This has gone down into the books as one of the best weekend ever....no theme parks, no crowds, no hurrying around...just good company, good kids (there were 7 total so that says a lot), good food and more laughs then I can tell you about. Good times... here is what the weekend consisted of...
We drove up to our amazing cabin nestled back in the woods..... 
I bought 200 water balloons, so the girls spent several hours filling them up.
...and it took 5 minutes for the water balloon fight!
...grilled out both nights. Fajitas the first night and steaks the next. We did cut cost a little and didn't buy the 'best' steaks for the kids.....we now know if you pay $7 for 4 steaks they may not be the best. Ours on the other hand were delicious! mmmmm 
....goofed off a lot!
......relaxed a ton!
...hunted for one of a kind rocks!
....had more water fights. Cody loves being on this end of the hose!
..... hung out with cousins!
....thought I got the best group picture of the kids....then realized Cody was not in it! 
....swam in the hot tub!
....goofed off in the hot tub!

....loving the water. 
....one happy little boy.
...put frogs on the smallest child there....sorry Cody!
...caught crawdads!
