Labor Day

Not much labor on this Labor Day.  We started the morning with a nice ferry ride back from Juneau.  We were in Juneau because Aaron had a training/ weekend retreat there.  It ended with some Lemonade and lounging in the sunshine.  We also said a temporary goodbye to Brandi, who is ferrying down to Ketchican to give away her car, flying home to Minnesota to get married and then moving to Louisiana where her bo is from. We had a nice time visiting in the sunshine.

Coach Smith (the Sitka High CC coach) and her girls with me and Ruthann!

The fam, minus the Puffin... she is off exploring!



Sweet Brandi... we sure do miss you already!

Aaron and his baby girl hangin' out in the front yard!

Ruthann with her daddy!

She isn't the best yet at smiling at the camera.  Here she is in her favorite sweater!

Her favorite booties, made by her soon to be Aunt Katie!

So the last few photos feature her sweater made by her little Grandmother Bradford, and the booties that her Aunt Katie knit.  You can also see how excited Ruthann is about going on a walk, so excited in fact that she decided to fall asleep.  She loves adventure, she just doesn't know it yet!  I put her in  her Baby Bjorn (given to us by Aunt Bird) so I could go on a walk with Annie, a pregnant friend of mine.  Ruthann also is excited about meeting Annie's little one in October and going on adventures of her very own with him/her!
