Working on the cabin

This last weekend, we headed to Antimony so that Chantry could get some work done at the cabin.  It was a pretty accomplishing weekend.  Chantry got some new stairs built for the back door and our gates put up at the entry way.  We had a septic tank put in and our water hooked up.  We will be getting power and gas here very soon and then we can finally stay in our cabin.  We haven't put a lot into it for a while, but are really wanting it to get done now. 

While Chantry was working, we spent the day at Grandma's.  She has a ton of leaves and the kids had a BLAST playing in them.  They buried each other, had leaf fights, jumped in them, wrote their name with sticks.  We played out in the leaves for a good 2 hours and they were in heaven. When we left our house Saturday morning, we had a few inches of snow and the boys were super excited to play in the snow.  I thought there would be snow in Antimony, so we packed the snow clothes, boots, etc...and when we got there, they had no snow.  Good for Chantry to work on the cabin....good for me because I don't love snow...but the kids were a bit sad, UNTIL they got to play in the leaves and they were as happy as can be.




















We ended up staying the night despite the fact that we had not packed or planned to stay.  The kids loved it of course.

those leaf pictures are amazing! i had planned for paislee to play in the leaves this fall and was so excited for it, but i waited too long because now the ground is wet and cold and i'm betting the leaves are soggy & gross :( oh well! there's always next year.
