Hey there! As I was starting to write this post, I started thinking about Labor Day. How did it start? Why do we celebrate it? I googled it, of course, and in a nutshell, this is what I found on Wikipedia:
Labor Day in the United States is a public holiday celebrated on the first Monday in September. It honors the American labor movement and the contributions that workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of their country.
I also found that some originally wanted to celebrate it on May 1, but the first Monday in September was chosen instead. How weird would it have been to have two national holidays observed in the same month? I glad they chose to "bookend" summer with Memorial Day and Labor Day!
I'm still vacationing with my hubby in Branson, MO, today, but we will be heading home tonight. I don't have a creation to share with you right now, just the Labor Day origin info (hope your'e not too disappointed), but I WILL be back tomorrow with a new card, the second in my series using the Acorny Thank You set! Please come back tomorrow!
Tomorrow will also be Tuesday, so there will be new Weekly Deals, yay!
Here's the link to my online store where you will find the current Weekly Deals and the Clearance Rack in addition to the Annual and Holiday Catalog links:
Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
