into the woods


We spent the weekend in Vernon bonding with nature and family.





Bear falling asleep on the hike/walk and his first quad ride, he waved his hands and bounced his head, loving it!
Shep fished a couple of time, he loves it, still no bites.
This was the only time any of the girls had to.... you know, in nature.  We were so lucky to be right by Chris' uncle's cabin, we got to use his facilities.
Shep was asked to go get the ax to chop some wood for the fire.  If you didn't know, Shep loves axes and took this job VERY seriously.

Anney's cafe Habana corn.  Probably the best corn I've ever had.  We liked wearing it too.




Meda & Elsie decided they were cooker girls, these were their aprons.

As we headed out we asked Shep what his favorite part of the trip was and he said everything but was sad he never saw elk.  Then there they were off the side of the road, elk.  He had his forrest angel with him.

  My favorite was when Travis and I went for a ride with Chris and Anney up to the beautiful Meadow filled with flowers, we had a panoramic view of the forrest.  Lovely.

Meda's favorite was when her and Elsie played cooking.

Bear LOVED eating all night long and waking up with us all right by his side.

Travis took the kids out and they saw a horney-toad, pretty sure Tmac was the most excited about that.  He enjoyed telling us all about it and the bloody eyes, but I think he just likes saying their name.
