We headed to the cabin for a quick weekend since we have an extra Monday off school and work. The weather has been amazing and it was fun to do some things outside. First off we visited Sarah's grave. My kids have gotten to love visiting and can almost find her stone without any help now. The boys helped me pick out the best flowers to take with us. It's such a sweet time to be able to visit and talk about the next life with my kids and how excited we all are to see her.
We got some good hammock time in this weekend. This has become one of my favorite things to do while at the cabin. Reading (or sleeping) in the hammock on a warm afternoon - nothing beats that!
We took a walk up along the bank of Deer Creek and let the kids throw rocks into the lake and dream of the days that we will be out there on the boat. They are coming quick and we can't wait!
We finished off our weekend with a hike up to Stuart Falls. It was pretty crowded on the trail being Memorial Day and all but it was the perfect day to hike! The kids did great although they thought it was pretty long and hard. It's a good 3 miles in and we were pretty tired and ready to get to the waterfall and have lunch and a break. Poor Beck got blisters on his feet so he was pretty sad. And Desh was just tuckered out by the time we got back. It was way past naptime for him! Overall it was great and the kids did really good. It's so good for them to do hard things and this was definitely one of those. Such a beautiful weekend to be outside and enjoy this amazing place we live!
