We were a smaller group than usual, but 24 people is still a crowd. Same as in past years, in lieu of preparing a breakfast or dinner for the entire group, I was responsible for bringing along plenty of desserts to share at night. I baked the week before the trip and took the family's favorite Monster Cookies, Brownies, and a few new treats that I'll be sharing recipes for over the next couple weeks.
We played in the water at Canyon Creek on our last afternoon and it was our favorite day of our trip. The kids splashed their hearts out and the adults enjoyed the chance to cool down. Of course, after we all cooled down, it started to rain and then proceeded to turn into a downpour complete with rivers through our tents. We wound up packing our gear and heading out that night instead of in the morning.
We spent a week at our cabin immediately following the camping trip. My husband hardly took a break all week as he was installing new windows and working on some other projects around the property. Our little home away from home has been in progress for over two years now and I love that it is coming together so beautifully. The sky was gorgeous the entire week we were there and I found myself clicking pictures of it almost every time we went for a walk.
I just realized I've never shared any cabin pictures here on the blog. If I get ambitious, I may dig out some before and after pictures one of these days. Let's just say, the place used to be a scary sight! I miss my cute kitchen already. However, as much fun as it is to get away, it is even nicer to be home again!
