Drew and I and the kids have traveled back and fourth to Coeur de Alene Idaho 3 times in the past 3 months! That is a total of 48+ hours in the car! So when we found out Kimbre and Matt wanted to bless their baby Cole a few weeks early - we thought, "Why not? Let's go again!" This time however did not include the stress of a fire test. Oh no. This trip involved a baby blessing, cousins, and 4 days at the Zirker cabin on beautiful Lake Coeur de Alene. Time to play!

| Riley - She is getting so big! |
 |
| The food was amazing. Kimbre made french toast and everyone kept asking for leftovers throughout the week. That's when you know it's good. |
 |
| This was our view every morning. The Zirker family actually owns 2 cabins. One is named The Cabin, and the other is The Bunk House. The bunk house has one bedroom for Nana & Papa, and then a great room with 12 bunk beds where all the kids slept. Best slumber party ever! |
 |
| Ashley - one of my beautiful sisters! |
 |
| Brycen and his buddy - Dallas! |
 |
| The highlight of the trip was Uncle Jayson's boat and the enormous tube! We actually got all 5 of us on at once. AS you can see, Carter was not thrilled. |
 |
| Those of us more serious about tubing went for more wild rides. At one point Ashley, Jett and I went for a crazy ride and ultimately flipped over. Apparently I flew about 20 ft in the air before crashing into the cement-like water. Ugh! |
 |
| Two of my favorite people in the whole world! |
 |
| Riley in her favorite shirt! |
 |
| Carter - not quite naked this time - but he's got his socks and shoes. This kid wanted to throw rocks in the lake ALL DAY! Total boy! |

 |
| Carter DID NOT like the boat, but I managed to get this pic - minus the terror on his face. Next to Carter is cousin Charlotte. She loves the boat and is soooo adorable! |
 |
| You can't go to the lake without a little fishing with Nana! As you can see, Brycen was excited to catch the fish - but unwilling to get any closer to it. |
 |
| This picture captured the theme of our trip to the cabin: Time-to-Play! We all had a blast. |
A special thank you to everyone for coming, and to Matt and Kimbre for reserving the cabin for all of us to enjoy. This was an awesome trip and we were all so sad when it came to an end. Spending time with cousins is always the best - and I love being with my sisters! Love to you all - Now let the laundry begin... :)

Sooo jealous! Love all the pictures! Miss you guys! Maybe one of these times we can all meet in Vegas, or go camping somewhere in the middle in Utah.
