Last weekend we had a delightful 3 night trip to the cabin. The greatest part was that there was no agenda, we just did exactly what we wanted, ate when we wanted, fished a lot, hiked, and just had an amazing time!
The kids played for hours on the shore... throwing rocks, finding crawdad claws, shells, and other treasures!
This little guy was holding on for dear life! Good thing little man is pretty tough!
At one of the places that we were fishing, there were lots of leeches... I'm not a big fan of leeches, but I imagine they serve some purpose, besides being good bait.
We did get to see some wildlife, like this coyote.
Then back at the cabin we did some fun crafts. I got the kids these really great kits for Christmas that come with pretty much everything you need. They are perfect for trips like this!
Daddy and Kimber put together a cow...
Dane's giraffe
Then a turkey!
After all that hard work, you have to make jiffy pop! This is one of those traditions that Dane wont let us forget! We have to make popcorn!
The sunsets were beautiful!
This was on a hike that we took to explore some State land. We just stopped to eat a snack.
Dane can always find some treasure to pack around. Here he is with a cow bone. He ended up bringing home feathers, a coyote skull, crawdad claws, shells, and an animal tooth. :) Good thing I'm relaxed about those things!
There was a group of sharptail grouse hanging out by the cabin.
and the snow geese are starting to make their trip back North.
I decided to sneak up on them to see if I could get some closer pictures
Once they saw me, the gig was up and they didn't stick around for long!
Clint did catch a couple nice trout too!
It was an awesome trip, can't wait for the next one!
