Labor Day Link Up Time!

Don’t let the summer end quite yet! Post your Labor Day or “End of Summer” pictures and LINK UP! Then jump through the linkies and party virtually.

At 5 Minutes for Mom, we are all about helping YOU get to know each other better! So, we love to bring you regular “link ups” where you add the URL to one of your posts to our linkies. Then you can visit others and others can find you.

Yes, we are just momosphere-party-central around here!

Today, we are celebrating Labor Day with you and our fabulous sponsor, Simply Heinz â„¢ .

 
Simply-Heinz-KetchupSince Labor Day goes hand and hand with barbequing, we wanted to tell you about Heinz’ new Simply Heinzâ„¢ Tomato Ketchup, which is made with sugar, instead of high fructose corn syrup.

Enter to win a $100 Gift Card and One Year’s Supply of Simply Heinz

To add to the Link Up fun, we have TWO giveaways in our Labor Day weekend with Simply Heinzâ„¢..

In both giveaways, the prizes are $100 gift cards and one year’s supply of Simply Heinzâ„¢. ketchup (coupons for 12 free bottles).

In the first giveaway this weekend, I asked, “What are your Labor Day plans or traditions?”

For today’s giveaway, we have a Linky for you to join in and share your Labor Day or “End of Summer” posts. If you aren’t a blogger, you can always share about your Labor Day in a comment below. We will DRAW THE RANDOM WINNER FROM THE COMMENTS so please make sure you leave a comment when you add your link to the linky!

BOTH giveaways are open until September 17th, 2010
, so feel free to enter both.

This giveaway is open from September 6th, 2010, to September 17th, 2010. We will announce our winners on Saturday, September 18th. This giveaway is open to U.S. residents 18 years of age or older at the time of entry and is void where prohibited by law.

Thanks so much for taking the time to TWEET or SPREAD the word about our giveaways and Link Ups. Linking makes the blogosphere go ’round. So if you hit the Twitter button or the Facebook buttons for us, THANKS! And since you didn’t have to do it, way to go on the great bloggy karma!

For more information about our giveaways, please see our site’s terms and conditions of use.

Add Your Link Below

Add the URL to your Labor Day or “End of Summer” post below. Your post does not have to mention anything about this post or contest or link back. Although we REALLY appreciate if you do! We want to provide this linky to you so you can share your post and find others to enjoy.

Please Note: Simply Heinzâ„¢ is sponsoring our Labor Day Link Up. Our opinions, as usual, are ALL ours!

    The end of summer is not necessarily a bad thing. Our family has more fun when the fall rolls around, because it is cooler! (NC summers are HOT) We had a cookout with my parents and my brothers family on Labor Day and celebrated my birthday and my nephew’s birthday!! Thanks

    Yes, we really did spend our Labor Day laboring over the destruction of our bathroom. That’s just not right.

    We always enjoy a family day together — playing in the backyard, camping, and/or a cookout. We love to make smores around a campfire!

    I shared my link. We took a hike at a park and then had a huge lunch at home. We barbecued hamburgers and hot dogs, and had corn on the cob, homemade potato salad, chips, baked beans, lemonade. For dessert blueberry cheesecake. YUMM. I didn’t take pictures of the feast but wish I had now.

    We had a wonderful day yesterday. Husband grilled chicken, which was delicious. Kids and I just relaxed. The day started out with some excitement, tho…friends were bringing my son home from the beautiful Oregon coast after a weekend of camping–just across from our driveway, they got rear-ended! Thankfully, no one was hurt. Tomorrow my kids go back to school. They are both great students and eager to return to classes and friends. This giveaway caught my eye because Heinz is the only brand of ketchup I will buy. It’s what I grew up with and the tradition continues. If I’m dining out, I won’t buy anything that I like to put ketchup on unless I see that the restaurant serves Heinz. Thanks for the giveaway.

    We took a ‘day trip’ to Sam Houston State Park and did some fishing and hiking. We love exploring! We were all so exhausted by the end of the day, the boys didnt even argue on the ride home!

    We bought 4 trees and a whole bunch of shrubs for our yard at 50% off! We have slowly been working on landscaping this summer, so I am really excited for the new additions to our home! We got 2 of the trees planted and the ground ready for some of our shurbs yesterday – now we need to finish the rest.

    We always meet Grandma and Grandpa at the Sportsman Park Fishing Lake in our small town, Grandpa, Dad and the kids fish. Grandma and me get the picnic and snacks ready. We spend the whole day there and always finish the day with s’mores by a fire, Good times!!!

    Normally, our family goes out of town and camps but this year we had to stay home. I played in the garden and had a peaceful and fun holiday weekend with the family and we still have today to enjoy!

    Happy Labor Day Weekend!

    Reading all these other responses is making me want to start some kind of family tradition (my kids are two, it’s hard to do anything unless you have one adult per child!) .. but I have a LOT of work to do tomorrow, as I am organizing some big fundraisers for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Gotta get the work done early so we can have some fun tomorrow night!

    In the South, Labor Day Weekend always signifies the beginning of Football Season, not necessarily the beginning of the Fall (that comes a few weeks from now). I haven’t blogged about our football weekend yet, so I linked in photos of summer fun.

    Our town has the County Fair every year on Laboy Day weekend. So that’s our tradition. We spend one day at the carnival, and one day at the fair part. We eat yummy fair foods, watch the shows, check out the stinky animals, and look at all the fun stuff on display! I was really bummed this year that I forgot my camera!! i didnt get any pics!

    I shared a post about a book I shared with my son to explain a little of the purpose of labor day. We will enjoy the holiday with family cooking out and by the pool, but I wanted to explain the purpose for the party a little beforehand.
