Cabin and Cousins

Johanna and cousin Lindsay are best of friends and had a great two weeks together (Aunt Brooke made them all pretty)

Boys. Water. Mud. Rocks



The Cousin Catch-they all had so much fun fishing with Grandpa, Uncle Blake, Uncle Shane and Uncle Chris


Another hike, sorta. Our first and second choice hikes were washed out, so we followed a little spring until we found a decent spot for our hot dog roast. The kids had fun playing in the spring and picking wildflowers. We enjoyed hot dogs and smores.


Logan's trout was the biggest-he wouldn't touch it, so that's Cam holding it. We enjoyed Log's catch at a fishfry the next day-delicious!



Cam was very proud of his catch. All the cousins caught one!


Go Go Go!!! Here is a team of Thurman's during the "puzzle challenge" We had a game day with lots of fun games prepared by Blake's brother, Shane-with excellent prizes (not)



Cam and cousin Aspen with their prize-a plastic Alien


Grandma and Grandpa's "talent" was sharing stories from Great Grandma Della and Great Grandpa Melvin's lives. That jacket is one Della made for Melvin-it's very well made, and so stylish!


Relaxing on the deck after family pictures


Blake and Eddy workin' hard to keep their egg on that spoon


I was enjoying the afternoon reading on the deck-the surroundings were so beautiful, it was warm and peaceful. I wish I could really capture it.


Johanna and cousin's Sierra andLindsay performed part of Napoleon Dynamite's dance-they looked awesome!


We hiked with the fam up to "Intermittent Springs". It is an easy hike with a beautiful end. The kids could have stayed and played all day in the rocks and water.
