One more year, another amazing time at the cabins! We went to Meeks Cabins in Wyoming for the Matthews side reunion. We went last year and we always have such a great time! But even better this year, because Grandma and Grandpa could join us. Last year Grandma was still recovering from her many back surgeries, so this year was so fun to have them there with us! First day we got there, got cabins all settled then hung out in the lodge and listened to cousins Andy and Matthew play guitar and sing. Next day after lunch we went to the reservoir with canoes and had a great time there! Then a lot of 4-wheelin', fishing, a few naps here and there. A big group picture and then S'mores wrapped up the day. Then we got up the next day, cleaned it all up, said our goodbyes and headed for home. It was so much fun and such a relaxing time! And as it is always said when the Matthews family gets together...we are lucky to not just love each other, but we LIKE each other too!!! What a great family to b e a part of!!! Sorry to those who missed it...maybe this will make you feel bad and you will be sure to join us from now on!!!
Nice bath in the kitchen sink! I just had to include this one! This is how she is for EVERY bath she takes!

We forgot to take
Madi's easel...she wanted to paint something from the cabins so I told her to take a picture of what she would want to paint...this is what she took, not too shabby!
Dustin and Elsie think Dad is pretty funny!
This is about the cleanest she was the whole time!!!
Elsie, loving the swing!
Cassi and her buddy Nathan...when asked what they were doing they said "making mud with dirt and water!" Like that was just about the dumbest question I could ask!
Uncle Dave...a.k.a Aunt Babe...was tormented by these kids! But to be fair he did his share of tormenting!!! (Madi is also showing off her Hannah Montana clock given to her by Aunt Sandra)
One last shot of our cabin that we stayed in
She has been 'driving' it all day!
Please excuse the homeless-looking kids!!!
I painted Elsie's with bright colors-she loves it!
Madi painted hers as Herbie the race bug...I love the shadow of the driver in the window with her pony tails...
Cassi has a cute little face on hers...
