Fall happenings at the cabin...

Our son Brice and the grandkids were here over the weekend to help get the

 dock and boat lift out of the lake. It was a fun few days of both work and play.

The cabin will some day belong to our children so they need to "learn the ropes", ha ha

Brice always carries the kids into the lake with his chest waders on.

It's a bit nippy out there, so he keeps them high and dry.

Games....

Scarlett has the remote to the wench, she's in charge of pushing the button that 

activates the wench to pull the boat-lift up on shore. 

Lew is finally old enough to navigate his own Kayak.

His Dad is close by to make sure he stays safe.

We love spending time with our littles at the cabin

I saw a neat idea on "Pinterest" a few weeks ago and tucked it into my memory banks...

We did "Nature bracelets" for our walk in the woods

You take a piece of double sided tape and wrap it like a bracelet on the kids wrists

 then have them fill it with things they find along the way.

Lew just wanted to take apart a pinecone and put the individual piece on the bracelet,

he is ALL BOY!!!

Then there's the GIRL bracelet.

The hike was fun, the colors beautiful and the company perfect.

He got his toes wet....crazy kid 

The kids have since gone home and Rick and I are left to pick away at the "closing" duties here at the cabin. There is a sense of peace with no hurry this year

It's called Retirement 

and we love it!
