Cabin Fever











So my parents decided to build a cabin for all of us to go up to. It is going to be built up Hwy 80 just past Colfax. They closed on the land and all of us went up there on Saturday to check it out. It is 20 acres and it is great. The main top part is level but then it drops off. Towards the bottom is a river and where the cabin is going to be built is a gorgeous view. You are able to see the view of it in the picture of me and Addison. It is going to be so much fun. It is only a little over an hour away, there are plenty of trails to hike and it gets snow. We are planning on making a playground for the kids, a baseball field and have pool table and ping pong in the cabin. It will have 9 bedrooms so that the whole family could be up there at once. When we got there on Saturday we found out that on the adjacent property there is a couple who is building a cabin also. They have 4 kids that range from high school all the way down to kindergarten. So it would be fun to make new friends for the kids. We checked out the progress of their cabin and got even more excited about our project. We then built a bonfire, roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. I am so excited about it that I told my parents we wouldn't mind being permanent caretakers. I have already gotten ideas on how to decorate it. Once we start the project I will post our progress.
