cabin!

 fri morning i took the girls and nate to the cabin.  the plan was to stay fri-mon.  with mom, dad, cry, shawn, quinn joining us sat till sun for the annual kids birthday party.  jon and copper were coming on sunday.  unfortch, copper was sick and he was unable to come...

the kids played fri while i snuggled own with my book.  i felt like i needed a break!  a mental check out from the crazy week! 

 charlie made this fish scene for me.  the funniest moment was about 4 hrs into the cabin stay when char realized that she forgot her ipad at my house! and guess what???  she lived to tell about it. hahaha

 i found a deer track in the mud.  i think he was waiting for shawn to come. ha

 the kids rea, and played and enjoyed the cabin!
