Girl Weekend

...plus Wes!  Amy and I had planned to take her girls up to the cabin last weekend because the boys were all supposed to be at Fathers and Sons.  The Fathers and Sons overnighter ended up being cancelled due to rain (wimpy boys), but we girls still wanted to go!  Wes came too to get some work done, but he pretty much did his own thing while the female silliness ensued.  We went out to eat and watched a movie Friday night.  Saturday we played a lot of games, went to the park, and generally got goofy.  Lots of fun, can't wait until June when we have a bigger and better Girl Weekend planned!!

Let's Cruise!

Wes surprised us the other night with a new beach bike!  I like to think it was a late extra Mother's Day gift, but I will gladly share it with Kori!!  We love it so much!  It even has a little bell, and I'm going to pick out a basket for it.  We're totally ready to cruise around Bear Lake!

Initiation By Kori

Last weekend, Kori spent her first night at the cabin.  In true Kori fashion, she gave our new cabin her own kind of initiation!  Right after she got there, she went out for a run down to the marina.  When she got back, she walked into the living room to talk to me.  Standing next to the couch, she let her water bottle drop down.  She didn't realize the cap wasn't on, and water gushed all over the couch and floor!  We just laughed and laughed.  We know Kori has been there now!!

The Inaugural Sleepover

It was a weekend of firsts as we finally spent the night at our new house!  We've been working hard getting it ready and moving things in.  The cabin has had a few issues like broken pipes, heater problems and a leaky water heater, but things are coming along.  Friday night after we had been working and after the sun went down, Wes took me outside to see this!

It's our house!  And it looks like someone loves it.  I had too much fun documenting everything!

Here's Wes in the messy kitchen where we loaded stuff in.

Yay!  Actual furniture in the living room!

And yes, the couches are comfy!

This is my Grandmothers Quilt.  One of my grandmas pieced it, the other one quilted it.  I  love it so much, and I've wanted to use it for a long time.  The detail is simply amazing!  It is such a treasure to have.

First game of Uno after eating the first meal in the cabin!

Our first morning.  Karlton brought us the cute sign from California.

Wes likes his new adirondack chair.

The morning view from our front yard.

This is how the boat ramp looked.  Very muddy!

Welcome!

This was my goal on Saturday - get rid of the ugly Mexican kitchen wallpaper!

Going, going,...

... Gone!  Please tell me this looks so much better!

Karlton joined us on Saturday.  They were a big help, and they enjoyed a 4 wheeler ride.

Cute bathroom!

Wes worked on patching holes the plumber left when he fixed our pipes.

Pillow shams, check.  I am still working on quilts, they are coming slowly!

We decided we had more room here so we got one more bunkbed.  Eventually it will have mattresses as well.  Five beds in one room!  Think of the grandkids we can pack in here someday!!  :)

Other cute bathroom.

My other goal was to put the kitchen together.  We don't have everything we need yet, but we have enough to get us started.  We can actually cook next time.  And hopefully we'll have warm water!!
