A trip to the cabin

It's a peaceful place in northern Missouri that Patrick and the guys refer to as the hunting lodge. They go there to fish and hunt and do manly things. I go up once or twice a year and enjoy the peace and quite and the gorgeous scenery.

We'll we broke it lol. We brought the kids up with us. Peace and quiet I did not get, but hey we had fun. Me and the 7 Male types.

Here is Gabe in the tractor. Wesson didn't stay put long enough for me to get a picture. They were so excited about the huge tractor.

The big boys being Patrick, Chris and Greg were more concerned with getting a new roof on the Cabin.

We mostly working....there might have been a small photo shoot :)

Here are the rest of the guys shooting stuff, while the roofing was happening. Tony, Scott, Shawn, Gabe and Wesson.

And there was some fishing of course.

Life

Wow it has been so long since I have updated this blog. Honestly other than home renovations there hasn't been much going on. The other renter did move and the house is ours. We have been working our butts off fixing different things around the house. This is out other blog if you want to see what we have been doing with the house. http://rutherfordhomestead.blogspot.com/

In the meantime I've stayed busy with work and school as usual.

Patrick got a new job! He's working at Menards now.  We were so excited to have two incomes again. 

I took Gabe to the dentist for the first time. First they cleaned my teeth and Gabe was right in my face watching everything they did. Then it was his turn he got in the chair and they counted his teeth and gave him a new toothbrush. He was really excited and he told everyone for the next week how he had 10 teeth on top and 10 teeth on bottom. I'm so glad it went well!

Shawn started first grade. I think his favorite part is that he is old enough to be in cub scouts now.
