Labor Day at the Cabin 2011

We were invited up to the cabin once again to celebrate Labor Day with Uncle Matt, Aunty Brooke and our cousins and boy was everyone excited!  Aidan told all of his friends at school that he was going to the snow, this was because we haven't been up there since Thanksgiving I'm sure; and what was up there but SNOW! I tried to tell him it was summer and you can't have snow when it is 90 degrees.

We got up there Friday night and basically just ran around crazy, to fun with cousins and three floors to explore.  Early Saturday morning Aidan got to go out fishing with Daddy and Uncle Matt, he was very excited.  The excitement didn't last long because Aidan didn't realize that you had to wait so long and then not even catch a fish.  We then got our swim suits on after breakfast and piled into the boat and found some shoreline to picnic and play.  And boy there was so much shoreline to choose from since they are emptying Shaver Lake out to do some dam repair.  It was fun in the sun and the little yellow raft that Uncle Matt had brought. Then after naps the daddies took Mikyla, Aidan, and Caleb fishing.  Who caught the fish, Mikyla.  Why, because she was the only one with enough patience to sit down and wait for the fish to bite.  But after the fish was reeled in Mikyla ran away from it scared and wouldn't hold it for the camera.  Then with Daddy's suggestion a big stick was found and the fish was continuously torchered, and each time it jumped the three kids jumped with a scream!  Then it was time for movie night and popcorn, Tangled was on the movie bill.

We ended the weekend on Sunday night and SMORES then after all that sugar what could be more fun than a big game of Simon Says that Aunty Brooke even got into, which was so fun.  And I have to say that the winning command that became everyone's favorite was "Get ME" and then the dog pile followed!  And then we naturally flowed into a group dance party with music from the 90's  and Aidan was the winner of the most enthusiastic dancer with his robot jive and rolling around on the floor, I NEVER get tired of watching him dance!
