38 Last-Minute Labor Day Captions That Show What A Blast You're Having

Being lazy is OK in the summertime. You’re simply preparing yourself for the chiller seasons to come when you'll spend more time watching movies in bed and snuggling with your cat, rather than hanging out outdoors. Labor Day is typically when this transition begins, so here are some last-minute Labor Day captions for your backyard hangouts or moments when you’re casually reapplying sunscreen at the beach.

Saying goodbye to summer is always a bittersweet moment. But, you're excited to put on your oversized sweaters, light up your cinnamon-scented candles, and cook large batches of butternut squash soup. Sometimes, you get melancholy about parting with those long days of sunshine and your new “bike by the boardwalk at sunset” routine. Your hands may automatically reach for your tank tops and sneakers in the morning, but you know it's time to part ways. (Or, maybe not? Don't rush me, please.)

Your friends are truly not surprised that you're still deciding if you want to sip mocktails in your backyard, set up your own movie theater, or grab ice cream at the local parlor on Labor Day. Taking the start of the season slow is your jam, but that never stops you from having a blast. Lucky for you, your Instagram captions have already been covered, so you can focus on making the most of transitioning to a new season.
