Every year for Memorial Day Jeremy's family goes up to their property (The Ranch) to camp, etc. Last year they built a cabin and this year put in a new, nicer outhouse. Jer didn't think we should come up, but I wasn't about to miss out on this opportunity. And I didn't want the kids to miss out. I am so glad we went. It was so much fun. Jeremy's Dad came from Nevada. ( He comes quite a few times a year. He comes to help work on the property and go hunting, etc.) The kids were so excited to see grandpa.
So here is the inside of the cabin. You can see the door and about 1/4 of the room. Different people donated some things for the inside. The rugs, table and chairs, and even a microwave. There is also a single bed and two pretty comfortable chairs. Jeremy's Dad insisted that I stay in the cabin (I was willing to stay in a tent) and he blew up a queen sized mattress for Logan and I to sleep on. (The girl is Kelcey, Jeremy's cousin. She is 19. And the boys are two of her friends. She slept on the single bed and her friends slept in the bed of their truck with a tarp over them, since it rained. They are funny kids. They played lots of card games with me!)
There is also a small loft upstairs. The kids love to go up there.
Here is the outside. Don't ask me why his uncle picked puck yellow mustard to paint the outside. It kind of stands out. Oh well. Jeremy's Dad bought a fridge this weekend. It's really nice to be able to put cold stuff in there. The inside was too full of all our stuff so they waited to bring it inside until everyone was leaving. They eventually will put tile on the floor, wood paneling on the ceiling and paint the walls. It will be so fun.
Jeremy's uncle David put up a tire swing for the kids. They love it! Also in the back ground you can see the new outhouse. It is built on cement and has to nice doors. One side is for storage. They just need to either get power to it or put some kind of lamp in there. Even during the day it is extremely dark inside when you shut the door. We usually left the door open just a little, or brought a flashlight with us.
Jeremy took us on two really fun fourwheeler rides up through different canyons on their property. The second ride was a bit bummpier, and the baby kicked when we went over big bumps, and I even had to drive through a big stream. It was fun.
Logan finally fell asleep, after talking to us for a half an hour. He ended up falling asleep with his fingers in his nose. The only nap he had was on first fourwheeler ride. He slept on the way back for about 15 min. We also say quite a few deer on our rides. The kids thought that was cool.
The girls slept on the floor the first night. The second night after Jer's cousins left, Summer slept on the single bed and Kylee slept on one of the cots. Jer and his Dad slept on the other two cots.
We watched quite a few movies on Monday cause it rained most of the day. At one point Logan actually sat and watched it, instead of running around and feeding everyone out of his pretend pot and pan.
Jeremy's Mom sent these dresses that she made with Grandpa. She is so talented.

Oh, sounds like a lot of fun. I keep trying to talk my parents into building a lodge or cabin on their property. Maybe someday. :)
OK how cool is that cabin? I am jealous. That looked like a fun weekend. The dresses that your girls had on were adorable! I still can't believe how big your kids are!
Ditto to Heidi!! I was going to write the exact same thing. I guess we must be sisters! Your ride through the mountains sounded so fun.
