Happy Fourth of July!

 We drove off to the cabin once again to celebrate Fourth of July!  We made a stop at Cava for a bite to eat and hit the highway to find that dirt road and long lane that we have so memories on!

The guys all decided to help clear off a bunch of trees because my dad wants to build a pickleball court!!!!  This is sure to add more fun on this cabin land!




We celebrated Austin with some birthday cake and candles!  It's always fun to have a table full of cousins singing happy birthday to the birthday kids!



And baby dear was there too!!!!!  Gunnar is such a good baby and we just love to hold and entertain him!



And we finally went together and bought an espresso machine for the cabin!  Nata made us delicious coffee drinks all weekend!




Gunnar is such a smiley baby!  He makes baby noises of cooing and gives us some squeals when he laughs!  He knows who we are and we adore him!!!!!


Fireworks were put off when it got dark but after one tipped over and sent sparks flying right towards us on the cabin porch, we all rushed inside!  A spark hit mom's leg and it was bleeding but didn't seem to hurt her!  Some of the children were crying because it scared all of us!  Next time, we will take more precautions!  Lot's of games were played outside!  Crossnet, volleyball and the guys played croquet past midnight the one night!  Each family has their own, same rooms!  We share bathrooms.  After doing cabin life as a family for many years, we all take turns making meals, bring snacks and it's a real party!

Happy birthday, America!!!!
