Robertson Labor Day Get-Away!

We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend full of family, food, homemade ice cream, games, tractor rides, and laughs. Thanks to my mom for being a great photographer and having her camera ready at all times! I will try to keep the words to a minimum, and let the pictures tell the story...

GG loved rocking with little Juan
