Cabin

We headed up North to the family cabin for the weekend. We really hoped it would be a great getaway for us, but it soon fell a part and we came home early and exhausted. The short time we spent there was greatly appreciated!

We stopped for Chick-fila lunch and some hard playtime at the Toddler Zone. We didn't forget to get ice cream cones and milkshakes!!!

Cute kids ready for a long ride in the car.

We left during nap time in hopes they would sleep on the way up... no such luck.

Yep, wide awake...

At the cabin, picking wildflowers

My little lady

The boys on the porch rocking on the bench, so peaceful.

We drove down to Strawberry-Pine for the festival. We thought we would buy a flat of strawberries. I wanted to learn how to can them and make jam, until.... 

We relaized all the strawberries weren't local and were from CA. Not to mention $20 a flat... no thank you. I totally lost interest.

However, they had LOVELY strawberry desserts to choose from.

We pretty much had one of each!!

Mmmm, homemade strawberry shortcake.

Charlotte loved the chocolate dipped strawberries. B Man loved the strawberry float.

Cute kids in a meadow.

Who pretty much hated me taking pictures of them.

Walking to the car.

At night Kyle and I star gazed through a telescope on the cabin balcony. We had lovely food, wonderful cool weather (mid 70s-low 80s), long conversations and lots of cuddle time. We also had no sleep, a screaming Brady, a Charlotte who got stuck under the bed in the middle of the night, a bummer of a festival, the back end of our car all scraped up from being backed into a tree, and an early trip home.

Better luck next time.
