Happy Labor Day to all my American friends.
This is my first time to celebrate this holiday since 2009.
The first time to participate in a BBQ since 2009.
The first time to watch the Braves play baseball (on TV) since 2009.
And all this with my 2 kids, SIL and grandson in Atlanta!
Let’s just say I’m one happy camper.
(And to keep you in suspenders,
next time I’ll tell you how Astrid and I did indeed dance our feet off at The Farm Wedding!)
Labor Day,
Tradition. Family

I am beyond thrilled that you and Astrid were able to dance your feet off.
Good to know you are having a good time. I have enjoyed the pictures on Facebook
And - a Happy Labor Day to you too!! Great to hear you're enjoying your time on this side of the pond!!!
Absolutely LOVE the photo and so pleased that you had such a great time.
Oh how I love this larger photo here on V&V as it provides much more detail! Have a wonderful holiday and continue to dance!
sooooo warm and rich, this.
thanks for the beautiful share,

Oh, you party girls! Sure sounds like you're doing all the right things ... thanks for this gorgeous image!
Carry on now!
Love this photo and the foreign words for each bit of produce.
It's wonderful that you are able to enjoy this time with family and friends! I'll look forward to reading about that dance...
I always enjoy being at this side of the pond. I also know that you love the Netherlands, however I know that you miss the special events to celebrate with family in the USA. I am glad that this year we were able to meet most of the family and celebrate a wedding and Labor Day.
And yes, did we dance, my watch stopped at 9.12 PM, I thought the evening was still young. You are my dancing queen :)
A great picture with the quote.
Great way to send quintescential Labor Day wishes!
You just make me smile! I love your enthusiasm for life and ALL the good things that come along. Enjoy all the GOOD things that come along with this spectacular trip to Atlanta.

I am sooo glad you were able to dance your feet off, I am so looking forward to hearing more about that :-)

Oh Ginnie, I'm so glad that you and Astrid were able to dance your feet off! (So what are the two of you doing now without feet? ;-) )
I knew I should have read this before my comment on the blog! Needless to say I'm delighted that you both had a good time - and I like your atmospheric autumn shot.
