it was over WAY to soon!

Having my family at the cabin all together is one of my favorite things!  Thanks to all of you for putting up with cramped sleeping conditions, the flu bug, and sleep deprivation.  I hope it was as fun for all of you as it was for me!  Since I gave a copy of all my pictures to all of the family, and since the cabin internet is so slow and hard to up-load pictures with, I will just tell you all to visit each other's blogs and see all of the amazing pictures of our great time together.  Thank you for sharing your pictures with me!

I loved Wendy's top 10 things she loved about being at the cabin all together.  I decided I would add the grandma's perspective with my personal top 10 in no particular order.  I also had to add a few extra...because I can!

#10   Noah's baptism.  Way to go Noah!

# 9    Hearing about the frogs and fish (and seeing them) from Austin and Ty

# 8   Jake kisses and James hugs.  what cute boys!

# 7   Watching Lucy dance

# 6   Seeing Stuart lead the jogging group in the mornings with his sun glasses, hat backwards,

         and medal on; with Jackson close behind

# 5   Watching Grace swim.  She is amazing.  I can see why she loves swim team!

# 4   Seeing what Bryton and Ethan can do with a pile of legos!  Amazing!

# 3   Listening to Whitney play the piano while Liv played the violin.  They are good!

# 2   Sara's smile.  It can and does melt my heart

# 1   Having Mason just see me...and run to me...he gives great hugs, arms tucked and           everything!

I also loved the soccer game.  It has to be my favorite sport to watch...especially when it's my kids and grandkids playing!

The high jump was great, as were all of the events in the Bird Olympics.  The ball toss with the left arm was quite entertaining as well as the double dutch jump roping!

And then there was the parade.  Well, with Mel on music, and all of the kids with grandpa on floats, and with Great-grandpa as the grand marshall...what more needs to be said?

It is fun to have a swimming pool again.  I heard more than once how great the pool is because you don't have to apply sun-tan lotion or bug spray!   And just wait until it's cold and snowy! We are really going to love it then!

I am already counting the days until we can have another party!  Come any time!

I love having company!

As you can see, Bryton, Whitney, Austin, Olivia, Ethan, and Tyler enjoyed Spring at the cabin.  It was So much fun!
