The Cabin

It's always fun to head to the cabin. lily and I have a hard time sitting still in the truck for so long but we know it's worth it.




I think I'll stretch my legs a little and get my bearings.

Opah showed Miele and I how to set up a tent so we could have our own fort. Opah, are you sure that's how it is supposed to look? I didn't think the door faced the sky.


I love when Opah reads to me. He tells funny stories too. It's so cozy here.

Let's go catch some butterflies and bugs!

A walk across the suspension bridge is scary but we make it over to the other side of the river.

Uncle Gene tries to feed Miele to the crawfish.

Sometimes, us girls just need to nap and this will make a fine resting place.

Got to dry out those bathing suits for tommorrow's activities.

Daddy, how about a little swing time before dinner? Please?

Mommy, Daddy, Uncle Tim, SuSu and Opah relax after a fine Baily Steak Dinner. While Uncle Gene shows the girls how to get a fire started using various flamable liquids.


An evening filled with large fires, drinking, smores and fireworks. What could make it better? GHOST STORIES! "Now I gotcha', now I'm gonna' eat cha"


Wake up everybody. We're ready to go to the pond!


Come on Daddy! We're ready to go to the pond!

Daddy let's Miele and I pet the fish while Uncle Tim catches crawfish for bait. I caught my 1st 5 fish ever!

Mommy dips Lily in while we go test the waters.

Yay for Su-Su! She brought all kinds of fun stuff to swim with. Now don't forget Opah, after you blow up the rafts with the car pump, remember to turn off the car or the battery will die and Daddy will have a long walk back to the cabin to get his truck that Uncle Tim and Mommy took back there to have naps.

Nothing beats a hard day of swimming and relaxing at the pond like some good watermellon

Except, of course, to do it all with family!
