Labor Day weekend!

On Saturday, Ace Hardware in Hendersonville had their own way of celebrating the Apple Festival and Labor Day! They were giving hot dogs, pop corn, snow cones and drinks away for a $1 donation to the Red Cross. So Jeff and I met Emily and the boys there for an early lunch... and then Caleb got to play in the bouncy tent!
Climbing another blow-up thing - and sliding down over the tubes - head first!
The net at the bottom keeps the kids from tumbling on out (supposedly.)
Adam played in his stroller in the shade of the tent... many mouth movements! Later, Caleb got to toss a ball at a pyramid of cans! He knocked some over both times!
Saturday afternoon, we met Bennett and Stephanye and went hiking to some waterfalls in Brevard... this is seen from underneath the rock outcropping.
Bennett and Stephanye climbed up the side path to get a different perspective on the waterfall.
Another shot from underneath...
Another visitor took our picture!
Bennett and Stephanye strike a pose!
Several hundred yards away was another waterfall. Unnamed...
On Labor Day, we went to the Apple Festival in Hendersonville. This has been a tradition since Emily and Eric moved there. A Freeman family portrait.
Just look at the grin on Adam's face in this one! He ended up getting rather warm and was out of his cute outfit and just in a diaper by the time we left!
A law enforcement officer and another person from Mayberry showed up before the parade.
Doesn't he favor Barney???
A fun day was had by all! Then we went back to Emily and Eric's for spaghetti and salad. And to enjoy a little Food Channel programming.

Loved the Labor day pics. Stay close to each other, time passes too quickly. We always had fun, now we just watch ball games and have fun that way. LOL. Love all of you and God sure has blessed us all.
