Labor Day Weekend

We had been planning to go up to the Lake house for Labor Day Weekend all summer. Since Brian has been working so much overtime lately, he was particularly looking forward to his weekend off to get away from Imo's for awhile. We drove up late Friday night and Brian wasn't feeling very well by the time we went to bed and by Saturday he was miserable! I think he got the stomach bug the rest of us had a few weeks ago. He didn't leave the house, or the couch for that matter, all weekend long. Poor Brian! The rest of us had a good time. My mom & Bill, the boys & I all went out fishing on Saturday afternoon. Brady caught two fish, Bill caught six, and the rest of us didn't catch any! Although we did get to watch two otters catching dinner for about a half hour, which was very entertaining, especially since I wasn't fishing well. When we got home from fishing we headed down to the annual block party, which is held every year on Labor Day weekend. This year the party had a western theme, last year was a luau, and next year will be a Mexican fiesta--FUN! The kids had a lot of fun and the food was good, but this year they added karaoke to the festivities. Keep in mind that the majority of people who have places up there are over 60, so it was a lot of old people singing Patsy Cline and other artists of yester year, mainly country-western (sticking with the theme). It really wasn't that bad, but it wasn't that good either. Since next year it is a Mexican theme, maybe they will all have to sing in Spanish and salsa dance. Now that's entertainment!
