cabin fun part deux

This week we decided to join the masses and try out the new craze called a "stay-cation". Maybe you've heard of it. {i've done it my whole life}.

Anyway, we went back up to the cabin. We spent the afternoon rafting with my parents. Matt and the kids did some fishing {nothing was caught, probably because Jackson and Lincoln were throwing rocks and whatever else they could find in to the water the whole time} and Kensie was a natural!

We ate a delicious hot dog dinner, mom and dad left, and we watched Twilight while outside it thundered and rained. Perfect! We had to leave the next morning because my uncle & fam were coming up for the rest of the week, so we packed up, did some more fishing, and decided to go on a hike {more on that later}.

I just ♥ the cabin. I have such fond memories {family reunions, mysterious (or not so mysterious) large underwear, secret hikes, spying from the attic on people in the bathroom, the Christensen's Weird Al routines.....the list could go on and on}. I'm glad my kids will be able to make their own memories there, and we live so close that I'm hoping there will be a lot of them!
