Our time at the cabin in July consisted of rain, rain, and more rain. I guess a rainy day at the cabin is always better than a rainy day at home. The kids actually kept themselves quite entertained even though the weather was not great.
We were sure grateful for a warm fire in the cabin. The kids did swim almost every day but then they would hurry upstairs to get their PJ's on and sit by the fire. It is a real cozy feeling to hear the rain beating down on the tin roof and watching the fire crackle in the living room.
We were entertained by Carson and David Hudson on their ukeleles. It was fun to sit around and listen to them jam on their instruments.
Of course lots of games were played. This year the favorites were "go fish", "Monopoly deal" and "Bonanaza".
Even though the weather didn't cooperate we still had a great time spending time with the family.
So much of our fun at the cabin seems to entail trying to fight gravity but boy it sure is fun!
Mylee loves Black Jack. She takes really good care of him and is always reminding me that he needs yum yums or that he needs to go outside.
These pictures were taken almost 1 week post op. A lot of the swelling had gone down by this point.
We have a tradition at the cabin that we started many years ago. The kids get to stay up extra late so it is dark and then we break open the glow sticks. The music begins and the party starts. This year I took a few pics of the kids dancing with their glow sticks.

So today I took Jordan and his buddy Grant over to the skateboard park and they played around on the little ramps and stuff. Grant thought it was pretty cool. . . . until Jordan says "Come on, lets go give the half pipe a try!" It is an art for a little guy to get up to the top of the ramp. First you run up and throw your board on the top ledge and slide down and then the second time you run up and throw yourself on it!
