My Heavenly Days!!!

Making Memories at the cabin (June 2013)

   

 

Just so I don't forget:

Peter on sleeping bag at the foot of our bed each night, and on our bed first thing in the morning
4 happy grandchildren running joyfully through beautiful mother nature
Hammock swinging
Backdoor banging, signaling the entrance or exit of "littles" in the wide open spaces
Henry, knowing he fits right in
All kids on the dock in swim suits and safety jackets with nets, goldfish, and pancake pieces in toe
Brave retrievers of current floating flip flops
Brave grandchildren!
Beautiful clear, cold river water
Performing at the gazebo band stand in Ennis
"Carianne's" beauty parlor for little girls
Behind the wheel, wide eyed kids take turns sitting in Julianne's lap, pretending to drive up the road
Sweet children praying at breakfast, lunch, and dinner
Grandpa and the "Boxcar Children"
Wearing little, carefully chosen Yellowstone t-shirts
Crafting, Wearing sweaters, Playmill, Mixed nuts and Fruitsnacks, Picnics,  Puzzles, Candy crush
     Sunshine, Mud, Howard Springs,  Canasta, Pink ice cream, Moose watching, Snoring, Bug collecting, Polka dot blankets, Mosquitoes
Community baths for kids
Bug repellent and sunscreen assortment by the back door 
Tent/fort beds for little girls
Craft night for big girls (thank-you, Vita!)
Open windows all night
June 23, supposedly one of the brightest full moons . . . it's always that bright
New trusts, love, and appreciation for each other
Caring Randy (Grandpa)
4 car seats in every configuration
S'mores and hot dog roasting nights, made complete with Jeff's jiffy pop trial
Canoe riding and raft floating
Fishing with Disney princess fishing poles
Wonderful food!  No one was ever hungry . . .except the "littles", right before bed.  :)
Hearing absolutely nothing but heaven when you lay your head down for the night

Quotes:

Peter:  "Go dah whay!" (as he "drives")
Henry:  "Da"  (Daddy)
           "Buh"  (Banana)
           "Ah?"  (Almost everything else)
Kate:  "Harold Believus"
Emmie: "Weenicorns"

     My mother (Grandma B) used to say " My Heavenly Days!"  
I'll never hear it again without thinking about the cabin.
These were Heavenly Days!
