End of summer shopping and swimming

I can't believe Labor Day, the unofficial end of summer, is here already! We had a super fun family day today. It was so nice for us all to be together. This morning we went to Leesburg Corner outlets. I love sidewalk sales and almost always find a deal. We actually didn't buy a single thing there today though. But Brett was able to get the extra links removed from his new watch....and it was fun just walking around.

Thumbs up for sidewalk sales!

Taking time to smell, well grab and crush, the flowers. :)
The boys are exhausted.

Last day of summer, first time at the pool
After shopping and lunch, we played and lounged around at home for a bit. Then we decided to finally take Brady to our neighborhood fountain pool. We've lived here for over 4 years (that's 4 summers, 4 pool seasons), and have never been to the pool! I only just got my pool pass last week (Brett still does not have one). So it took having a child and it being the last day of his first summer to finally get us there. haha! Man, we were missing out! What a bummer that we didn't take him sooner! He LOVED it!

Hi Mom!
