Fairview Cabin

Over fall break we decided we needed a little break of our own and headed to the Larsen cabin with Eric's family. We thought we would be there just in time to see the beautiful fall leaves but soon realized we were a little late and had just missed the vibrant fall colors. It was a major disappointment!

We still made the most of it and the kids spent every waking moment playing with their cousins. This headbands game was the favorite for the trip.

A cabin just up the road has this cute little playground and the owners let the kids play on it while we were there. They named it Coconut Land. It was my favorite moment the entire weekend.

We also went for many rides in the rhino while there. Trey at first didn't want to even go there but all it took was one ride and he was hooked!

And it wouldn't be a cabin trip without guns and fishing. I was dying watching Trey shoot the bb gun.

The rest of our time was spent hanging out inside reading and watching movies. The kids also made some forts out of tree branches and spent hours playing in them. I love how creative these kids are when they are together. Not one minute is wasted and they hardly spend time on ipads or phones.

A little randomness

In September we spent a weekend at our friends cabin in Logan Canyon. We have been going to this cabin at least once a year since before Eric and I had kids. This trip was super low key with only 3 couples, all of which had kids. It rained the whole time we were there so I hardly got the camera out, but Eric spent most of his time fly fishing on the Logan river while my boys loved playing with Stryder every possible second. Cambria played with her friend Lucianna and I got a lot of quiet reading time in. So peaceful and relaxing.

 

 

 

On our way home from the cabin we stopped in Logan to visit my Grandpa Bradley. It was so wonderful to see him and meet his new wife. That's right my sweet 93 year old grandpa married again (for the 4th time) last year.

 

 

 

 

In other news, Cambria turned 3 months old. Time is sure flying by with this little angel. All 4 of us can't get enough of her and fight over who gets to hold her. Cambria discovered that she loves her play mat and spends a lot of time chatting away while playing on it. She has quite a little voice. She sings and talks all day long. Cambria is such a good baby and seriously NEVER cries. I can probably count on one hand the number of times Cambria has really cried. She also sleeps all night long. She takes a lot of cat naps during the day (probably because she spends so much time in her carseat) but she sleeps about 11 hours at night like a champ!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I take way too many pics of this little girl. I have a problem, I know.

Labor Day

On labor Day we decided to spend the day up the canyon. We loaded up the RV and drove it up to the lake so that I would have a spot to feed and change the baby. We brought Jake, Katie and Lucy along with us and Grandma and Grandpa joined us a little later. It was a beautiful day as always and although it was a tad on the chilly side, that didn't stop the boys from playing in the water.

Here is Lucy and Cambria just hanging out while we ate lunch.

The boys each made their own pile of cool rocks that they collected.

Tatum decided he wanted to try to take some pictures and from here on out he was the master behind the camera. Not a bad little photographer is I do say so myself :)

It was a low key day but just right for us. I love that we can create fun memories with our kids with little to no effort having the canyon in our backyard.
