, the lunch, and then the reception, but we saw her inbetween! And we went to the reception and it was lovely.

Friday was Beth's first cross country meet of the year and Mariah was still here! Yay! So, Mariah picked up Chey and Cali from their respective apartments and Sarah came up from hers and Kevin and I and Ben and Savannah were there and so was Grandma and Grandpa. Beth had quite the crowd of cheering fans! She had a hard time not laughing when she passed us the first time! She did great and it was so fun.

Afterwards, I picked up Megan who got back from working in SLC and Kevin bought Jimmy Johns (Beth's favorite) for the whole family who was suddenly together! Yay! Then, as a wonderful bonus, McKay was playing for Springville's first ever Art Festival and we all went and listened to his concert. What a great family activity! Mariah had to drive home that night but we were so glad we got the visit!

Saturday, Kevin was the keynote speaker at a sex-addiction conference and needed to be in SLC until 2:00. Ben had tennis lessons in the morning and listened to Harry Potter for most of the rest of the day. Bethany volunteered to help at the Art Festival with our young women's group in the afternoon. At 4:00, Kevin and I met in SLC to see The Unsinkable Molly Brown at the Hale Theatre. It was really fun. That night, we watched BYU's first home football game on the television while Cali watched it in person at the stadium! They won! Go cougars!
