continue to have a Labor Day party. My husband celebrates his 60th birthday on September 16th, so this year's party would also be a surprise birthday celebration. Our granddaughter was so excited when she heard about the suprise, that she had to get busy. One of the things she was busy with was making a "put the bobber in the fish's mouth" game--similar to "pin the tail on the donkey". She knows how much her grandpa likes to fish and that his cake was going to have a fish theme. We had so much fun playing her game and she was thrilled to hear and see all of us adults laughing and having a great time. It was too much fun and we were laughing until our sides hurt. John and I are blessed with a beautiful and loving family, wonderful friends and a good life--all things that we worked to achieve. Happy Labor Day to all and remember to find some time to enjoy life--after all, we have all worked very hard (and continue to work) to live the American dream.
