A Cabin in the Woods...

After a long few weeks and to celebrate our 16th Anniversary we decided to get away for a weekend to the Dells. We stayed in a vacation cabin in the woods which was PERFECT for us. It was a quiet home away from home.

We spent every night playing games. It was great to have no TV on, no phones or any worldly distractions. The kids found a new game they love...Pictionary! We had a blast and played it every night. What would family game night be without Settlers? This is a version called Zarahemela we borrowed from our friends, and this is Carl plotting his strategy.

The kids switched off staying in the loft. It was a great getaway for them to read and have some quiet time.

This was our first getaway with our dog Cora. While she was unsure of what was going on, she had a great time and even relaxed after the first night.
We LOVED the natural fireplace. We have a gas one at home, so we had one going almost the whole time we were there. I love the smell and crackle of a good fire. It made the days warm and the nights cozy! This is Kaitlyn, Cora and I.

We built many fond memories and will defiantly do it again. Thanks Carl for the wonderful time, and for taking the kids to the Kalahari for a day so I could have quiet time of my own!
Bye! Until next time...
