The Cabin

We've been hearing about "The Cabin" from the Bades for many years. We've tried to organize trips to go before and have never been successful. Finally, this summer, Sarah and I just made it happen! It helped that our husbands didn't come, so we didn't have to try and coordinate work schedules. Because really, that was always the biggest problem.

We met in Rock Springs, then stopped in Farson for a Big Cone. Yum! The rest of the drive was not bad, except for some rain there at the end, which made the road muddy and rocky. But we made it!

I don't think I'll do a day by day log of the cabin trip. The pictures mostly tell it all. We had a lovely, fun time. The kids had so much fun with their friends, running around outside, shooting bb guns, playing on the rocks, playing on the hammock, and just generally having a fun time. One evening after the kids were in bed Sarah and I walked down to the meadow and enjoyed a beautiful sunset. A different evening we all walked over to a bench that is on the top of a hill and enjoyed yet another beautiful sunset. 

We only had one real injury while we were there: poor Jamison ended up with a fish hook really stuck in his finger. But not to worry, the dynamic duo of Sarah and Sarah put their heads and skills together and that fish hook didn't stand a chance.

Of course for Sarah and I there was much talking, laughing, some reading, napping, eating, and general awesomeness going on. We can't forget the epic game of scrabble that happened (I'm sure I lost, even though we didn't keep score), the night we sat in my van to talk after the kids were in bed because I was too chicken to sit alone outside in the dark while Sarah got her baby to sleep, the time I scared Sarah while she was preparing something in the kitchen, and the fire outside that I'm sure scared all those mountain lions, bears, and wolves away. ;)

We had such a great time, and I can't wait to go again.
