Cabin Week 2009

We always spend one week out of the year at our cabin in Island Park, Idaho. It is one of the weeks we all look forward to all year. We miss having Mike & Melissa there and look forward to when they will be able to spend it with us again. I can't say that it's very relaxing, but we always have good company, good food, and make good memories! My Grandpa used to own a resort lodge up in Island Park that burned down called Big Springs. We still go and feed the fish and admire the beauty of the land every year.

















Scott brings his dog, Brizzo, and wherever Brizzo & Scott are ... there is Josie also. She loves that dog and followed wherever he was and was always concerned he was taken care of.















The beginning of the week brought some rain and cooler temperatures with it, so we did a craft project one afternoon. Josie decided to cover her cup with black electrical tape while we did this-- and she stayed entertained for a long time with it. Who knew how exciting that would be? Why bother with craft projects?
















John looks forward to being able to waterskii everyday. We always have a good time behind the boat. We have to thank Micki & Spencer, who spent a couple days there with us for the good pictures. I didn't even pull out my camera this summer!
















And some of the best times we have are just sitting down on the beach. The kids love to swim and play in the sand. Jordan is so good to make a big sandcastle with the kids every summer. He is such a good sport and the kids look forward to it and remember it and talk about it all year.


















And here are a couple of extra pictures. My Grandpa built this cabin. We love it and hope that he knows just how much. We look forward to next year!
