The Cabin Never Disappoints

I decided to take the kids up to the cabin yesterday.  I was able to move the piano lessons up to the morning and then we left after lunch.  It was nice to get out of the smoke a little bit and into slightly cooler temperatures. 

My parents came up earlier that day and then my mom stayed the night with us and then we took her home.  We were able to go on lots of four-wheel rides and we relaxed on the deck in the evening.  The cooler temperatures felt so nice.  I told my mom I ordered a moose sighting and then about a half an hour later a mama mouse came down from the back of the property with her baby.  They walked down and went straight to the pond.  They got a nice drink and then went on their way.  It was so fun to see, and the kids loved it.

This morning we cleaned up the cabin, had some breakfast, and then we went on one last four-wheel ride before packing up the car and heading home.  It was beautiful and just perfect.  I really thought that I would have gone up to the cabin a bunch this summer, but it just didn't happen.  I am glad that we were able to make it happen right before school starts next week.
